Welcome to Laverde Estates the gateway to all the Spectacular experiences that Southwest Colorado has to offer. This well crafted masterpiece is just 3 miles from the center of Cortez and is situated on an irrigated 7.25 Acre corner lot. There are breathtaking views in every direction and the moment that you walk through the front door of this home you can feel the sense of warmth and comfort that's undeniable. The craftsmanship of this 2600sf home is incredible with accents of Timber Framed Post and Beam. The owners did a fantastic job blending different materials such ornate tile, incredible cabinetry, beautiful wood floors, high end appliances, glass and porcelain, tongue and groove with the island and counters finished with miles of a high quality grade of granite. Everywhere you look you'll be amazed at the joinery and precision of the construction techniques. Attached to the kitchen and formal dining area is a spectacular solarium for relaxing and reflecting as you peer out the large windows overlooking the well maintained grounds. Entertaining, well we've got that covered with a huge outside trex deck that faces east so hot afternoons are nice and cool while enjoying great times with friends and family. If the weather is cooperating for entertaining outside then everything can be moved inside to the large lower level family room with plenty of space to entertain, play poker or get together for those Sunday afternoon football games. The Private master bedroom and master bath are really nicely done with lots of tile and glass accents and a huge walk in closet. The master bedroom also has access to the loft office that overlooks the living room below. The remaining two bedrooms are nicely sized and serviced by the main bath. There is a large laundry room with great cabinets and a nice counter for folding clothes or sewing. The attached garage is awesome with most of the wall space covered in peg board and although it can fit 3 vehicles, the 3rd bay is designed as a nice work shop and extra storage. There are 2 mini splits that help heat and cool the Living Room and Master Bedroom and to pellets stoves with one in the living room and the other keeps the family room toasty on those chilly days. Out back is a really sweet 4 bay pole barn with one bay having a concrete floor. The potable water is source is a Montezuma Water Company membership and the irrigation water is MVI water held in the LaVerde Estates Water Users Association.
