About 1702 E Macarthur Ave

A Charming Home for Sale in Cortez, CO This delightful 3-4 bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers an abundance of features designed for comfort, practicality, and beauty. Located in the heart of Southwest Colorado, this property combines the serenity of nature with the conveniences of modern living. From a thoughtfully crafted interior to an equally enchanting outdoor space, this home truly has so much to offer. Stepping inside, you’ll immediately notice the meticulous care and attention that has gone into maintaining this home. The hardwood flooring has been restored to its original glory by stripping, sanding, staining, and finishing with multiple coats of polyurethane, resulting in a stunningly preserved floor that radiates warmth and sophistication. Complementing the hardwood are sections of tile, partial carpeting, and a practical linoleum in the sunroom, offering a variety of textures and aesthetics throughout the home. The primary bedroom is a peaceful retreat, set apart from the other bedrooms for added privacy. It boasts an ensuite bathroom, providing convenience and a sense of luxury. On the other side of the house, two bedrooms have been cleverly combined, creating a versatile space that can adapt to your family’s needs. Originally intended to accommodate a kitchenette for a parent or guest, these rooms are now divided by a lovely sliding barn door. One of the rooms is currently being utilized as an office, complete with an exit door leading to the deck, adding functionality and charm. The privacy deck has been re-stained; the louvre privacy shade opens and closes for whatever needs you have at the moment. Moving outdoors, you’ll find a space that is as captivating as the interior. Exiting through the office deck door, you are greeted by a wall of lilacs that borders Henry Street, creating a private and tranquil oasis. Nearby, a small water feature enhances the ambiance, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a quiet moment with a refreshing beverage. The fire pit is a great place for relaxing under the stars at night. On the opposite end of the home lies another magical outdoor area. Sheltered by a greenhouse and privacy fencing, a flower garden has been lovingly curated, accompanied by a second water feature for added serenity. The greenhouse provides a dedicated space for nurturing your plants year-round, whether it’s vegetables, flowers, or exotic greenery. This property has been designed with functionality in mind. You’ll find a workshop and a storage shed, both equipped with electricity, making them ideal for completing projects, storing equipment, or pursuing hobbies. A carport in the backyard currently serves as additional storage space—but could easily revert to its original function as a shelter for your vehicle or lawn equipment. For pet lovers or gardening enthusiasts, there’s a separately fenced area that could be used as a dog run or as an expansion of your gardening efforts. This versatility ensures that the outdoor space can adapt to meet your unique needs. Situated in Cortez, CO, this home is conveniently close to parks, shopping, and dining establishments, making day-to-day errands simple and enjoyable. The town provides easy access to outdoor adventures, cultural experiences, and a welcoming community atmosphere that makes living here a joy. With its myriad features, this property exemplifies both charm and practicality. The recent updates—including high-quality interior and exterior paint—ensure that the home is ready for its next chapter without requiring immediate renovations. Whether you’re captivated by the gorgeous hardwood flooring, the privacy of the primary bedroom, the versatility of combined rooms, or the enchanting outdoor spaces, this house is tailored for individuals or families seeking comfort, charm, and functionality. This could be YOUR forever home!
