Welcome to your private mountain sanctuary in the picturesque town of La Veta, Colorado-where everyday living feels like a scenic escape. Tucked away on nearly 5 serene acres in the coveted Tres Valles community, this custom 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is where rustic elegance meets relaxed Colorado living. Surrounded by towering pines and dramatic mountain vistas, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy, nature, and comfort. Step through the front door and you'll be greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere-thanks to radiant in-floor heating and a beautiful fireplace that becomes the heart of the home. Vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings draw the eye upward and add authentic mountain charm, while expansive windows flood the open-concept living space with natural light and stunning views of the wooded landscape beyond. The generously sized primary suite is your personal retreat, featuring a walk-in closet, ample space for a sitting area, and a luxurious garden tub just waiting for long, peaceful soaks. The partially finished full basement is bursting with potential-create a media room, home gym, guest quarters, or all of the above. Outside, the property continues to impress with a 2-car attached garage, a separate workshop for all your hobbies and tools, a storage shed for gear and seasonal decor, and a dedicated fenced dog run so your furry friends can enjoy the Colorado lifestyle, too. And for peace of mind, this home is located in a fire-wise community, which not only contributes to a safer environment but may also positively affect your insurance rates. And here's the best part: this home comes with an assumable VA loan, making it a rare opportunity for qualified buyers to lock in a potentially lower interest rate. Even better, the seller is motivated-so bring your offer and bring your dreams! Schedule your private tour today-and fall head over hiking boots for your next home.
