About This Home
8995 Salix Road, Salida Colorado
Modern riverfront living on one of the best stretches of the Arkansas River. This custom home sits on a wide, elevated bend of the river with roughly 240 feet of private frontage and unobstructed views of the Collegiate Peaks. The setting is quiet, open, and soaked in natural light, backed by cottonwoods and big sky. It feels private without feeling isolated.
The home itself is polished, efficient, and built to frame the views. Floor to ceiling glass pulls the mountains and river straight into the living space. Concrete floors, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a bold, clean design give the interior a modern lodge feel. The kitchen is sharp and functional with wood countertops, matte cabinetry, and high quality appliances including a standout red Smeg fridge. The layout is simple and smart with one bedroom, one bath, and an open concept great room that wastes zero space.
Outside, the covered patio and wrap of windows give you year-round connection to the river and surrounding landscape. The lot is nearly flat up top with a gentle falloff to the water, offering natural privacy and a strong building position for future expansion.
The septic is engineered for two homes, and the property comes with plans for a larger residence, giving you a head start if you want a primary home with this structure serving as a guest house or short-term rental. Power, well, and infrastructure are already in place. The location is minutes to Salida but feels like a world of its own.
A rare riverfront property with clean modern design, big views, and room to grow.
