For the first time since 1997, this lovingly cared-for home is ready for its next chapter. Tucked away on 5.27 acres with stunning views of the Grand Mesa and Bookcliffs, this property perfectly blends comfort, function, and that true Colorado lifestyle. Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms spread across 2,625 square feet of warm, welcoming space. The layout is thoughtfully designed—with a private guest suite on one side of the home and the remaining bedrooms on the other—giving everyone their own space while still feeling connected. Two large living areas make it easy to gather, entertain, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Outside, the possibilities are endless. The property is fully fenced for horses, complete with a powered and watered lean-to—ideal for anyone with animals or looking to start a small hobby farm. The oversized 3-car garage has room for vehicles, tools, and toys, while the metal roof and dual swamp coolers offer durability and year-round comfort. The outdoor spaces are what truly make this home special. Two covered patios overlook beautifully landscaped grounds with irrigation water included. Whether you’re sipping coffee in the morning light or unwinding at sunset, the wide-open views and quiet surroundings remind you what Colorado living is all about. With no covenants and an HOA only for irrigation water, this property gives you freedom, space, and peace of mind. Homes like this—where every inch shows years of care—don’t come on the market often. Come see why this Whitewater retreat has been cherished for nearly three decades.
