Wide Open Space, Zero HOA, and a Shop That Changes the Game. Nearly three acres just minutes from downtown Salida, no HOA, no covenants, no nonsense. This 2.98 acre property delivers freedom, function, and a fully renovated home so you can move in without a to do list. The home has been taken down to the bones and rebuilt the right way. New kitchen, furnace, drywall, plumbing, electrical, and septic are already done. Clean. Solid. Turnkey. Inside, the single level layout is bright and easy to live in. Hickory kitchen cabinets, updated appliances, and a natural flow between living and dining spaces make it feel open and comfortable. A wood stove adds real mountain character, while large windows pull in light and views. Step straight out to the concrete back patio with iron pergola, perfect for outdoor meals or quiet evenings. A dedicated pad with hot tub hookups is already in place. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms give you room to spread out. The primary suite is a standout with sweeping mountain views, double vanity, and a beautifully finished walk in shower. A flex space connects the suite to the laundry area and works well as an office, nursery, or dressing room. Then there is the shop. A 1,548 square foot detached garage and workspace measuring 42 by 36 feet with 16 foot ceilings. The oversized 14 by 16 foot overhead door easily fits RVs, trailers, or large equipment. Fully insulated, wired with a 220V welding outlet, and ready for heat. This is the kind of shop that is almost impossible to replace and opens the door to serious projects, storage, or a home based business. The land is flat, open, and usable. Plenty of room for animals, gardens, or simply space to breathe. A private well and no restrictions mean you get to decide how this property works for you. If you want acreage near Salida, real utility, and a move in ready home with zero red tape, this one just became a lot more compelling.
