Towering canyon walls, nearly 700 feet of prime Arkansas River frontage, and a warm mountain cabin feel come together at this truly one of a kind Cotopaxi property. Set along a breathtaking stretch of the Arkansas River in Bighorn Sheep Canyon, the setting feels private, peaceful, and unmistakably Colorado while still offering easy year round access directly from Highway 50. Positioned on approximately 1.05 acres, the 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home offers 1,661 square feet of inviting living space with a thoughtful blend of rustic character and contemporary mountain style. Soaring vaulted wood ceilings, massive windows, rich wood finishes, and abundant natural light create an atmosphere that perfectly complements the surrounding landscape. The great room showcases stunning floor to ceiling windows framing the canyon walls, while the wood burning fireplace adds warmth and mountain charm. The flexible layout includes spacious living and dining areas, beautifully updated bathrooms, an updated primary suite with ensuite bath and sitting area or office space, and a kitchen positioned to capture incredible river views directly from the sink. Outdoor living is a centerpiece of the property with expansive riverside decking, seating areas along the water, mature trees, and direct access to the Arkansas River. Few properties offer this level of usable river frontage combined with such dramatic natural scenery. The property also includes a detached oversized 2 car garage with workspace and storage area, along with a separate 240 square foot cabin with power that creates the perfect rustic Colorado retreat for guests, recreation, or creative space. Gold medal fishing, rafting, kayaking, hiking, and endless outdoor recreation are right outside your door, conveniently located between Salida and Canon City. Whether you are searching for a full time residence, mountain getaway, or legacy river property, this is a truly rare opportunity along one of Colorado's most iconic rivers.
