About this home
Welcome to 1315 Ruedi Creek Road, where the true Colorado lifestyle still exists — land, water, forest, and freedom.
Set on private acreage bordering the White River National Forest, this property is defined by year-round water, historic craftsmanship, and recreation in every direction.
Ruedi Creek winds through the center of the property, feeding three clear ponds that hold brook trout and reflect the surrounding mountains. Wildlife is constant — elk, deer, fox, and the occasional bear — drawn by the creek, the ponds, and the peaceful seclusion of this hidden valley.
The home itself tells a story: built from mortise-and-tenon timbers reclaimed from a Civil War-era barn, transported from Illinois, and reassembled with care. Its south-facing design captures warmth and light through eleven large windows, providing excellent solar gain and a cozy mountain atmosphere.
A private spring supplies cold potable water year-round — clean, reliable, and free. The shop offers propane heat, concrete floors, and hot/cold water hookups, ready for any hobby, trade, or creative pursuit. Whether you're restoring a truck, building furniture, or just need space to store gear, this is a rare find.
Access is straightforward and solid — an excellent dirt road leads you right to the door. Though it feels worlds away, you're only about 25 minutes from Basalt, with easy access to schools, dining, and the renowned Frying Pan River, known for its Gold Medal trout fishing.
Recreation here is endless:
Fish or paddle on nearby Ruedi Reservoir, snowmobile in winter, or 4x4 over the Continental Divide toward Leadville in the summer. Cut your own firewood on your land, watch the sun rise over the forest, and fall asleep to the sound of running water.
No HOA. No covenants. No compromises.
This is a place for those who crave space, privacy, and connection to the land — where the morning coffee comes with mountain silence and every day holds the promise of adventure.
1315 Ruedi Creek Road isn't just a property — it's freedom, crafted by hand and surrounded by everything that makes Colorado, Colorado.
