Bella Vista
Details & Features
Bella Vista Estate is perched above Steamboat Springs with views spanning from the Flat Top Mountains across the glorious Yampa Valley. This one-of-a-kind investment property is situated on 6.01 acres with multiple residences and abundant amenities. Whether Bella Vista is operating in its current capacity as a premier wedding and family reunion venue, the property has unlimited potential as a private family compound. At Bella Vista, the possibilities are endless!
Located minutes from the world-famous slopes of the Steamboat Ski Resort and at the gateway to thousands of acres of public land, recreation is plentiful. Rabbit Ears Pass is famous for its epic snowmobiling, the bottomless powder afforded by backcountry skiing, iconic mountain bike trails, and unparalleled access to nature. The current owners have been diligent stewards, curating an environment to make the estate an incomparable five-star retreat. Bella Vista is ready for new ownership to impart their unique vision and create a legacy of memories for years to come.
Improvements:
The Bella Vista estate consists of four separate residences with 14 bedrooms and the versatility to be used as a “family compound” or as individual, private abodes. The five-bedroom Lodge is perched over the Yampa Valley with breathtaking views spanning from Lake Catamount to the Flat Top Mountains and across the south valley. The drama and grandeur of the view must be seen to be believed. The Lodge boasts a newly renovated modern kitchen, expansive two-tiered stone deck, game room, and multiple gathering spaces to accommodate large groups. Original to the house but painstakingly updated, The Grotto is a spacious indoor hot tub room with windows encompassing the valley’s epic views. Soaking in the Grotto feels like floating above the Yampa Valley.
The Cottages are two apartments, each with two bedrooms. The lower level is ADA-compliant with a renovated spa-style bathroom, while the upper residence features a wood-burning fireplace and a picture window that perfectly frames Lake Catamount.
Named for its perfectly captured views, the Overlook is a three-bedroom home with an ample covered deck. Tall windows and vaulted ceilings invite the outdoors in and emphasize the vista beyond. Serving as the property headquarters, the Overlook also contains a two-bedroom caretaker apartment with a separate entrance, an office, and storage.
Business/Investment Opportunity
Capitalizing on Colorado’s most unique and awe-inspiring view, current ownership has established Bella Vista as one of Colorado’s premier vacation homes and destination wedding venues. The stage is set for the next operator to hit the ground running. Well over $1,000,000 in capital improvements allow new ownership to focus on growing the established brand with minimal interruptions. Bella Vista is uniquely positioned to take advantage of Steamboat’s new national recognition as a premier winter and summer destination.
