If you're looking for true privacy AND proximity versus high density living, here it is! Tucked into a dense canopy of fragrant, mature Piñon & Cottonwood trees, this custom retreat adjoins community owned open space that connects directly to public land for endless adventure right out your back door. The open-concept living space is framed by vaulted tongue-and-groove pine ceilings, hand-crafted rustic wood accents, natural slate tile, and a cozy wood-burning stove set against custom stonework. Massive picture windows seamlessly connect the elements by bringing sweeping, snow-capped mountain views right into your great room. The multi-level deck out back features a built in hot tub and a fire pit area and the home is powered by an owned (not leased!)7.9 kW Canadian Solar PV System (20 panels + SolarEdge inverter) making electric bills $very low to near zero$. An active sub-slab depressurization radon mitigation system is already installed and operating The 25' x 28' garage w/ 8' tall doors has plenty of room for all the gear -- and all of this is on nearly three acres, just a few minutes out of downtown Salida. This HOA DOES ALLOW keeping a camper/boat on site while the adjacent HOA does NOT allow it -- plenty of elbow room for outdoor storage here! It truly feels like a private getaway with skiing, rafting, fine dining, fishing or biking just a few minutes out your front door.
