town of crested butte

mt. crested butte

Mt. Crested Butte is located two miles from town and is the home of Crested Butte Mountain ski resort. The base area boasts a number of shops and restaurants. There is also a year-round zipline course, mini golf course and kids adventure park. Buses and shuttles provide access to the Town and outlying areas. Mt. Crested Butte has many beautiful homes and homesites, but is also home to the majority of the condos in the valley. When considering a condo purchase, look at proximity to the slopes, amenities available in the complex and the association dues. The newest development is Prospect, a ski-in, ski-out area of 1 acre homesites.

crested butte south

Crested Butte South, or CB South, is a community about 6 miles south of the town of Crested Butte. It is often mistaken for a town because of the number of homes, but it is not incorporated. The neighborhood has many amenities for homeowners and community members. There is a fire station, playground, hockey rink, tennis courts, ice skating pond and groomed cross country trails. The commercial area has many available undeveloped lots and a variety of local businesses. Properties in CB South are generally less expensive than in town or on the mountain and can provide a great opportunity for homeownership in the area.

rural crested butte

Rural Crested Butte encompasses a vast area surrounding town in all directions and is comprised of a variety of smaller communities. Each area has its own unique character – ranging from 35 acre ranchettes to subdivisions with more of a neighborhood feel. They vary in terms of lot size, access, amenities and homeowners association rules. Rural Crested Butte has something for everyone including the Crested Butte Country Club in the Skyland Subdivision and the private airstrip at Buckhorn Ranch. With properties ranging from .17 acres to 70+ acres, this is a great area to explore.

The Town of Crested Butte is the quintessential Colorado mountain town. Most of the town is a designated Historic District, with quaint Victorian style homes, a variety of shops and restaurants, and parks scattered throughout. Within the town limits you can easily walk or ride your bike to Elk Avenue stores & restaurants. The lots are usually 50Ă—125 with a few exceptions, so to purchase something in Crested Butte is to have your neighbors close to you and somewhat limited views as compared with homes in the outlying areas. A free shuttle bus runs between Crested Butte and Mt. Crested Butte.

The Gunnison area is truly a great place to call home. The City of Gunnison is home to Western State Colorado University, Gunnison Valley Hospital, and GunnisonCrested Butte Airport. It was almost the capital of Colorado! Gunnison has a personality that is distinct from its smaller sister to the north. The city itself offers a wonderful variety of shops. Small boutiques line main street, and Gunnison has an increasing number of good restaurants, as well as a thriving arts scene. The area surrounding Gunnison offers rolling pastures, hills of sagebrush, and world class fishing.

The pandemic has pulled more homebuyers toward Crested Butte Buyers agree, there is no better place to weather a pandemic than Crested Butte.

If you have to work from home, why not do it where you can ski, bike or hike during your lunch hour?

Gunnison Valley brokers have seen an unprecedented surge in monthly sales, and know where rare opportunities can still be found.

With the ever-changing public health guidelines and more unknowns looming on the horizon than ever before, one prospect that hasn’t been dimmed by the Coronavirus pandemic is real estate. As many industries have suffered repeated setbacks during the COVID-19 pandemic, real estate in the mountains has experienced a surprising resurgence.

“When COVID hit last spring, there were a lot of questions.

Are we going to have a summer season? Will anyone be buying real estate? In Crested Butte, it ended up being one of the busiest summers ever. In terms of real estate, we were breaking records left and right,” says Molly Eldridge, manager and co-owner of Coldwell Banker Mountain Properties in Crested Butte.

“I did recognize, given the circumstances, that people were feeling really cooped up and would want to come to mountain towns, but I don’t think anyone could have predicted how many would decide to make this their home or second home over the last few months.”

Before the recession in 2008, Realtors sold the highest number of homes throughout the northern portion of Gunnison Valley with 65 home sales in a single month.

26

www.crestedbutte.realestate

Sales this summer and fall have put that number into stark perspective. In September, the area saw 91 closings. In October there were 88 sales, and even November was gearing up to surpass that once-monumental number from 12 years back.

“The sheer number of sales is record-breaking,” Eldridge says. “We’re also seeing a lot more multiple-offer situations and properties selling within hours of coming on the market.”

It all comes down to ‘the new normal’ What accounts for this sudden surge during what most would classify as hard times?

“What we’ve seen is a new normal in terms of flexibility,” says Chris Kopf, one of Crested Butte’s most successful brokers. “The majority of my clients are second homeowners. They are executives, business owners and professionals that are realizing they can work remotely. In the past, they might have thought, darn, I can only spend a week up here in the summer. Because of COVID, those time frames are extended. It makes it worth it to be able to work in a beautiful place where they can ski, hike or bike right outside their door. There was already a pent-up demand, and not having to clock into an office in Dallas, Houston, Tulsa or Denver, for a lot of people, that was the tipping point.”

Another side effect of the Coronavirus pandemic and its fallout is that people are re-evaluating their priorities and experiencing an overhaul in perspective. This has led many to the realization that they want a home in the mountains.

“Because of COVID and people being locked up in their house, their neighborhood or city, they’ve realized the value of being able to experience the outdoors and the freedom of the mountains,” Kopf says. “People were just cooped up, in urban settings especially, but even in suburban metropolitan areas—where they value the open space they do have. They’re realizing the huge value of being outdoors.”

A plot to make your own Like the rest of Colorado, most properties in Gunnison Valley have been on a steady rise in value over the last few years. While most have undergone an additional surge in both demand and price since the pandemic began, some properties are available for far less than their highest historic value. These uniquely affordable opportunities come in the form of land. Often overlooked for properties with existing structures, the inherent value of land in resort communities is unmistakable.

“Unlike other ski areas in Colorado, we have a lot of vacant land still available,” Eldridge says. “As far as prices, while they’ve gone up with every other type of property elsewhere in Colorado, our land hasn’t recovered from the recession and people are starting to realize there’s a real opportunity there.”

Not-so-hidden treasures One such gem is the Prospect development in Mt. Crested Butte Ski-in, ski-out properties are typically already built out, but many Prospect home sites are still vacant and located in a premier area for views and ski access. Their prices are shockingly less than half of what they sold for 14 years ago.

“When you think of areas to build one’s dream house, the Prospect development comes to mind,” Kopf says.

“We’re talking about ski-in, ski-out home sites at Mt. Crested Butte. At the peak of the market, there were eight lots that sold for over a million. One sold for $1.4 million back in 2006. We’ve had three that sold in 2020 for under $600,000.

So, when people say, ‘everything is on fire, you can’t buy anything here,’ I’d couch that a little bit. Not all prices are at an all-time high.”

Another prime location on the outskirts of town is Aspen Ridge at Lake Grant. Here, there are 12 new home sites sitting right above the lake, less than four miles from town and directly under Crested Butte Mountain. They range in size from one to 10 acres and start at less than $600,000.

“We’re starting to see more and more interest in land, but

the challenge with COVID is that a lot of people want to buy a house now. They want to put their head on a pillow in a few days. But there are certain segments of buyers seeing this opportunity and wanting to build. There are truly some great lots out there,” Kopf said.

Real estate in Crested Butte is a rare commodity Really, the only problem Gunnison Valley’s real estate market has to worry about at the moment is that there simply isn’t enough to go around.

“With a second surge of the virus and more economic unknowns, we have seen little slow down,” Eldridge says.

“The one thing that will slow us down is lack of inventory.

There are two reasons we don’t have inventory—the first is that people don’t want to sell. They think, ‘I could sell my house for a good amount right now, but if I do, then what will I do?’ The flip side is that people still think there is room for improvement so they are waiting for prices to go up. I think the takeaway in all of this is that it seems unlikely that prices are going to go anywhere but up.”

RURAL CRESTED BUTTE

Welcome.

Can you see it? Or, better yet, can you feel it? Crested Butte is not a place you simply observe as a bystander it’s a place and community you become part of once you decide to call it home.

Aspen Ridge at Lake Grant offers an unparalleled opportunity to live among the West Elk Mountains and their stunning natural beauty, while also residing in close proximity to amenities you might not expect from a small town at the end of the road. Amenities like a world-class golf course, a private lake, an iconic ski resort, a brand new Center for the Arts, a variety of restaurants and cafés, one of the nation’s most extensive trail systems, and much more.

With only 12 lots available, and much of Crested Butte already built out, this is a rare opportunity. Likewise, Crested Butte is a rare town where boundless beauty and a one-of-a-kind community will make you rethink just how incredible home can be.

Can you see yourself watching the sun set over Whetstone Mountain night after night, aspen leaves quaking from a light western breeze? Better yet, can you feel it?

Gunnison Valley Health is not just a hospital— it’s the heart of the community It is true that there are certain amenities that one sacrifices when living in the mountains. Mail delivery, for example, is slower and probably doesn’t arrive at your door. Wireless internet can be iffy in certain areas and Uber or Lyft rides are often hard to come by.

The healthcare system, however, is world-class.

A community-owned, Level 4 Trauma Center, Gunnison Valley Health (GVH) has won numerous awards throughout its decades of service. Originally opened in 1938, GVH has been ranked among the top 100 Critical Access Hospitals and one of the top 25 rural hospitals across the nation. Its Senior Care Center has been designated within Colorado’s top five percent of its kind and just this November, the hospital’s Emergency Medical Services were named Colorado’s EMS Ambulance Service of the Year.

“It’s not just a hospital,” says Cathy Steinberger, Crested Butte resident of 40 years, long-time real estate broker and board member of Gunnison Valley Health Foundation.

“Past clients, current clients, prospective clients … everyone coming to altitude, to a town at 9,000 feet, wants to know what we have available for medical services.

The reality is, we have fabulous healthcare. There are not many small towns with such a fully integrated healthcare system. We have a cancer care center, a birthing center, mental health services, and amazing specialists of all varieties, such as audiology, dermatology, neurology and orthopedics.

Great doctors want to live in paradise, too Not many people realize that as much as anyone else wants to live in a mountain paradise like the Crested ButteGunnison Valley, it’s also been a long-time dream of top medical professionals across the nation to one day seek a life in such a place.

“From our diagnostic radiologists to our board-certified emergency doctors, it’s awesome to be able to attract this level of talent, all these people who want to be able to live in a vibrant rural community and give back to it,” says Gunnison Valley Health Chief Marketing Officer Kylie Murgatroyd. “It’s a big thing for our community.”

In addition to its talented staff, Gunnison Valley Health is home to some of Colorado’s highest quality medical equipment as well as many state-of-the-art technologies, services and amenities that actually surpass those of numerous big city hospitals.

One recent example is GVH’s cancer screening and detection capabilities. Along with 3D Mammography, the hospital’s breast health care services have, through a partnership with nonprofit organization Tough Enough to Wear Pink, launched breast MRI technology, an enhanced screening tool that can detect more detailed information than mammography or ultrasounds alone.

Leading the charge in Coronavirus response The hospital has long served as a springboard for banding the community together and nowhere have those efforts been more apparent than in GVH’s COVID-19 response.

Local healthcare providers have worked around the clock to nurture individuals struck down by the virus back to health, administering treatment plans to outpatients as well as severely ill patients required to spend time in the hospital’s 24-bed facility. The Gunnison Valley Health Foundation also spearheaded a COVID-19 Support Fund that yielded more than $35,000 in donations and in-kind donations valued at $48,000 from the community and earned a $25,000 grant from the Colorado COVID Relief Fund that was immediately invested in personal protective equipment, safety and cleaning tools, life-saving medical supplies and patient testing materials.

“We’ve also been helping our local school system become safer during the pandemic through community outreach,” Murgatroyd says. “We’ve opened an all-community testing facility and while a lot of other counties have turned to public health for guidance through this crisis, public health here has turned to us. We set up a whole separate COVID department for testing and a Safe-to-Return app for our employees. For what some people might think of as just a rural hospital, we’re really on top of what’s going on and the resources available.”

Taking care of seniors As seniors and nursing home residents across the globe have suffered among the worst throughout the pandemic, not only because they are dangerously susceptible to the virus but because they have been forced to isolate from their families and loved ones, GVH’s Senior Care Center has made sure that its residents can safely spend time with visiting friends and family. The center has added a temporary add-on facility – the first of its kind in all of Colorado – allowing its residents to safely visit with loved ones throughout the coldest months when outdoor visits are dangerous or not possible.

“We really feel for our residents and their families. They need to see each other, but when winters can get down to subzero temperatures, we asked, how can we continue to do this? This newly built area is climate controlled and uses a UV light bot to kill pathogens in the air. We follow through with an odorless spray that kills bacteria and any harmful material on surfaces. Our assisted living facility will get a similar structure this winter,” Murgatroyd says.

No need to leave town for treatment A partnership with CareFlight provides prompt helicopter service to larger hospitals and medical facilities, the nearest of which lies 65 miles away in Montrose. However, barring certain conditions and some emergency trauma cases, Gunnison Valley residents and visitors don’t need to leave their community to access high-quality healthcare, whether its ophthalmology, orthopedic surgery, joint replacement, cardiac and hospice care or an emergency department staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“The hospital is key for people to be able to be comfortable here during every stage of their life,” Steinberger says. “The care you get here is so much more personal than what you get in a city. The same people who treat you, any of the healthcare providers, they are part of this community. You see them on the slopes. You see them around town. That really makes a difference. There are times when living in the mountains is challenging. But here, the first responders, the doctors, the nurses, they’re your neighbors. The community is always here for you.”

SEASONAL PROPERTIES Seasonal Properties Looking for an affordable place to build your mountain cabin, have a private summer camping spot, create a hunting retreat, or just to own a property somewhere completely “Off the Grid”? There are numerous seasonal access properties or mining claims in the Kebler Pass, Schofield, Gothic, and Tincup areas that might be perfect for you. These properties offer mountains, rivers / streams, trees, giant views and very few neighbors! The professionals at Coldwell Banker Mountain Properties are your go-to source for all details pertaining to these kinds of properties including accessibility, water rights, well issues, and compliance with the county’s land use resolution.

Mining Claims and Backcountry Properties The mountains surrounding Crested Butte are filled with mining claims and vacant land that is not being mined and may be ideal for your true getaway cabin. Mining claims are either patented or unpatented. Gunnison County has 1216 Patent Mining Claims totaling 22,524 acres of land - three times more claims than any other county in Colorado! A “patent” mining claim is a parcel of claimed public land which the federal government sold to the claim holder. The claim is no longer public land and both the land and the mineral rights contained in it become the property of the patent holder. These issues can be complicated so contact a Coldwell Banker Mountain Properties broker to guide you.
