203 S 8th Street, Dolores, CO 81323

Oh, joy! Such a great location in the wonderful little town of Dolores - just a few houses away from the Dolores River and beloved river trail, including the popular (shhh...) big rock swimming hole. This property is centrally located to stores, schools, library, restaurants, and post office - very close to each of them. A darling home this is, with two bedrooms and 1 1/2 bathrooms on the main level, as well as a basement bedroom (window provides light, view, and egress; no closet). A split floor plan separates the bedrooms, and includes a tiled entry and living area, plus an updated kitchen with a closet pantry; the full bathroom adjoins laundry facilities (with an exit to the side yard) and the remodeled 1/2 bath is immediately inside the back door, leading in from the alley and garage into the kitchen. What is a mountain home without wood heat? No disappointment here.. the home stays cozy with a woodburning stove and forced air heat, plus a baseboard heater in the lower room. Outside, this property offers a finished, detached garage at the alley, warmed with gas and wood heat, too. But that is not all! There is plenty of storage built in at the back of the house: two separate rooms for all your gardening tools. Attic access is provided by ladder up to some more space (lights are installed but not much stand up room for some of us). A variety of fruit, flowers, shrubs, and trees adorns this nearly 1/4 acre lot but there is not much to mow; it is a lovely environment during blooming season, so pretty. The back of the property has plenty of concrete surface to prevent mud traffic and a nice lattice cubby is a delightful place for a picnic table or bench. Ahhh, Dolores... this is the place to be! Fresh mountain air, the pleasing sound of the river, with so many outdoor recreation possibilities right outside the door- even the newest trail from Dolores to House Creek, as well as being just down the hill from the Boggy Draw Trail system, and ground zero to excellent fishing, rafting, kayaking, and hunting, too.
