About 517 Murphy Dr

Charming and well-maintained, this inviting home is ideally located just down the street from Adams State University. It features 3 bedrooms with built-in cabinetry and 3 bathrooms: a fully remodeled full bath in the hallway (updated approximately 6 years ago), a 3/4 bath off the primary suite, and a half bath in the spacious family room. The large family room at the back of the home was added in 1980 and was built with 2x6 studs and 6-inch walls for enhanced insulation. It boasts beautiful aspen paneling and a highly efficient, well-insulated wood stove in the corner—perfect for cozy gatherings. The home is topped with a durable metal roof installed in the 90's and has been lovingly cared for over the years. Most recently, the exterior was professionally stained in October 2024.

Both the front and back yards are beautifully landscaped and equipped with an automatic sprinkler system.
