This exceptional property blends luxury living, equestrian amenities, and expansive acreage just minutes from downtown Pagosa Springs. As you travel through the scenic valley toward the ranch, year-round accessibility leads you to a beautifully positioned home set beneath your own private mountain hillside. From the moment you step inside, the thoughtful placement of the home becomes clear. Large windows throughout the property capture sweeping views of the San Juan Mountain Range, peaceful meadows, and surrounding wilderness, creating a sense of privacy and tranquility from nearly every room. The luxury mountain home, fully updated in 2020, offers a warm and refined interior designed to complement its natural surroundings. A brick archway foyer welcomes you into the main living areas, including an elegant dining room, a spacious living room centered around a dramatic floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace with a real wood-burning hearth, and a chef’s kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining.
