Property Description

Hubert's Fishing Hole! Rare riverfront estate on the Taylor River in Whitewater Estates — where Gold Medal waters meet Colorado mountain living at its finest. Tucked within a breathtaking canyon stretch, this 1.56-acre property offers ~140 ft of private river frontage extending to both banks — an increasingly scarce distinction along one of the West's most celebrated tailwater fisheries. Granite outcroppings, mature aspens, and lodgepole pines frame every view, while the river's sound and motion are a constant, beautiful presence. To truly appreciate the rarity here: this is just 1 of approximately 65 true riverfront homes (excluding resorts) along a 20-mile stretch of the Taylor between Almont and Taylor Dam. Most never come to market — passed quietly from generation to generation — making this an exceptional and unusual opportunity. RESIDENCE: 3 BD | 2 BA showcasing hardwood floors throughout, tall ceilings with quality trimwork, and expansive windows that pull the landscape inside. Two living areas each feature their own heat source — a woodstove and a propane fireplace — creating warm, inviting spaces year-round. The large gourmet kitchen offers cherry cabinetry and stainless appliances, complemented by a formal dining area. The private primary suite is a true retreat, complete with dual sinks, a Jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, and generous walk-in closet. Elevated above the river and nestled among the pines, the home delivers an unmistakable treehouse feel. Handicap accessible. OUTDOOR LIVING: The expansive deck is pure Colorado — spend your days watching rafters drift by and falling asleep to the sound of the river. The grounds are intentionally left in their natural, wooded state: a diamond in the rough ready for the right buyer to make it their own. A newer detached 2-car garage provides ample room for UTVs and all the gear that comes with canyon living. FISHING ACCESS: Step off the deck and make your way down to the river, or take the easy walk down the private homeowner road just one lot away, leading directly to the riverbank, prime fishing holes, and coveted runs. Right out front, giant boulders create natural structure and ideal habitat for trophy trout. Whitewater Estates ownership includes ~½ mile of shared private waters, plus access to nearby public stretches — world-class fly fishing, literally at your door. The Taylor River is celebrated for its consistent flows, exceptional clarity, and thriving trout populations. LOCATION: Taylor Canyon surrounds you with stunning rock formations while keeping both Crested Butte and Gunnison within easy reach. Riverfront properties of this caliber rarely surface. This is your chance to own a piece of one of Colorado's most iconic rivers. ADDITIONAL NOTES: Septic pumped and inspected 6/2026 — reports available. A bridge on the property serves as an access easement for the neighbor across the river only; no bridge access is conveyed to the buyer. Some listing photos have been digitally enhanced for lighting, staging, and decluttering purposes.
