948 Sage Rd, Montrose, CO 81403

Your private mountain retreat awaits you! This lovely 1.5-story ranch-style home with a southwestern flare is conveniently situated almost equidistant between Ridgway and Montrose in Ouray County on 40+ acres. Tucked behind a metal privacy fence along Sage Road, the circular driveway leads you to the home past the main 2-car garage attached via a covered walkway to the front porch and entryway. A separate RV garage sits along the other side of the driveway. The front side of the home leads you down a short hall to the north bedroom with a glass door to the outside deck. Towards the southend of the hall, you find a 3/4 bathroom, the utility room, and the large 2nd bedroom which can easily serve as an office, studio, game room, or media room. It has great storage with 2 separate closets. The entry way from the hallway leads to the spacious living room with large picture windows that frame the spectacular 280-degree views of the entire San Juan Mountain Range to the south and the Elk Mountains and Grand Mesa, and Montrose Valley to the north. The 1288 square-foot wrap-around Trex-composite deck provides wonderful outdoor living space. The interior of the home boasts warm yet subtle southwestern colors and finishes, beautifully complemented by the hardwood floors, tongue and groove pine wood ceilings, and inlay formica faux turquoise granite countertops in the kitchen with terraccota floor tiling. The kitchen cabinetry provides plenty of storage, including slide-out drawers, corner lazy Susan, pantry, and appliance garage. The propane gas fireplace insert will keep you warm and add ambiance on cool nights, and central air will cool you on hot summer days. The private master suite is situated upstairs with its own 112 sq. ft. balcony and a full bathroom with a line-of-sight view of Mt. Sneffels. You'll find extra living space in the finished bonus/flex room above the oversized main garage, a great spot for guests or teenagers. The separate, tall 32' x 16' RV garage can fit a large RV or boat and still have ample room for other toys, gear, and equipment. Additional covered parking can be found in the carport on the east side of the main garage where 2 vehicles parked in tandem can fit. The 40 wooded acres are flat to slightly sloping and cleared for fire mitigation and offer ample space for horses or other livestock and chickens. More storage and a workspace can be found in the partially finished crawlspace, easily accessible from a door in the side of the foundation. This unique and beautiful, on-grid mountain home truly offers something for everyone, whether as a permanent, full-time residence or a vacation get-away.
