About this property
Happy Place off Elk.#007042
Experience Crested Butte the way it was meant to be—staying in a beautiful downtown home just one block from historic Elk Avenue.
Thoughtfully redesigned great room with high-end finishes while preserving the charm of one of Colorado's most beloved mountain towns, our home offers the perfect balance of comfort, style, and location. Spend your mornings walking to Camp 4 Coffee, browse the shops and galleries along Elk Avenue, enjoy dinner at one of Crested Butte's outstanding restaurants, then return home to gather around the private firepit on the patio under the stars during the warmer seasons or the fireplace during the winter.
Inside, the home has been carefully appointed with beautifully furnished living spaces designed for relaxing after a day on the slopes, trails, or river. The newly renovated main level provides an inviting place for family and friends to cook, dine, play games, or simply enjoy time together. An upper-level deck off the primary bedroom offers a peaceful spot to start the day with coffee or unwind in the evening.
Whether you're here to ski, hike, mountain bike, fish, kayak, or experience Crested Butte's renowned festivals, you'll appreciate being able to leave the car behind. Walk to shops, restaurants, galleries, and the free shuttle to Crested Butte Mountain Resort, with easy access to hiking and biking trails throughout the valley.
The home comfortably accommodates families and small groups with four bedrooms, including a bunk room that's a favorite with children. It's an ideal setting for creating memorable mountain vacations in every season.
If you're looking for an authentic Crested Butte experience—a private, beautiful home in the heart of town rather than a typical condo—this is the place.

Hosted by Michael Alan Gottlieb
My wife is a marketing consultant and I am a physician from Pittsburgh.We spent many years vacationing in various Western mountain towns with our two sons.As the years went on, we began to entertain the idea of owning home in one of these places,but none felt quite right.After spending literally 5 minutes in Crested Butte, we knew that we had found our “happy place”.We were taken by the quaintness, charm, striking beauty of the town;the friendliness, acceptance and warmth of everyone that we met;the overall laid back feeling;the incredible number and variety of activities in every season for all levels of ability ;the wonderful assortment of restaurants,coffee shops,stores,arts/music community...the list is ever expanding .We eventually bought this home and would one day like to retire here,but in the meantime would like to share our home with you.We, along with our local host,guest experience and property manager Apryl,will do whatever it takes to ensure that your stay is wonderful and unforgettable.This is truly a magical place and we hope that you will agree!
