DETAILS

INTERIOR FEATURES

Windows, windows, and more windows bring in the surrounding nature to the interior of this charming home. The main living area, guest bedroom, bath, and laundry room reside on the main floor. The entire upstairs belongs to the master suite. The baths are upgraded—and so are the kitchen appliances.
A screen door and a door with a paned window welcome you into the main entry with a homey red brick floor and a window that fills the area with natural light. A stucco alcove stores coats and includes shelves for “this and that.”
A door to the left opens to the two-car heated garage equipped with shelving.
Step up from the entry to a hallway of 8” Saltilla tile that leads to the main living area.
The living room, dining room, and kitchen flow seamlessly, enabling full views of the surrounding mature trees and lovely gardens through the picture windows that extend to the vaulted ceilings.
You’ll feel uplifted the moment you walk into the light-filled living room. In addition to the soaring windows and sliding doors that open to the deck and patio, a large skylight frames tree tops and bluebird skies. Oak floors are bordered by Saltilla tile. A black free-standing, gas-log stove keeps you cozy on winter evenings.
A graceful French bronze and white glass chandelier suspends above the dining area. Dine to the sound of the water feature gently cascading over the rocks in the garden. Flowering vines through the window make a beautiful backdrop.
The delightful, open kitchen features all new appliances. A picture window over the double stainless sink opens to the surrounding gardens and chirping birds.
A navy tile bar counter with a simple floral accent tile separates the kitchen from the dining room and enables guests to sit and visit while you prepare a meal.
All stainless steel appliances include a Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator/freezer with water and ice dispenser, Thermador gas range and oven, and Bosch dishwasher.
Guests will experience an “in the woods” feeling in the inviting, main floor bedroom with oak floors and a window that looks out to mature trees.
The full bath is beautifully updated with a sensually shaped pedestal sink, new Kohler commode, French bronze and glass light fixture, and tile flooring in shades of blush, beige, and cream.
Streaming sunlight fills even the laundry room. Here, there’s a Maytag Neptune washer and dryer, a utility/storage area, and access to the crawl space.
The wood stairs seem more like a stairway to heaven, and lead to the blissful master suite. This room is a breath of fresh air with a vaulted ceiling and a multitude of windows that frame expansive views to the north (Basalt Mountain to Missouri Heights) and southern views of the BLM hillside. A sliding glass door opens to a sweet sunny deck flanked by trees.
Open the windows for cool mountain cross breezes. The floors are oak and two double mirrored closets with built-in shelving provide plenty of wardrobe and linen storage.
The adjoining, spacious master bath features an oversized shower for two with white tile surround and a forest green tile floor. The double vanity has oak cabinetry with decorative brushed nickel pulls. Windows look out to the surrounding views and let the sunshine in.
The home has a filtered water system and water softenter.
