Quintessential, restored farmhouse perched above the Town of Paonia overlooking the spectacular West Elks and the bustling little town below. Built in 1912 and situated on 2.43 acres, this property is located in one of the most coveted areas of Paonia and has everything you need from a nice-sized, cozy home to a good domestic water source and ample space for a little hobby farm. Many features have been updated in the past few years including the kitchen, bathrooms, new electric service, engineered septic system, state-of-the-art on-demand Weil-McClain boiler and hot water baseboard heat powered with natural gas. You will spend a lot of your time on the beautiful wrap-around porch from sunrises and coffee to finding shade in the afternoon. Original interior woodwork, ornate ceiling medallions, period chandeliers, 9' ceilings, hardwood floors throughout and original floor-to-ceiling kitchen cupboards. Cherry and butcher block countertops. The main level has a lovely dining room, living room, half bath and additional room that is currently used as a study but could be a bedroom. There are three bedrooms upstairs, two of which have access to the upper outdoor roof-top deck. The 4-piece bathroom has a steam shower and a beautiful, modern soaking tub. The 900 sq. ft. basement has tall ceilings, concrete floor and a couple of roughed-in bedrooms. Plenty of storage in this usable space. There are two exterior outbuildings - one is in rough shape and used for storage and the other has great potential as an ADU. Several fruit trees on the property including apricot, pear and apple. Organic peach orchard next door. Several developable springs on the property along with an underground root cellar. There are a couple of fenced-in garden areas. One mile to town with all of the amenities that a thriving, artist community has to offer not to mention being surrounded by some of Colorado's finest wilderness playgrounds - Grand Mesa, Black Canyon, West Elks and McClure Pass. Don't miss out on this beautiful spot in a wonderful area!
