Property Description

Set on 1.21 acres in Pinon Hills, this Salida mountain retreat delivers the kind of views people move here for. Big sky, big peaks, and a true wraparound perspective that feels like you can see forever. Whether you are sipping coffee on the covered patio or watching the light change across the mountains from the living room windows, this home puts Colorado’s scenery front and center. Built in 1992 and offering 2,392 square feet, the layout is both functional and inviting with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The main living area features vaulted wood ceilings, warm natural finishes, and a classic wood burning fireplace that anchors the space. A new living room door opens directly to the deck, extending your living space outdoors and making entertaining effortless. The kitchen is designed for real use with generous counter space, a large island, and a walk-in pantry, while the adjacent dining area keeps everyone connected. The family room adds a second gathering space with electric baseboard heat and a wood stove, perfect for cozy winter nights or hosting guests. Upstairs, the private primary suite is a true retreat with office space, a 3/4 bath, and a walk-in closet. One secondary bedroom is located off the family room and includes its own ensuite full bath, ideal for guests, a private office, or flexible living arrangements. Outside, the greenhouse is a standout bonus for gardening and extended season growing, with geothermal forced air heat blowing at approximately 55 degrees for more consistent temps through the seasons. Major upgrades bring peace of mind, including Hardy Board siding, a metal roof, new furnace & central air, new windows, a new hot water heater, and a new pressure tank. A detached 2 car garage provides excellent storage plus an unfinished upstairs loft space ready for your gear, workshop needs, or future ideas. Positioned to capture the best of the surrounding landscape, this is a home that feels like a getaway, but lives easy year round.
