81 Rio Vista Circle

This brand-new, Amish-built 2,500 sq ft home blends classic farmhouse charm with sleek, modern upgrades—just a stone’s throw from the Rio Grande River. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and thoughtful design throughout, this property is both beautiful and practical. Soaring 18-foot ceilings in the great room and oversized windows bring the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light and framing the mountain views. The oversized kitchen is a showstopper, featuring an enormous granite island, distressed antique-style cabinetry, stainless appliances including an electric stove/range, a commercial style, exterior vented exhaust hood, french-door refrigerator/freezer, a top of the line dishwasher, a beautiful, deep farmhouse sink, and a roomy, walk-in pantry with a charming custom glass door. Other thoughtful kitchen touches include a dedicated pop out/up cabinet for your standing mixer, and a pull out drawer near the sink featuring both a trash can and a recyling bin. Polished and stained concrete floors offer beautiful, modern styling, with easy-to-clean practicality. The great room centers around a rustic gas fireplace and showcases rich wood accents and a grand wall of glass. Radiant in-floor heating and an on-demand hot water system—both fueled by propane—keep the home cozy, while high-speed fiber internet from Ciello keeps you connected. Outdoors, enjoy over 700 square feet of covered patio space—perfect for taking in Colorado’s fresh mountain air. There's a dedicated spot ready for your outdoor grill with propane and power already in place. Around the corner, a pergola-covered area is prepped and waiting for your future hot tub. The home sits on a ¼ acre lot just five minutes from the Rio Grande Club & Resort and only 18 miles to Wolf Creek Ski Area—ideal for golfers, skiers, and anyone who loves the outdoors. Vacation rentals are allowed in this neighborhood (with a city permit,) giving you the option to generate income if desired. The oversized two-car attached garage has a thoughtfully placed work bench, and 220 volt electrical service for a welder. Above the garage is a 150 sq ft unfinished bonus space—perfect for a media room, extra bedroom, or even a cigar lounge. (My husband made me include that last bit.) If you’ve been waiting for that perfect blend of rugged style, modern comfort, and mountain-town magic—this one checks all the boxes. Please check the virtual tours section for a link to the covenants, a drone video, a 3D Matterport Tour, and an informal on-the-ground video walkthrough. (Please note - some of the photos look like there is carpet, especially in the bedrooms, but it's all polished gray concrete.)
