Lovely two-story home in one of the best locations in Cortez, which is surrounded by beautiful homes on spacious lots with manicured landscaping. Well cared for home has all new concrete driveway, sidewalks and back patio with lots of off-street parking, carport, spacious one-car attached garage and a detached fully finished shop. Lots of natural light throughout the home with 1,854 square feet of interior living space. Kitchen has beautiful hickory cabinets with pull out drawers, a walk-in pantry and lots of windows to take in the beautiful views out to the back patio and yard. The owners favorite feature is the patio, which is shaded in the afternoon and evening facing east towards the LaPlata Mountains. From the kitchen, a 3/4 bath and laundry room lead to another entrance to the patio and garage. One bedroom is on the main level (or makes an excellent office/craft room) with 3 more large bedrooms and a bath upstairs. The back yard is fully fenced and has double gates to drive through to the detached garage/workshop. Behind the shop are two storage sheds and riding mower covered parking. Cool shaded lawns are fully landscaped with underground automatic sprinklers. Property is close to the Conquistador Golf Course, Parque De Vida, and the Cortez Rec Center.
