Charming Chalet on 11.25 Acres

In Silver Cliff Ranch, where the horizon feels wide and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains hold your attention all day long, this chalet-style home delivers the kind of Colorado setting people move here for, plus the practical spaces that make it easy to actually live and work on acreage. Set on 11 acres and only minutes from Westcliffe, the property offers room to breathe without feeling cut off from town.

The home welcomes you with warm wood ceilings, soaring volume, and an open main living area framed by expansive windows that keep the mountain views front and center. It is the kind of space that naturally slows the pace, whether you are settling in with a book, sharing a meal, or simply watching the light move across the range. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room and adds a cozy focal point when the weather turns cooler, while sliding doors open to the wraparound deck, making it easy to step outside and take in the big-sky backdrop whenever you want.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the main level with wood cabinetry, generous counter space, and an island that works for everyday prep, casual dining, and gatherings that feel effortless rather than formal. The flow between kitchen, dining, and living keeps the home connected and comfortable, with views that stay present from nearly every angle.

Two bedrooms and a three-quarter bath on the main level offer a straightforward, functional layout. Upstairs, the loft provides flexible space that can serve as a second living area, home office, or creative studio, with an elevated perspective that makes the home feel even more open. The walk-out lower level adds real-world utility with laundry, storage, a small office, another three-quarter bath, and a darkroom or hobby workspace with a utility sink, ideal for projects that need a dedicated spot.

Outdoor living is just as inviting. The wraparound deck creates a front-row seat to the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and the covered patio gives you a sheltered place to relax outside in a variety of weather conditions. An attached one-car pull-in garage adds everyday convenience.

The standout feature for many will be the large detached metal building with RV-height doors, offering excellent capacity for an RV, a boat, workshop use, and the kind of storage that makes acreage ownership feel organized instead of cluttered.

This property may be a strong fit if you want sweeping mountain views, usable land, flexible interior spaces, and substantial outbuilding storage near Westcliffe. Call to schedule a showing today.
