Property Description

Priced to sell fast at $499,000! This solid 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom mountain home in quiet Sargents offers the ultimate affordable Rocky Mountain adventure basecamp. Built in 1979 with approximately 1,691 sq ft on a 0.29-acre lot, the property sits just 12 miles from Monarch Mountain—Colorado's last privately owned ski resort known for its family-friendly slopes, uncrowded powder, and authentic vibe. It's steps from historic mining heritage in the Monarch Mining District and minutes from thousands of miles of 4x4/OHV trails plus excellent hunting grounds in GMU 551. Enjoy easy access to the artsy amenities of Salida and the conveniences of Gunnison, both roughly 32 miles away. The home sits within walking distance from the Tomichi Creek Trading Post, a full service gas station with a restaurant, bar, and mini liquor store. With year round access, and just blocks from highway 50, this location is prime! The welcoming front yard with mountain views and a covered front porch features a removable mudroom. The spacious, open rooms with large living areas are perfect for entertaining. Rest easy in the primary bedroom, with beautiful wood vaulted ceilings with rustic log beams. The home offers strong bones and several recent improvements, including remodeled bathrooms (2023) with ceramic tile, new toilets, vanities, flooring, and a new tub in one bath. The guest bedroom/office was updated in 2023, and new flooring/base was added in the garage bonus room in 2025. A generator hookup is in place for added reliability in this mountain setting. Investor and remodeler's dream in builder-friendly Saguache County. Unlike neighboring Chaffee or Gunnison Counties, Saguache county is significantly more amenable for remodeling, updates, or additions—including Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) up to 600–1,400 sq ft depending on lot specifics. This property is ideal for hands-on buyers ready to personalize interiors while capitalizing on its prime recreational location. New well drilled in 2024 and hooked up in 2025, water purification system to be installed in May 2026. Septic system pumped and inspected in September 2025, with updated piping. Low maintenance metal roof. Fresh exterior paint completed in 2025. Insulated bonus room (approximately 12x14) adjacent to the oversized 2-car detached garage (24x36 with electric)—perfect for side-by-side/UTV storage, gear, or a workshop. Heating options include two pellet stoves, a gas furnace (ducts cleaned in 2023), and baseboard heat in parts of the home. A new gas hot water heater was installed in 2022. Whether you're seeking a weekend getaway for skiing, 4x4 adventures, and hunting or a full-time mountain lifestyle with room to expand, 42 Front Street delivers exceptional value in one of Colorado's most authentic outdoor playgrounds. Turn this well-located property into your personalized Rockies retreat—schedule a showing today before it's gone!
