Metro Denver Luxury Homes For Sale

Property Description

Surrounded by trees and quiet, this one-of-a-kind octagonal mountain home is thoughtfully set into its natural surroundings, offering privacy and a true sense of escape.

Inside, the main level features an open-concept, circular layout designed to flow naturally around the center of the home. Windows wrap around the space, providing forest views in every direction and filling the home with natural light. The vaulted living area, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, creates a warm and inviting gathering space and connects seamlessly to the outdoor balcony and additional living areas.

The central staircase defines the layout, with the dining area positioned beneath it at the heart of the home. The main level also includes a half bath, a utility room with washer and HVAC, and a kitchen with a gas cooktop and mountain views from the sink. A second, more private living area offers flexibility for relaxing or unwinding.

Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms with peaceful forest views are connected by a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom. An open loft at the top of the stairs, currently used as an office, overlooks the living space below and is filled with natural light.

Set on just over two acres with no HOA, the property offers space, privacy, and flexibility for future possibilities.

The home is equipped with its own solar power system, propane, private water well, and backup generator—all owned and included—providing efficient, reliable, and self-sufficient living with added peace of mind.

Whether used as a full-time residence or a private mountain retreat, this home delivers character, comfort, and a truly unique Colorado mountain living experience.

From the Peak to Peak Highway (State Highway 72), turn onto County Road 103 (CR103). Turn left onto County Road 100 (CR100). Turn right onto County Road 100J (CR100J). Continue on CR100J. Google Maps will route you to the general area, but once on Hard Way, you will need to turn left onto CR100J, then take the first right after passing the neighbors cabin onto the easement/private driveway. Follow the easement driveway to 189 Hard Way Road. For clarity, please download and review the Driving Directions PDF in the MLS attachments, which includes a visual map of the final approach. All-wheel drive can be helpful during winter months; the private road is plowed and maintained.
