Property Description

Escape to the mountains without giving up comfort or convenience. Surrounded by towering pine, spruce and aspen, this beautifully maintained home offers peaceful Colorado living with community access to BLM land for hunting and exploring, plus easy access to the Great Sand Dunes, hot springs, Cuchara Ski Area and San Isabel National Forest. The neighborhood recently completed a community water system providing piped water to the home, with the underground cistern retained as a backup water supply. A thoughtfully designed layout spreads the home's four bedrooms across three levels, with two bedrooms on the lower level and one bedroom on each of the upper two levels, offering privacy for guests and homeowners alike. Fully furnished, Large windows fill the space with natural light, while a wood stove, forced-air gas heat and ETS (electric thermal storage) backup heating keep things comfortable year-round. Recent improvements include commercial-grade windows, energy-efficient exterior doors, new carpet, fresh paint, updated bathrooms, a new hot water heater, UV water filtration, fencing, retaining wall, room-darkening blinds and completed exterior chinking. Outside, a new 3-car garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, toys and gear, while a whole-home generator adds peace of mind. The corner lot features a circle driveway connecting two roads, and a truck with plow comes with the property for added convenience. Annual community dues are approximately $990 and include road maintenance, snow removal, water and water-system maintenance, and garbage service. Approximately one hour to Alamosa, two hours to Colorado Springs and less than two hours to Taos, NM, this mountain retreat makes a great full-time home, getaway or basecamp for exploring Southern Colorado.
