Expansive views of the Sawatch and Sangre de Cristo ranges frame the setting, while the surrounding ranchland provides privacy and a true country feel. The 4 bedroom, 2 bath home blends rustic character with modern updates. The main level features a spacious primary suite, a granite and stainless kitchen with island, and a dedicated dining room.
