This beautiful 2,146 square foot home, built in 2020, offers incredible mountain, valley, and city views from its private 2.13-acre setting. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 1.75 bathrooms, this thoughtfully designed residence combines modern comforts with the serene Colorado lifestyle.

Outdoor living is maximized with three covered porches, beautifully landscaped grounds with large boulders and integrated planters, and a fenced dog run. The gravel driveway is stabilized with a geogrid system to prevent shifting, and there's a designated RV or camper parking area complete with clean-out and 220V electric hookup. The oversized two-car garage provides space for additional storage, workbenches, or recreational gear. Downstairs, the basement includes a storage area with a vapor barrier, as well as a versatile space perfect for a workshop, hobby room, or future expansion. Nature lovers will enjoy regular visits from deer and a variety of bird species, and the property offers a perfect vantage point to watch the fireworks launched from Tenderfoot Mountain. Located just over two miles from downtown Salida, you'll have easy access to skiing at Monarch Mountain, rafting and fishing on the Arkansas River, and a wide network of biking and hiking trails. Historic Salida also offers a vibrant artistic scene, excellent restaurants, and unique shopping experiences. This is a rare opportunity to own a newer home with high-end features and unbeatable views in one of Colorado's most desirable outdoor communities.
