A unique opportunity in the Town of Crested Butte: a charming home in one of the community's favored corners, with an approved future already in hand. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom ranch offers single-level living on a private lot with a fenced backyard, a detached 1-car garage, and off-street parking for up to four vehicles- a combination that's incredibly hard to find in Town. Comfortable and well-positioned, the home retains the timeless character and simplicity that define classic Crested Butte. But what truly sets this property apart is the opportunity that comes with it. Designed by renowned local architect, Andrew Hadley, and approved by both the Town of Crested Butte and BOZAR, the included plans allow for a seamless expansion and reconfiguration into a 1,999 square foot residence with a 257 square foot garage. An additional third level- excluded from the total square footage per Town's official FAR- includes a finished entertainment space/2nd living area and a half bath, offering exceptional flexibility for family and guests. Additionally, the home's existing gas service is grandfathered in, preserving the option for a gas fireplace and gas appliances under the Town's current electrification requirements- an increasingly uncommon advantage for new construction in Crested Butte. The setting delivers on both sides of the equation. Located in one of Crested Butte's quietest pockets- removed from the bustle yet minutes from it all- with Elk Avenue's shops and restaurants, the free ski shuttle, the rec path, and some of the valley's most memorable hiking and biking all a short walk away. Whether your perfect day begins on the ski slopes or on two wheels, this location puts the very best of Crested Butte at your doorstep. Enjoy the home exactly as it is today, or take advantage of the time and certainty that come with approved plans to create something exceptional.
