Improvements

It does not get much better than this charming, single-level home in the heart of Westcliffe, Colorado. The main residence offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sunroom, separate laundry room, and an inviting open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area. Large picture windows frame magnificent views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, while a wood-burning fireplace insert and propane forced-air furnace provide year-round comfort. Laminate flooring extends through the main living areas, newer stainless-steel appliances complement the kitchen, and new carpet has been installed in the primary bedroom.
