About This Home

A rare offering in the valley along the Rio Hondo, this reimagined mountain retreat captures a sense of history and place that's increasingly hard to find. Originally rooted over a century ago, the home has been thoughtfully reconstructed and modernized for lasting quality while preserving its authentic character. Set on scenic acreage with river frontage, the property offers a level of privacy and serenity that stands apart from typical luxury offerings in the area. Mature trees, flowing water, and expansive valley views create a setting designed for quiet enjoyment, connection to nature, and true mountain living.
