Jon Johnson, Sherpa Real Estate, C: 970-946-3112, [email protected], www.crenmls.com: This single-story beauty will win your heart. With a massive amount of superb National Forest resting only a couple of hundred feet away from your front door, a rare and ample sized .74 acre lot, huge, fenced back yard with a party deck designed for outdoor entertaining plus a backdrop of our majestic Pagosa Peak towering over mature pine trees beyond your back fence, you're off to a great start. Park in the circular drive and step into this warmly inviting, Colorado-feel home. You'll instantly appreciate the open concept great room with terrific island bar, upgraded cabinetry, stunning tile backsplash, distinctive designer lighting, tongue and groove pine vaulted ceiling, live edge wood slab and granite countertops plus premium stainless appliances. Survey the room and you'll instantly be drawn to the large bank of glass which creates the "come out an relax" allure of the lovely back yard and deck, or perhaps the peaks will call you to another Pagosa outdoor adventure. Next, you'll notice a stylish free-standing pellet stove punctuated by a decorative dry stack surround. Visualizing the ever-changing beauty of our four-seasons from anywhere in that great room will make you smile.All three inviting bedrooms live off of the great room, including the master, where you'll especially enjoy the custom barn door and wood plank touches.  The soaking tub in the master bath is surrounded by custom tile work and the outdoor views from the tub will make spending time there a daily ritual you'll crave. The adjacent shower will be great for speed cleaning.  All of the bedrooms have ceiling fans, open feel, tall ceilings and charm. A full bath is situated between the guest bedrooms and it, too, boasts HGTV decorator touches and tidy personality.  Now, just beyond the kitchen you'll find a really fantastic bonus feature of the home.  This includes a large laundry area, private side entry from the covered front deck, a very spacious playroom with a prow of windows looking towards the forest to the south, T&G ceiling, great natural light and another full bathroom.  This is a great "use your imagination" space. Beyond this room is a warm hallway passage with beam accents, loads of windows and T&G beauty which connects the home to the "honey, look at this incredible three car garage/shop."  Yes, tall, wide, deep and ready to house all our gear, projects and even that extra hot rod or UTV.  Yes, there is 220V electrical service in the garage plus a nice gravel pad, just outside and next to the garage, for larger toys.  You're wondering about the furniture in the home.  Yes, the home comes furnished at this compelling price.Taking a whirl around the back yard and you'll see a wonderfully covered deck for inclement weather adjacent to an open deck with gathering space, punctuated by mature pines and aspen and a sea of green grass. I'm thinking fire pit, horseshoes, corn hole boards, BBQ and even volleyball in the huge east yard section.  Oh, this home is ready to both entertain and unwind.  Did I also mention that our trophy fishing "Lake Hatcher" is only a short distance up the road...oh and Turkey Springs trailhead...and the incomparable Upper Piedra Valley with legendary Williams Creek Reservoir, box canyon, Piedra Falls and about 2.8 million acres of National Forest and pristine Wilderness Area gateway is a three-minute drive to the north? Also, there is a gated entry into the Turkey Springs area at the cul de sac, just up the street. I suspect you're feeling the need to visit this lovely home for yourself.  Feel free to call for more detailed information and, better yet, plan to see it soon.
