Stunning Larry Barnes–designed log retreat just minutes from town, beautifully sited on more than 4 acres with serene gardens, multiple water features, and views of the La Plata Mountains. The entire log exterior has been re-stained and re-chinked, and a new Trex deck welcomes you to the front of the house. With many other recent upgrades, this home has been well cared for. Inside, the home offers an open floor plan that highlights impressive log beams and rich wood details. The living area is warm and inviting, anchored by a wood stove and a floor-to- ceiling moss rock fireplace. The home has abundant natural light thanks to the large windows that capture sweeping views and the lush grounds. The kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances. Two large bedroom suites each include their own stove for extra ambiance and comfort, hardwood floors, and sliding glass doors that lead to the decks. The primary suite includes a steam shower for a spa-like retreat. A covered back deck creates a private outdoor oasis, perfect for relaxing or entertaining, overlooking the picturesque backyard. A separate fenced area with raised garden beds provides an ideal spot for growing vegetables and herbs, a green thumb’s dream. The oversized two-car garage includes two storage rooms and space for a workbench. Above the garage, a charming guest house features an open living area with a kitchenette, plus a studio bedroom and bathroom. Another programable stove fireplace keeps this area warm. Additional amenities include a paved driveway and large front parking area, a newer metal roof that facilitates winter snow removal, central water and HOA road maintenance. This exceptional property combines thoughtful design, upgraded exterior maintenance, and idyllic outdoor living—don’t miss the chance to make it yours.
