About this home
Looking for that Salida-area mountain property with privacy, big sky, and serious space to breathe? This 40-acre off-grid homestead is not for everyone, but for the right soul, it is everything. Perched high with top-of-the-world views you have to see to believe, this southwest-inspired straw bale home blends durability with unique charm. Well-insulated and thoughtfully designed, it captures passive solar warmth through its southern exposure, filling the space with natural light year-round. Wind generated power is also utilized to keep the home fully functional. Inside, tiled floors and countertops, handcrafted cabinets with southwest flair, a window over the kitchen sink with views all the way to Salida, and a cozy wood-burning stove in the Great Room create a warm, grounded feel - especially during those crisp mountain evenings. The layout includes a primary bedroom with patio access, an en suite bathroom, and a walk-in tiled shower. A second bedroom (or ideal office) includes a loft space for whimsical versatility. Step outside to a private patio where the silence stretches for miles and the stars overhead are your neighbors. This home is not for the faint of heart - it is for the ones who thrive beyond the grid, who seek quiet over convenience, and who see 40 acres not as work, but as freedom. Well allows for an additional home, 1 acre lawn/garden, and domestic animals. Home is located along a private road in which you must be accompanied by a broker (sorry, no drive bys). Note: This is one of 3 adjacent properties being offered for sale, giving you an opportunity to purchase 120 acres with a total of 3 homes if desired.
