As you turn into the quiet cul-de-sac this house greets you with a farm-style front yard featuring established water-wise perennial plants, trees, vines, irrigated tomato and flower garden, which lead you to the front porch. The large front door invites you into a spacious entry where there is room to sit down and tuck away shoes, jackets and bags before entering the living space that ties seamlessly between living room, dining area, kitchen and back yard covered porch. The bright and spacious living space draws your eyes to the small details that make this home feel so comfortable. The living room boasts a home theater system and efficient wood stove in front of a beautiful rough-sawn redwood accent wall that is sure to become the focal point on cold winter nights, although the raised barrel sauna may compete for your attention. The over-sized kitchen island will gather friends and family at mealtimes, and the French doors that open out into the backyard invite you to make use of this very private and irrigated lush space. The exposed aggregate concrete floors downstairs are easy to maintain and warm underfoot on cool winter mornings. Upon walking upstairs, you are drawn into the master suite by a large barn door that separates this oasis from the rest of the house. The master includes a sleeping area large enough to easily accommodate a king size bed. This area is lit by large windows that look out onto a hillside that abuts open space owned by the city. The large master bath with a beautiful tile, roomy shower and double vanity is perfectly appointed. Take a step out onto your own private balcony to relax after a long day. The over-sized master closet comes with extra storage above. An attached bonus area could be used as a library, nursery or work out area, with views looking out towards the La Plata mountains. The two additional bedrooms upstairs also have lots of storage and wonderful light from large windows. The shared bathroom boasts a custom shower with tub and tailored vanity. The laundry area has lots of built in storage and a large table above the washer and dryers for folding. The vaulted ceilings upstairs give you plenty of room to breathe. Built in bookshelves and storage throughout this house will keep you organized. The home is extremely energy efficient with radiant in floor heat throughout, led lighting throughout, water-wise toilets and fixtures, energy efficient boiler and water heater, and low maintenance exterior finishes. Conveniently located in town, within easy walking and biking distance of trails, the river, schools, and restaurants
