Behold the beauty of this home, nestled east of Ft Garland in the Sangre de Cristo Ranches, offering unparalleled vistas! Perched atop a gentle hill, enjoy the breathtaking views of majestic Mt Blanca and the abundant wildlife right from the covered porch or private deck. The home graciously accommodates with 4 bedrooms but has generous space for everyday living. Primary suite is on the main floor which has updated cabinetry, granite counters, jetted tub and shower. Downstairs includes a family room, full bath, bedroom and a bonus room that can be an office or den. Kitchen features cherry cabinets, tile flooring, granite counters and stainless appliances. The loft area has wonderful natural light and can be used as a bedroom, office or another bonus room. Embracing an off-grid lifestyle, it features essential amenities: a 500-gallon propane tank, solar panels coupled with 12 batteries and an inverter, ensuring sustainable power. With 300+ days of sunshine, this solar system works efficiently, however, a backup generator automatically activates when there is higher electrical demand or the batteries run low. A 300-gallon cistern adds extra water storage for the augmented well which is permitted for 3000 sq. ft. of lawn/garden. With high speed fiber internet, staying connected or working remotely is an option. This property has been meticulously maintained and is move-in ready. Discover the serenity and functionality this home has to offer. Furnishings are negotiable if you want a turn-key purchase.
