This passive solar southeast facing 3 bedroom 3 bath home is the perfect basecamp for all the adventures you can muster between the infinite off-road trails of historic Bonanza to the shopping, dining, mountains and rivers of Salida (35 miles away). Two world class hot sprng resorts are minutes away. Easy living and low maintenance features such as exterior stucco and low moisture native landscaping allow for this to be your perfect primary or 2nd home. There are no short-term rental restrictions in Saguache county and this home is setup perfectly with each bedroom having it's own separate private bath. Stargaze dark skies on the open second-floor deck or take a soak in the hot tub on the flagstone patio with a kiva fireplace steps away.

Host a party or family get-together in the massive standing stone fire pit and seating area. From every vantage point, you will find deer, rabbits and turkeys freely roaming through the grassy meadows and forest. In this two-story home, the large open kitchen flows out into the dining and living room areas, all sharing the pristine long views of the Sangre De Cristo mountain range, which is constantly changing color throughout the day. If you love cooking or entertaining this open space can comfortably host a large number of people and flows out to the upper deck for outdoor grilling and socializing. The downstairs features a cozy sitting room with a gas log fireplace that could double as a rec room, TV area or home office. 3 Well appointed outbuildings and an oversized attached double-car garage complete the package providing ample storage for cars, tractors, toys and recreational gear and keeping everything neat and out of the elements. Come see why Cody Gulch, the northern San Luis Valley and Bonanza are a favorite for long time residents and locals of this area.
