This custom home sits on a wide elevated bend of the river with roughly 240 feet of private frontage and unobstructed views of the Collegiate Peaks. The setting is quiet, open, and soaked in natural light, backed by cottonwoods and big sky. It feels private without feeling isolated. The home is polished, efficient, and built to frame the views. Floor to ceiling glass pulls the mountains and river straight into the living space. Concrete floors, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a bold clean design give the interior a modern lodge feel. The architecture is fully custom with high end tile, quality fixtures, and a metal architectural beam that anchors the kitchen. The kitchen blends style and function with wood countertops, matte cabinetry, high quality appliances including the red Smeg fridge, and an enclosed pantry that keeps the space clean. The layout is simple and smart with one bedroom, one bath, a walk-in closet, and an open concept great room that wastes zero space. Comfort features include air conditioning, full size stackable washer and dryer, water softener, and custom window coverings throughout. Outside, the covered patio and wrap of windows give you a year-round connection to the river and surrounding landscape. The grounds include a large professionally installed wildflower garden that brings color and movement all season long. The lot is nearly flat up top with a gentle falloff to the water, offering natural privacy and a strong building position for future expansion. The septic is engineered for two homes, and the property includes plans for a larger residence. Power, well, and infrastructure are already in place. The location is minutes to Salida yet feels like a world of its own. A rare riverfront property with clean modern design, big views, and room to grow.
