Jon Johnson, Sherpa Real Estate, C: 970-946-3112, [email protected], www.crenmls.com: Mountain View Ranch:  Resting in a scrumptious mountain valley and surveying a dreamy selection of rugged north range peaks, anchored by lush greenery and your private spring fed pond, this stunning log home is a Colorado dream with Yellowstone personality. Each hand-crafted Canadian Spruce full round log on the home is unique and the upgrades and finish detail are evident at every turn. After being captivated by the short drive out this picturesque county road, you'll park facing up valley views and be mesmerized by what you see and feel. Our handsome Pagosa Peak is picture-framed in the shot.Circle around front, admiring the surrounding hills, pond, arena and panoramic valley and then onto the large, covered entry deck. Journey inside and your inner interior designer will instantly notice the magic and uniquely inviting personality of the decor brings to the cozy abode.  Step into the great room and the sights you'll see through the huge wall of north facing windows will anchor you to this sanctuary.  By all means, wander out to the covered back deck and just soak it all in. Don't be in a rush. Watch for wildlife and dream of watching the seasons change from this perch. Back inside the home you'll need to pace yourself as you carefully study the quality and endless special details of the home. From the masculine native rock fireplace and wood hearth to the artisan created glass and metal fireplace enclosure, hearty exposed beams, gracious use of open beams, solid hickory plank flooring, leather granite countertops punctuated by custom cabinetry, high end appliances, creative lighting fixtures, and the list goes on in the Addendum. The smart layout of the home is ideal for entertaining, and you'll be lured to enjoy the back deck year-round. The oversized garage has a standalone heated shop and large storage room plus loads of area over the garage for added gear and stuff. There is a nice, covered extension outside the shop and next to the back deck for BBQ and an entry door directly into the kitchen.  Large laundry room, ample sized guest rooms and a dreamy master bedroom with his and hers walk in closets and opulent bath with a private bay window above the soaking tub plus a private exit out to the deck and down to the Bullfrog hot tub.

The in floor radiant heat and fireplace with gas log will keep you toasty warm. Yes, all of this is in a single level home with raw Colorado dream views and personality on city water and with Natural Gas and ditch rights included, just a short drive from old town. Next, I'll mention the detached guest quarters over the beautiful barn, crafted by local builder in 2010 and it has a western feel plus large open deck to enjoy in warm months.  It boasts a tack room, 2 stalls and paddock and floor drains. The apartment is uber cozy and great for guests or a caretaker. The landscaping at the home is simple elegance. Pond water is used for sprinkler irrigation of house lawn and drip irrigation of the trees and shrubs around the home, and ditch rights help keep the pond full. Landscaping has been updated with deer resistant varieties of plants. Mostly, the native grasses, flora and fauna and presence of majestic stands of towering pines, gamble oak and aspen speak to the wild authenticity of the setting. All, making a very welcoming habitat for the majestic creatures who pass through with wonderful regularity.  Keep your field glasses and cameras ready.
