This beautifully redesigned and thoughtfully updated home near Vallecito Reservoir offers modern comforts wrapped in mountain charm. Extensive remodel upgrades include all-new electrical and plumbing, new windows, new blown-in insulation, and new durable vinyl plank flooring. The entryway is washed in morning light and creates a perfect sitting area, while the stylish kitchen features leathered granite counters with a rough edge, custom iron door cabinet pulls, a Haier Euro fridge, and an electric range oven, blending modern function with rustic character. LED lighting illuminates every room, and the abundant natural lighting creates a cozy atmosphere for year-round enjoyment. The 3/4 bath is beautifully finished with a marble vanity and custom tile work in the spacious walk-in shower. One bedroom provides a full closet and a second room functions as a flexible office or guest space with a daybed. Practical updates include a laundry/mudroom with utility sink, new electric baseboard heating in every room, a new electric water heater, and all-electric systems throughout for low-maintenance comfort. The home also features a tiled corner nook for a future free-standing wood-burning fireplace, if desired. Outside, the property impresses with a new front deck, and a stuccoed, insulated and sheet-rocked 1-car garage with decorative wainscoting. The landscaping includes apple trees, lilacs, aspens, iris, and perennial flowers, offering a private, picturesque setting with abundant local wildlife. The home’s exterior features durable stucco with metal wainscoting and a brand-new metal roof, while a spring-fed community well serves these homes with a future cistern in progress to help ensure reliable water access. Part of the beautiful Vallecito Lake community, this property offers a lifestyle rich in recreation. The reservoir stretches for miles and provides excellent opportunities for fishing, boating, paddle boarding, cross country ski trails and abundant opportunities to snow shoe. Bordering the Weminuche region of the San Juan National Forest, the area is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. The home is conveniently close to the marina and just a short drive from the 19.5-mile Vallecito Trail, which leads directly into the 499,771-acre Weminuche Wilderness—the largest wilderness area in Colorado. With every detail thoughtfully updated and modern systems already in place, this home is move-in ready, making it an ideal year-round residence, a mountain getaway, or a turnkey investment property near the lake. Note: The additional vacant parcel in the rear could also be offered for sale, offering additional privacy.
