13780 County Road 251A Salida, CO 81201

At the end of the road, 35± private acres adjoin BLM land and National Forest with private Colorado Trail access and sweeping Arkansas River Valley views. A gated entrance and asphalt driveway lead to a mountain legacy estate with no covenants, room for horses and livestock, a private rifle range and space for barns or shops. The well permit reportedly accommodates up to three residences, subject to verification and land-use approvals. Hike, bike, ride horseback or explore nearby hunting country. The Arkansas River, Monarch skiing and natural hot springs offer adventure and relaxation, while changing mountain light inspires creative pursuits. Inside, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, cherry floors, two fireplaces and custom maple cabinetry create warm sophistication. Five bedrooms, four baths and an executive office join a walkout family room, wet bar, fitness studio, billiard area and storage. The kitchen features granite, premium Viking and Miele appliances, double ovens, a warming drawer, pantry and breakfast room. A gas grill hookup and prep station beneath the kitchen pass-through window simplify outdoor entertaining. An alabaster chandelier and wall of windows frame the Arkansas River Valley for formal dining. The primary suite offers travertine, marble floors, a jetted tub and private hot tub patio. Four lower-level bedrooms, including a second primary suite, offer direct patio access. Decks, balconies and stamped-concrete patios embrace the setting. Hydronic in-floor heat, a heated three-car garage and parking apron, heat-traced gutters and a concrete tile roof support year-round comfort. A Generac whole-home standby generator supplies automatic backup power, while security monitoring adds peace of mind. Updates include a well pump, boiler improvements, water systems, redundant Starlink WiFi, fencing, roof maintenance, septic servicing, landscaping and defensible-space fire mitigation. An opportunity too rare to pass up. A legacy worth passing down.
