42 Acres in Del Norte, CO - $899,000

In the remote wilderness of Southern Colorado, you'll find a luxurious mountain home on 42 acres secluded - yet just a few minutes from town on year-round, county-maintained roads. Endless ATV trails, hiking trails, and hunting, just steps outside your front door. This is a great property for horses too! This Southwestern-style home is located at the end of the road in the Ghost Mine Ranch development of Saguache County bordering the Rio Grande National Forest. It was built in 2011 with an authentic Adobe look and feel but actually built with state-of-the-art 12" thick Rastra brand ICF block and a freshly painted synthetic stucco exterior finish. The house has been thoughtfully upgraded and expanded recently, adding a living room, a master bedroom, two x-large closets with shelving, a bathroom with granite counter and KraftMaid cabinet and a spacious pantry. Year-round comfort is provided by quality insulation, as well as a cozy and efficient Jydepejsen wood stove from Denmark in the open living room and radiant floor heating throughout for comfort and convenience. The strategic placement of Anderson 100-series, Low-E glass windows invites breathtaking views of the Natural Arch, Eagle Mountain, and the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range. The kitchen features solid surface countertops and KraftMaid solid wood cabinetry, while the master suite offers a new 72-inch fiberglass freestanding bathtub and a private exit to the rear of the home. The second bedroom boasts a generous walk-in closet, and the second bathroom delights with a spacious two-person shower adorned with floor-to-ceiling tile. Outside, there's a new asphalt parking area and driveway, a cement patio, comfortable benches, and upgraded gutters. Additionally, there's a 42 x40 (1680 sq ft) double insulated shop with a Modine heater, 220 electrical hookups, and includes shop cabinetry. The property also provides an RV hookup for your convenience.
