About This Home
Peaceful Small-Town Living Surrounded by Colorado’s Natural Beauty! Well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath home located in a quiet small-town community in Southwest Colorado. This comfortable and easy-to-care-for home features a practical layout well suited for those looking more for adventures than taking care of a large home.

Two sheds allow ample storage or could be used as a workshop. This home is warm, inviting and comfortable. Enjoy the convenience of nearby schools, medical services, and local shopping, all while being surrounded by the region’s incredible natural beauty—national parks, mountains, high desert, and canyonlands are just a short drive away. A great opportunity to enjoy small-town living with everyday conveniences and endless outdoor recreation. Whether you're looking for a seasonal 2nd home, your first home, downsizing or upsizing, this is a great investment!
