Description

Live the Colorado dream in this stunning new home with the Dolores River running a mere 30 feet away. Nestled in the San Juan National Forest and less than an hour away from Telluride, enjoy world-class skiing, hiking, and fishing, or just stay home and relax in your own private retreat. The 32 expansive windows and sliding doors frame the incredible water and mountain views everywhere you turn and allow natural light to brighten every corner. The house is angled to maximize southern exposure, providing plenty of passive solar heat during the winter, yet stays wonderfully cool during the summer, in part to the poured concrete floors, numerous ceiling fans, and those 266 feet of wonderful river frontage. The upstairs is equipped with a mini-split unit for additional cooling. Soaring vaulted ceilings abound in every area except in the great room which boasts beautiful tongue and groove woodwork. This area is heated not just with radiant floor heating, but a top of the line thermostatically-controlled wood-burning fireplace. In the kitchen, new stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry with numerous pull-outs, quartz countertops, apron-front dual sink with motion sensor faucet, and an enormous 4x8 center island will make any cook happy, especially with the river flowing right in front of you! Entertain in style on the oversized patio accessed by double sliding doors and steps away from a 384 square foot deck located directly on the banks. In addition, a full RV hookup is available right next to the deck. A guest bedroom downstairs has its own outdoor access and is steps away from the river. Another room on the main floor has been set up to use as a media room but could easily be converted to another bedroom with the addition of a closet. The entire upstairs is a retreat unto itself, complete with an office, exercise or sitting area, walk-in closet, dual vanities and ample cabinet space, walk-in shower with dual heads and a luxurious free-standing soaking tub. The bedroom opens to a 20x12 balcony. Let the sound of the river lull you to sleep as the constellations pass by the huge picture and transom windows. Without HOA constraints, this rare combination of new construction and riverfront property would certainly command high rates as a vacation rental. Dont let this opportunity pass you by to own your Colorado dream home!
