An adobe wall provides an enclosed area for your dog to enjoy. The reading room in the front of the home looks out on the mountains to the east and gets lots of morning sun. A lovely second bedroom has a nearby full bathroom and makes a private, welcoming guest suite. The kitchen's earthtones, granite countertops, and beautiful, hickory cabinets provide a gorgeous place to cook your favorite meals. The island is a nice spot for a quick bite on the run. The dining area is between the kitchen and living room. The big master bedroom has large windows facing west and enjoys spectacular sunsets over the Collegiate Peaks. A new wood-burning stove in the living room provides a cozy ambience and warmth in winter as well as emergency heat if the electric power goes out. The three car 20 sq ft garage has plenty of room for vehicles and storage. Casa Del Rio is a peaceful quiet community that provides easy access to the Arkansas River for solitude and tranquility.
