This updated 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is located in the charming small community of Howard and sits on a spacious 1-acre lot, offering spectacular views of the Sangre De Cristo Mountain Range and easy access to the Arkansas River's Gold Medal Fishing waters. The home features a large, bright kitchen with a generous bar and counter space, newer vinyl tile on the main level and a cozy wood-burning fireplace in the family room. The 4th bedroom and 3rd bathroom are located in a separate space with an independent entrance located above the garage... think private studio space or guest room. Outside, enjoy newer stucco, roof, gutters and decking. The patio spaces are extensive and there's French drains too. You will appreciate the ample availability for parking of RV's, trailers or new workshop/garage, all without the restrictions of a Homeowners Association or covenants. Located on the west side of Howard, it's just a scenic 15-minute drive east along the river to Salida, 45 minutes to Monarch Mountain Ski Resort, and 45 minutes to Canon City.
