This 4,088 square foot log home sits on 1.64 level acres in the Acres of Ireland neighborhood, just 15 minutes from Salida. No HOA, no covenants, and a layout that offers far more flexibility than your typical floor plan.
The main level is designed for everyday living with a spacious primary suite, a second bedroom, and an additional private living area that functions like an attached in law suite. This space includes its own kitchen, bath, and separate entry, connected to the main home through a shared laundry area. It works well for guests, extended family, or anyone needing their own space without being fully detached.
The heart of the home showcases classic log construction with exposed beams and tongue and groove ceilings, creating a warm, grounded mountain feel. Large windows bring in natural light and frame the surrounding views. The kitchen has been updated with light cabinetry, solid surface counters, and a central island, opening into the dining and living areas for a practical, easy flow.
Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms share a full bath. One bedroom opens to a rooftop deck with wide open views, and from the deck you can access a separate studio apartment space. This setup adds another layer of flexibility for guests, workspace, or potential rental use.
Additional features include multiple living areas, a wood burning fireplace, sauna, and a mix of wood, tile, and carpet flooring that fits the character of the home.
Outside, the 1.64 acre lot is level and usable with mature trees, partial fencing, and room to add a garage or shop. Private well and septic are already in place.
This property stands out for one reason. Options. Whether you are looking for multigenerational living, income potential, or simply room to spread out, the layout delivers flexibility that is hard to find.
