Mountain Contemporary Living

Land Description

Mountain Contemporary Living with Big Views in Cherokee Heights. Set on 3.02 acres in the Cherokee Heights subdivision, this mountain contemporary home delivers privacy, space, and commanding views of the Collegiate Peaks. The setting feels tucked away, yet still convenient to Salida, with mature trees, open sky, and a sense of quiet that defines this neighborhood. The main level is designed for easy everyday living. The primary suite and a second oversized bedroom are both located on this level, each with access to the covered deck and pergola, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. Vaulted wood ceilings, expansive windows, and natural light frame the views and anchor the open living and dining areas. The kitchen offers generous workspace and storage, flowing naturally into the main living space and out to the deck. A wide open staircase leads to the walkout basement, which functions as a true second living area. The lower level includes a massive family room with a gas stove and wet bar, ideal for gatherings, movie nights, or hosting guests. A dedicated office space with built in desk, a third bedroom, and a full bathroom complete this level. The utility room features two hot water heaters, and a cedar lined walk in closet, adding practical storage and flexibility. Outdoor living is a highlight. The fenced backyard includes a covered patio, upper deck, established landscaping, and an outlet ready for a hot tub. It is a private and functional space designed for year-round use. The attached oversized two car garage offers additional room for workshop space, gear storage, and includes an exterior access door for convenience. This is a well-designed mountain home with strong indoor and outdoor living, thoughtful separation of spaces, and sweeping Collegiate Peaks views. A solid fit for full time living or a mountain retreat with room to spread out.
