Welcome to your Colorado dream log home on 5 private acres of soaring Ponderosa pines, located in Timberdale Ranch northwest of Bayfield. This charming 2 bedroom 2 bath home, plus a loft upstairs and a den on the lower level, has been thoughtfully updated and well-maintained by its owners. INTERIOR: The walk-out basement level of the home has a heated two car garage, a finished den/hobby area with built-in bookshelves, and separate laundry and storage rooms, with attractive sliding barn doors. Upstairs on the main level of the home, accessed from the large deck, you will find a great room with living, dining, and kitchen areas, a main level bedroom, and a nicely updated full bath with soaking tub. The great room has soaring vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, a beautiful Hearthstone woodstove with slate tile surround, and engineered wood flooring. The kitchen has been beautifully updated with new cabinets, granite countertops, and updated stainless steel appliances. There is a roomy breakfast bar which opens to the dining area, and a sliding glass door leads you out to the spacious deck, perfect for entertaining and enjoying the peaceful mountain setting. Upstairs is a spacious bedroom, a nicely appointed 3/4 bath, and a roomy loft that works well as a den or an office. The home receives plenty of passive solar gain via southern exposure. EXTERIOR: Besides the spacious deck this home offers plenty of outdoor living space, with raised garden beds, fenced yard, storage shed, woodshed and RV parking. The septic was replaced with an engineered system in 2020, and the well is plentiful and close to an underground spring. The well augmentation agreement allows outside irrigation, including watering of animals. The property has been fire-mitigated and the driveway provides easy, almost flat access. Across the road from this home is open space, which is sometimes a small lake depending on winter snowfall. If you are looking for horse facilities, there is a two stall 24x16 barn on the property with power, or the barn is perfect for storing your tractor and recreational equipment. Horses, 4H animals and chickens are allowed. Allow yourself to be inspired by natural beauty all around and a lifestyle that is rarely available at this price and condition in our area.
