Welcome to the crown jewel of Ruedi Shores. Set on a massive 1.3-acre footprint on lower McLaughlin Lane it holds the title as the largest remaining lot in the entire community offering a rare, expansive canvas for your dream mountain retreat.
Positioned on a prime, flat-to-gentle build site, this lot boasts what few others can: guaranteed, forever-unobstructed views looking directly out over the glittering waters of Ruedi Reservoir and the surrounding peaks. IFYKYK, living above Ruedi Reservoir isn't just about the scenery - it's an alpine lifestyle cheat code.
Launch your boat, paddleboard, or sailboat within minutes. You're also just one mile from the legendary Gold Medal fly fishing on the Frying Pan River.
4-Season Playground: Direct access to endless hiking, mountain biking, snowmobiling, and backcountry skiing right from your doorstep.
The Valley Shortcut: In the summer, take the back-road 4WD shortcut over to Eagle and Vail skipping highway traffic entirely.
Peace & Proximity: Enjoy total peace, dark night skies, and abundant wildlife, all while staying just 30 minutes from Downtown Basalt's top-tier dining and 45 minutes from world-class skiing in Aspen/Snowmass.
Property Highlights: Retaining wall installed, 200 amp electricity, permitted 1,250 gallon septic tank for a 4-bedroom home installed, and municipal water, completed survey and preliminary plans for home available.
The absolute best lot in Ruedi Shores won't stay secret long. Start planning a front-row seat to the best views in the valley.
