The entire Four Corners area provides endless activities for the outdoor sports enthusiast. The area population is 45,000.

HOME DETAILS:
The comfortable and quaint 1800+ sq. ft. 3 bed / 2 bath plus office home boasts vaulted T&G ceilings, slate floors, slab granite countertops with full backsplash, ornamental Mexican copper sinks, and large River Rock stone wood burning fireplace, all incorporated into a functional and easily navigated layout. This is an exceptional home to raise a family or use as a vacation retreat property.
The sunken living room has many windows looking out directly to the snowcapped 13,000 ft. La Plata Mountains, rolling foothills, winding La Plata River, and deep trout pond. You can watch amazing sunrises and sunsets from the windows off the front of the living room that turn the Colorado sky from brilliant hues of yellow and orange to bright blues and finally muted purples. A wood burning fireplace will keep you cozy on cool nights.
The kitchen and dining room are located off the living room. The deep copper sink, slab granite countertops with full backsplash, and slate flooring give this kitchen an inviting feel. Other features include a wine cooler, hanging pot rack, and buffet area. There is plenty of space in the dining room for holiday feasts, and additional eat-in bar area between the kitchen and dining room for casual meals. Sliding patio doors off the dining room lead to a large deck that overlooks the river and pond, with steps down to the yard and hot tub – a great place to take in those excellent views.
The master bedroom is on the main level, with a built-in window seat, has an adjacent full bath with updated fixtures, copper sinks and slate floors. Down the hall is a conveniently located laundry room. A second bedroom or office is also located on the main floor near the main foyer. The upper level offers two additional bedrooms and a nicely finished full bathroom. There is ample storage in the closet areas of both upstairs bedrooms.
While the basement is not fully finished, it does provide a great recreation space including a media area, extra area for a bedroom, workout area, crawlspace storage, a sauna, and door leading to the outside hot tub. The owners have contemplated expanding the basement level to include a full walkout with French doors, three car garage with workshop and finished bedroom.
The owners have spent years developing the beautiful flower bed and landscaping that surrounds the home and circular drive. In the spring and summer months, there are brilliant hues of a full range of the color spectrum as you approach the home. Rock beds bordering the driveway have been hand placed over the years as well. Plenty
