About 125 Crestone Mesa Drive A
Some homes simply make Salida living easy. Set directly across from Crestone Mesa Park, this exceptionally well-kept townhome enjoys sweeping mountain views, with the park preserving an open foreground toward the surrounding peaks. The grassy park, playground, pavilion and community garden are just steps away, while nearby walking/biking paths provide an easy connection to town. The upper level is the heart of the home, featuring an open floor plan, soaring great-room ceilings, abundant natural light, automated window shades and balconies that keep the mountain setting front and center. In-floor radiant heat and on-demand hot water add efficient, everyday comfort throughout the home. The primary bedroom opens to its own balcony overlooking the backyard toward S Mountain, with a modular privacy screen thoughtfully positioned to provide separation without compromising the views. Downstairs, one of the home’s three bedrooms is currently used as a flexible sitting and work space, with a desk positioned toward the park and mountains, creating quite the backdrop for a work-from-home setup. The side entrance offers a welcoming alternative entry through a tucked-away area, where the current owner has created a peaceful setting with a bubbling fountain and fragrant plants. The fenced backyard continues the low-maintenance approach with xeriscaping while the front features mulch, deer-resistant perennials and timer-controlled drip irrigation. Behind the home, a finished one-car garage with alley access provides convenient storage for boats, skis, outdoor gear and all the equipment that comes with a Salida lifestyle, plus an additional off-street parking space. Owned by the same owner since 2020 and used primarily as a weekend landing spot, the home has been lightly lived in and meticulously cared for. Equally suited for full-time living or an easy lock-and-leave basecamp, this property brings together views, location, thoughtful outdoor spaces and refreshingly simple upkeep.
