Wishing for a mountain home that not too secluded? This 1534SF log-sided home sits among immense ponderosa pines; with your own forest-like lot (5.23 acres), it feels very private, yet it's not far from town on maintained roads. A large wrap-around deck with rustic log railings provides a great space to immerse yourself in tranquility & beauty. There is even a nice view of the Sangre de Cristo Mountain range. The home has an open floor plan, which includes large kitchen, dining area & living area. The kitchen has Corian countertops, tiffany-style drop lights over the bar (which seats 3), maple cabinetry with spice cabinet, pull-out shelves & pebbled glass fronts. The focal point of the great room is the wood-burning fireplace with floor-to-ceiling stone work, teak mantle & slate hearth. Another special feature of this area is the dark, random-length teak wood flooring & teak vaulted ceiling. When the weather turns cool, this nice great room just invites you to a bowl of popcorn & game of checkers with a fire in the fireplace. A sliding glass door to deck is just off the dining room; grilling & dining on the deck are an absolute must! After dinner, wait for the evening show - courtesy of our "dark skies". Our area has been designated a "Dark Sky Community", where, because of low light pollution, you can actually see the stars and the Milky Way. Turn off the TV & see Nature's special program.
Besides the great room, the main level includes a master bedroom & a separate office with a Jack & Jill bath between them, 1/2 bath & utility closet. The lower level has a den/tv room, bedroom with full bath, mechanical room & entrance to 2 car oversized garage. There's room in this garage for a workshop area. Since this home is being sold "turn-key" except for items on exclusion list, ready to move in, you can make your plans to escape to the mountains now & enjoy summer in your new home, the small-town charm of Westcliffe & the Wet Mountain Valley.
