Our home is perched on an 80 foot high bluff overlooking the Yampa River, hay meadows, Emerald Mountain the ski area and stars at night. It is 2800 square feet, two stories on a full basement. The property is 20 acres and accesses the Yampa. It is a great place for wildlife viewing of all kinds with lots of outdoor space for kids and hanging out by the river or fishing for Brown, Rainbow, Cutthroat trout and Pike.
Bed configuration is four queens and a double in separate bedrooms. There is a futon in the basement sitting room.
Description of the house:
In the basement there is a sitting room with foosball and futon, full bathroom and two basement bedrooms with large opening windows. A laundry room adjoins the sitting room.
The main floor comprises an open floor plan with a wood stove for cozy heat, living area with TV/Stereo, formal dining area, island and large kitchen. Many windows and both doors open onto big decks, partially covered and wraping around two sides of the house. An entryway and half bathroom are also on the main floor.
On the top floor is another sitting room with desk, phone, DSLwifi/fax/copier/printer. A master bedroom with bathroom and two other bedrooms and a bathroom fill out the top floor.
We remodeled the house in 2008 with new appliances, paint, decks, carpets, wood stove, sidewalks etc. so it is clean and nice.

Why the Owner Chose Private Homes, Unspecified
We built this house and lived here for ten years. We still love coming here and intend to hang onto this property for that reason.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Easy access to town with country living. The location is exceptional with river frontage, fantastic views and some acreage for kicking around on. Being on the river is irreplaceable.
Older nine hole course, lovely setting. Least expensive in Steamboat area.
We are both pilots. If you are a pilot this is a fun airport. Close to our house. Mountain check outs available. Ask us if you have any questions re. flying in.
Owner's Map of Private Homes, Unspecified
We were married on the river bank here and have many wonderful memories of this property. It will probably always be a work in progress and is dear to us. All we ask is that you care for it as you would your own.
