This home sits on 10 acres with direct access to National Forest for outdoor sports including hunting, hiking, fishing or rafting the Arkansas River and there is wildlife on the property nearly every day! It was remodeled in 2008 offering 2618 sq ft of living area with magnificent views in every direction.
This is a 3 bedroom/3 bath home with 1) a extra large primary suite on the main floor 2) a heated workshop, and 3) a large bonus dormer room. (County regulations require listing as a 2 bedroom home, but it has 2 suites and a 3rd room with a closet)
Don't overlook this property!
Walk in through a unique custom made door and entry/mudroom to the heart of the home. The great room features large windows to take in mountain views, and has a Hearthstone wood-burning stove as well as a reliable and efficient Toyostove fuel oil heating system.
The kitchen has granite countertops and hickory cupboards. There is a large pantry in the utility room next to a bathroom with a stackable washer/dryer.
The office/2nd bedroom downstairs has a sliding door access to the front concrete deck area.
Walk upstairs to wonderful views and vaulted ceilings from the 3rd bedroom with a ¾ bath. There is also a HUGE bonus room providing endless possibilities—home office, guest suite, game room, or creative studio.
Energy efficiency is built in, thanks to two solar panels with a critical load battery backup system, permitting safety and lower utility costs. Electric cables and solar panel connections are underground. Two apple trees are maintained via drip system and the attached 3 car garage includes a fully heated workshop.
Backed by nature, with incredible views from all sides, direct access to public land, and thoughtfully updated for energy-conscious living, this home is more than move-in ready—it's your next adventure basecamp.
