Private Gold Medal fishing and breath taking views of the red cliffs and the Frying Pan River enhance this very well done contemporary home. Originally an architect's home, the house was recently renovated and extensively upgraded. The property provides access to a continuous half mile of fishing on the Frying Pan. A hot tub with a private picturesque setting is a welcome amenity after a day of fishing and lawns overlooking the river present a wonderful spot to meditate or just hang out. The floor plan is open and inviting with a kitchen for gathering and gourmet cooking. Four bedrooms plus den and office give you all you need to never leave. However you are just minutes from Downtown Basalt for dining and shopping when you want to venture out . A little paradise to call your own.
