74 Candlelight Lane

"The Coop" at 74 Candlelight Lane sits on Cranor Ski Hill with direct ski access, mountain views, and a private backyard. It is one of the few properties on the hill that actually lives as good as it skis. The home offers 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms across two levels. Upstairs, the main living area flows between an open kitchen, dining, and living room, with large windows that frame views of Ohio Creek and the Anthracite Range. The kitchen has been updated with a new large sink, an improved pantry, and matching KitchenAid appliances. The primary bedroom is also on the main level with its own ensuite bathroom. Downstairs includes a common area, three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a large utility room with plenty of storage and a new washer and dryer. Built in 1981, the home has been well maintained and updated where it counts. New windows, updated bathrooms, stucco siding, and a metal roof keep it in solid shape. Heat comes from electric baseboard throughout, a pellet stove upstairs, and a wood-burning stove downstairs. The outdoor space is a genuine asset. The covered back deck looks out toward Ohio Creek and the Anthracite Range. The backyard is well cared for with a vine wall growing off the fence, large shrubs, aspens, and nice grass, all enclosed by a privacy fence that works well for dogs. A small greenhouse and dedicated wood storage make the space functional year-round. Cranor Hill is a public ski hill with a Poma lift, known for its laid-back feel and minimal lift lines. It's a great place to lap turns, learn to ski, or enjoy a quieter alternative to larger resorts. The road to town is an easy 7-minute drive through pristine ranch land, with Crested Butte under 30 minutes away. Come summer, mountain biking and dirt biking are right up Lost Canyon Road, with additional MTB trail access a short ride up the ski hill. People who visit the home consistently comment on how it feels — comfortable, easy to move around in, and a natural place to have friends over. That's not something you can manufacture, and it's not something that comes up for sale very often on Cranor Hill. Parking is available at the front and side of the home. Utilities include a shared well within the North Valley subdivision, Gunnison sewer, and Gunnison County Electric. The property has a strong long-term rental history and works equally well as a primary residence, second home, or investment property.
