123 Meadow Drive | Trapper’s Crossing Incredible opportunity at the gated subdivision of Trappers Crossing at Crested Butte. This is arguably one of the best 35 acre parcels in the valley.

Located right below the town reservoir and a short 5-minute walk into historic downtown Crested Butte, this gently sloping property has amazing southern exposure and is covered in mature Aspen trees which provide seclusion.

The property currently features a small two bedroom/ 1.5 bathroom house that is super cute with an amazing deck, fireplace, and small stream running right beside it. There is also a large, heated barn with two full bedrooms and a large bathroom, a small kitchenette, and laundry area. This would make an excellent caretakers unit or help you create a family compound.

You can consider many options on this property, from remodeling and adding on to the small house, building a main house, or any combination. Buildings are currently on well and septic but because of a water line easement agreement with the town the owner would have the ability to connect to town water and abandon the well. Opportunities like this are so rare with 35 acres plus the beauty and proximity to town. Look on our website for interior photos and more information.

TOWN OF CRESTED BUTTE

413 Second Street This is quintessential Crested Butte. The historic Kikel residence was one of a half dozen bars that at one time lined Second Street offering the miners many opportunities for a cold beer after coming down from the mine. While the old bar still remains, the house has served as a residence for over 60 years. There was an upgrade done in about 2003 that included a new foundation, wiring, plumbing as well as some structural improvements. There are 4 gas heating stoves as well as electrical backup. The home has 2 bedrooms on the main floor and 2 additional upstairs and a total of 3 bathrooms. At the rear of the property, a small yard separates the house from the historic, 600 sq ft log barn.

The barn, with Town approval, could be renovated for use as a garage or possibly an accessory dwelling. The property is within the R3C Zone, which, with a conditional use permit, could be used for a variety of business purposes.

real estate about commercial real estate When people think of Commercial real estate, they often picture tall office buildings or malls. The Gunnison Valley doesn’t have a lot of those, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t opportunities. Commercial investments range from apartment buildings, storage units, vacant land in commercial areas, office buildings and buildings or spaces for restaurants and retail. Businesses like restaurants and retail stores are offered for sale pretty consistently without any real property. Evaluating commercial opportunities is different from purchasing residential property so it is important to have an agent with commercial experience to guide you.

The property is 3.35 acres directly bordering the CB /Gunnison Airport along the southern side. The property is zoned Industrial or could be presented as its own PUD for the right development. The City of Gunnison was very supportive in preliminary meetings of converting this to some sort of multi-family residential development with potentially a commercial component zone.

Projects happening in the Gunnison Valley

by Katherine Nettles

The Gunnison Valley has always been rich in beauty and adventure, and over time it is becoming more dynamic and convenient with exciting new amenities to accommodate a growing community. Changes are coming throughout Crested Butte, Mt. Crested Butte and Gunnison to improve healthcare, travel, education and recreation, to name a few. This includes improvements, expansions and upgrades to the Gunnison Crested Butte Airport (GUC), Gunnison Valley Health hospital, fire districts, the school district and recreational programs.

Airport expansion The Gunnison-Crested Butte Airport (GUC) got a major, $23 million facelift in the past two years to modernize and remodel most of the building. The project is almost complete and carrying more passengers than ever. Highlights include new passenger holding areas, security screening, baggage claim, escalators, parking lot and overall improved flow for travelers, as well as geothermal heating and cooling systems, new electrical systems and “back of the house” items that improve general operations. In addition, strong airline numbers have drawn in the attention of a boutique air carrier, JSX, which now offers regular service for the second year in a row between Dallas and Gunnison, with connections to Austin.

GVH services and a new medical arts campus The Gunnison Valley Health hospital system has been focused on how to expand services since renewing its strategic plan in 2020, and it has made some big strides. With plans to break ground on a new medical arts campus this year, GVH has also increased its capacity and technology to conduct breast and colorectal screenings, cancer care, cardiology services, general surgery, and even dermatology. GVH also opened a pediatric practice in Crested Butte this year and has worked to improve collaboration among orthopedic surgeons and related specialists up and down valley.

The increasingly comprehensive emergency medical response system (EMS) includes Crested Butte EMS and Crested Butte Search and Rescue working with the Gunnison facilities and healthcare system for continuity of care.

GVH’s stated goal is to reduce the need for patients to leave the valley for the care they need, and to facilitate fast, efficient transfers to higher levels of care when necessary through strong relationships with regional trauma centers. Having expanded its behavioral health services as well, the GVH system also manages the Center for Mental Health which includes telehealth services.

Recreation and Met Rec The Gunnison Valley is filled with people of all ages and abilities looking for more ways to recreate and enjoy a high quality of life—both indoors and out. Mt. Crested Butte is adding pickleball courts to its regular tennis courts this year, Crested Butte is renovating the Crank’s Tank skate park and adding public bathrooms at Belleview and Third Street and the CB Nordic Center next door is adding a major new addition called The Outpost, to accommodate more events, programming, and to create a gathering space for the community. Crested Butte South released a parks master plan this year and will begin with a new community garden and eventually create new ball fields, a potential covered ice rink and even a sheriff’s substation. Gunnison County is also working on a Crested Butte to Crested Butte South multimodal recreation trail that connects to the rec path between Mt. Crested Butte and the town of Crested Butte, creating a hard surface path for recreationalists on relatively flat grading. The planning phase is currently underway, and the trail could break ground in the next few years.

The Gunnison County Metropolitan Recreation District (Met Rec) plays a hand in many of these recreation programs and infrastructure projects. It is currently developing a regional recreational master plan for the whole valley, which will determine what projects to focus on and where, so as to improve summer and winter recreation opportunities for everyone. This will also help focus its budget. Met Rec has two subdistricts - the North and South - and a new ballot initiative that passed in 2022 has

allowed the North subdistrict to collect additional tax funds for North Valley recreational programs and infrastructure.

Potential items MetRec is considering based on recent community survey input include more playing fields (and possibly turf), an additional, covered ice rink in the North Valley and on a longer term scale, an indoor recreation facility in the North Valley. The master plan is scheduled for completion in early 2025.

school district expansion and improvements The Gunnison Watershed School District passed a school bond in 2022 enabling it to take on a facilities improvement and expansion at the Crested Butte Community School (a K-12 campus) and improve safety, security, overcrowding and vocational programming at all schools across the district. CBCS has been bursting at the seams in recent years, with modular units added on as makeshift classrooms and even closets and hallways being used for teaching spaces. The project is estimated at $95 million and will include other, less significant infrastructure improvements across the district.

more There are many more things happening, from the Crested Butte Fire Protection District planning to build a new fire station and search and rescue facility, to a new bus storage barn for the Gunnison Valley Rural Transit Authority (RTA) in Riverland to support its record breaking ridership and increasing bus service, to a new hydro power dam at Taylor Park and large workforce housing projects happening at both ends of the valley, and at points in between.

There’s even a Natural Grocers moving into the city of Gunnison this fall, just as Clark’s Market in Crested Butte closes temporarily for its own expansion and renovation.

It’s an exciting time of growth and expansion for the Gunnison Valley, and yet, as hard as many are working to make needed improvements for the future, work is also being done to preserve the same sense of close-knit community, open space and mountain town charm that has made it so enjoyable to so many.

We cannot thank Reggie Masters enough for the care and service she gave us while selling a property and buying another on Mt. Crested Butte during the flurry of activity and the rapidly changing market on Mt. CB these past few years. Reggie was incredibly patient, attentive, and responsive to our needs, resulting in helping us get the best price for our property while securing a great deal on our next purchase. I cannot recommend her more fully. Thank you, Reggie, for your service, we are deeply appreciative.”

We met Ryan years ago at an arts festival and explained what type of property we were looking for. Over the next few years, he helped us find more than one property that was perfect for our needs. Sight unseen, we knew that he fully understood what our home would be, and he didn’t disappoint!” - Russ and Julie

BROKER PROFILES Risk and adventure. We are not adverse to either one here in Crested Butte. We thrive on it. It’s why we’re here. And while I believe your real estate experience should be a grand adventure I do not believe that it should involve risk.

You don’t get anywhere in life being average; it’s what draws us to this Mountain at 9000 feet. When you’re buying and selling real estate, especially in a resort community, you don’t want average. You want extraordinary. It is my goal to exceed your expectations to protect, advise and manage your entire real estate transaction. I will be your agent for life.

I have 20 years experience in real estate here in the Valley and in the Coastal Resort community of Laguna Beach, CA. I am a Bachelor of the Arts at California State University Long Beach. I have lived in Crested Butte for more than 15 years, depending how you count.

I was here in the 80s and 90s and I am back with my younger daughter and my Siberian Husky. I love skiing on bluebird days, cheering on my softball team, and hiking with my dog. I love adventure. I would love to help you with your Crested Butte adventure as well.

“

Dad John Biro would have been super proud for sure! His beloved former off-grid Mountain home closed today and was purchased by a family who has plans to keep the vibe and legend alive. Thank you Sandy Perrino and Jake Sunter for your steadfastness getting this incredibly tricky and complex one done!”

“

Sandy and Jake earlier this week did the walk-through, which was done via snowmobile.

I don’t have eloquent words yet tonight but it’s important to me to thank our amazing real estate professionals who accomplished the impossible of selling a home with only seasonal access in the dead of winter. Bravo, team!”
