New pricing on this riverfront property! The soothing roar of the river sets the tone for this exceptional Colorado retreat on 3.9 acres and over 400 feet of private Arkansas River frontage. A sprawling 1,000-square-foot covered wraparound deck invites you to fully embrace the outdoors—whether enjoying morning coffee, sunsets, outdoor dining, or simply taking in the peaceful sights and sounds of the river below. Designed for comfortable main-level living, this custom home features an open, light-filled floor plan framed by stunning views of the surrounding fourteeners. Wide-plank wood floors, a striking dry-stack stone hearth, and a cozy wood-burning stove create warmth and character throughout the living area, while expansive windows and multiple deck access points seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. The spacious dining area captures the scenery beautifully, and the kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, counter seating, a pantry, a built-in desk area, and easy access for grilling and entertaining beneath the piñon-covered landscape. The main-floor primary suite offers privacy, comfort, direct deck access, and an ensuite bath, while a powder room and laundry room add everyday convenience. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms showcase pristine mountain vistas and share a full bath, along with a sun-drenched family room featuring panoramic views in every direction. The lower level offers flexibility with three bonus rooms—ideal for a game room, fitness studio, craft room, office, or additional storage. An attached two-car garage, solar system, dog run, and private setting further enhance the property’s appeal. The true centerpiece is the river frontage itself. A trail leads directly to the water’s edge, creating the perfect launching point for boating adventures, fishing excursions, or quiet moments immersed in nature. This is Colorado mountain living at its finest—private, scenic, and unforgettable.
