461 Vista De Verde

Custom Log-Sided Home with Expansive Mountain and Rio Grande River Valley Views. This exceptional log-sided home rests on 2 acres with panoramic views of the San Juan Mountains and the Rio Grande River Valley and is positioned so that the sun is constant but very subtle. Quality craftsmanship is evident throughout, from the custom wood front door to the live-edge trim and tongue-and-groove beetle-kill (blue pine) ceilings. Inside, the home offers two master suites plus a bunk room in the loft perfect for hosting family and friends. The gourmet kitchen boasts granite counters, a KitchenAid double oven with propane stove, KitchenAid dishwasher, plate railings for collectibles, and adjustable under-cabinet lighting. Warm wood tones are complemented by porcelain wood-grain tile floors throughout. The great room is anchored by a large "Extradordinaire" brand fireplace, rated to heat up to 2,500 sq. ft., with hot water propane baseboard heating for additional comfort. A half bath and laundry room sit conveniently on the main floor, while the oversized two-car garage on the ground level includes built-in shelving for ample storage. The home is also equipped with both a tankless propane water heater and a 38-gallon electric water heater for hot water on demand. Outdoor living shines with wraparound decking completed with 4" welded wire and safety gates for peace of mind for youngsters and pets. A flagstone fire pit area, grilling and dining spaces, and even a bar with stools to enjoy morning sunrises also compliment the property. Landscaping is a true highlight, featuring aspens and evergreens, a manicured lawn, seasonal flowers, and locally sourced rock accents. A concrete driveway connects directly to the asphalt road for easy access and a concrete pad with existing 50 amp/220 v service invites a future shop! Blending mountain charm with modern comfort, this home is ideal for year-round living or a luxurious mountain retreat. All just a short drive to the Rio Grande Club Golf Resort, Wolf Creek Ski Area, and millions of acres of public land for hiking, hunting, and four-wheeling.
