Majestic location combined with privacy and views of picturesque mountains and the Hermosa Red Cliffs creates the superior setting for this aesthetic custom built 5950 SF 4 bedroom, 5 ½ bath home nestled in the Sanctuary Subdivision in the heart of the much sought-after North Animas Valley. This solidly constructed home boasts exterior and interior log and moss rock accents with the outside framed with stucco and solid moss rock veneer. The interior of this home is eloquently designed, crafted, and styled with large windows, log and moss rock accents in the living room, together with a solid moss rock fireplace and wet bar. Flooring consists of a mix of tile, carpet, and Australian Cypress wood floors, and all interior doors are solid knotty Alder wood. Large functional kitchen with top-grade appliances, Jenn-air induction range, KitchenAid double oven, and side by side freezer refrigerator with water/ice maker, microwave, and a warming drawer. Corian countertop along the walls and granite countertop on the kitchen island. There is one pantry and lots of cabinets for storage. First-floor large master bedroom and bathroom with access from the bedroom to the outside custom-built patio and convenient access to the hot tub. There is a small office downstairs off the hallway and another larger office/bonus room upstairs. Extra-large laundry room with laundry chute, a washer and dryer, countertop space, and an extra full freezer and refrigerator/freezer. The second floor has three spacious bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom and large closets. Spend time in the family/craft room or better yet the large open media entertainment room with a wet bar built above the oversized 2 car garage. You and your guest will also enjoy the large deck off the media room, with its privacy and views. This house was built to take advantage of all the views and usable space in a practical way for family and/or entertaining. Two whole house attic fans are installed in the second-floor ceiling which keeps this house cool in the summer. Now the big bonus, in 2018 a large custom-built covered Patio with log post and open beam construction, flagstone flooring, solid rock fireplace, and seating areas give ample space for family living and entertaining friends and guests. New roof shingles were installed in 2008 with a snowmelt system installed in 2018. The concrete driveway also has an installed snowmelt system but is never finalized for operation and use. Animas Consolidated and Hermosa Ditch run along the west and north boundaries respectively, with a lateral ditch running through the front of the property creating a tranquil setting. In addition to the irrigation rights held by the Subdivision for its membership, the owner has a separate domestic well used for irrigating this 0.688-acre parcel and there is National Forest access through the west side of the subdivision. This original owner custom built home has been well maintained with pride of ownership

throughout and is ready for the first time to a new family!
