Experience peaceful mountain living in this luxury custom home, privately set among the trees on over 6 acres in the sought-after Mesa Antero community. Designed to capture the beauty of its surroundings, the home showcases sweeping views of the Collegiate Peaks from multiple vantage points. Ideally located between Salida and Buena Vista, this home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both towns while living in a quiet, rural setting.
A welcoming entry with custom built-ins and framed mountain views leads into the expansive great room and open-concept living space. The main level features hardwood floors, a spacious living area with a stone gas fireplace, and a beautiful kitchen with a generous eat-up bar. The dining area is positioned to take in the views and opens to a spacious deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A mudroom and laundry connect directly to the attached garage for added convenience.
The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with scenic views, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower. Mini-split systems in the primary bedroom and upstairs living room provide efficient electric heating and cooling.
The lower level offers new wood flooring, three additional bedrooms or flexible spaces, and two bathrooms, including an ensuite. A second living area with a wet bar, fireplace, and room for a pool table opens to a landscaped flagstone courtyard—perfect for relaxing or hosting.
Additional highlights include energy-efficient construction, a reverse osmosis system, and an attached garage with ample space. Filing 5 of Mesa Antero allows short-term rentals. Sellers would prefer to convey the home fully furnished, excluding select personal items and some artwork.
A rare opportunity to enjoy mountain living, privacy, and exceptional scenery in Mesa Antero. Schedule your private showing today.
