Step into the embrace of nature with this elegant custom home, nestled on a stunning 5.8-acre wooded haven. Ascend a short flight of steps to enter the heart of the home—a sun-drenched great room adorned with cherry hardwood floors, vaulted, timber-lined ceilings, large formal dining area, a living room that offers a wet bar and second dishwasher, and kitchen overlooking the great room, seamlessly blending into a space perfect for entertaining. The kitchen features engineered granite countertops, ash and copper cabinetry, a natural gas double oven and range, side-by-side refrigerator with bottom freezer, dishwasher, microwave, garbage disposal, a breakfast bar and separate dinette area for casual dining. Every window in the great room frames majestic evergreen trees, offering glimpses of mountains and the regular wildlife visitors. Down a short hallway, discover a beautifully tiled full bathroom with double vanity, a flexible second bedroom currently serving as an office, and the sunny primary bedroom with its private bathroom. Bask in the joy of outdoor living on the roomy deck with access from the living room or primary bedroom, offering a direct view of the magnificent Mt. Sneffels. Venture downstairs to find a separate living area with a versatile sitting/living/media room, two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and access to the 2-car garage, complete with 2 newly installed Level 2 EV chargers, and door to the outside covered, cement walkway to a workshop and mechanics room below the main level of the house. The sellers have left no stone unturned in enhancing this home, from installing 18 solar panels and substantially clearing trees for fire mitigation to replacing steps and deck flooring with trek boards and adding a whole-house water filtration system, custom metal railing on the front staircase and deck and the back deck, and a cement patio with cement walkways and xeriscape landscaping. The home also features a radon mitigation system, forced air heating throughout the house, central air conditioning, a vapor barrier lining in the stand-up crawl space, and high-speed fiber optic internet. Outside, a unique metal treehouse platform and swing beckon, adding a touch of whimsy to the nearly 6-acre lot. With room to spare for an accessory dwelling unit, barn, or workshop, as well as ample space for RVs, boats, and other Colorado "toys," this property is a mountain gem priced to sell quickly. Don't miss the chance to own the perfect blend of elegance and Colorado mountain living in beautiful Ouray County!
