11888 Las Colinas Drive

Tucked into the quiet Las Colinas neighborhood, this custom-built home pairs mountain charm with smart design and stunning views. Built in 2008 and constructed with a mix of stucco and true 12-inch square logs, the home blends rich wood textures with clean drywall finishes for a bright, comfortable interior. The 2,647 SF layout includes 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, an office, and vaulted ceilings that bring in light and highlight the craftsmanship throughout. The main floor features hardwood oak flooring, a warm living room with a pellet stove, and a well-designed kitchen with granite counters and natural wood cabinetry. Just off the living room is a private office, along with a full bath and a second bedroom on the main level. The second floor is open to the living room below, creating a connected, airy feel. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a gas log fireplace and offers incredible views of the Collegiate Peaks right from your pillow. A third bedroom and full bath complete the upper level.
Attached is an oversized 3-car garage, and the real bonus is the 40x40 detached garage with three bays, including two standard doors and one 14-foot RV door. The garage is finished, heated, plumbed for vehicle washing, and equipped with a 50-amp RV hookup. It's ideal for large rigs, projects, or year-round storage. The garage placement and fencing create a natural buffer that makes the backyard feel private and tucked away. The yard is beautifully landscaped with lush lawn, native trees, irrigation, and space to relax or entertain.
Las Colinas provides the peace of a well-managed HOA with annual dues of just $400. The property sits on an augmented well with septic and propane service. Some furnishings may be available for purchase. Located just minutes from downtown Salida, you'll have quick access to restaurants, shops, the Arkansas River and outdoor adventure. If you're looking for comfort, function, and wide open views without sacrificing convenience, this one delivers.
