Colorado Mesa View
We fell in love with our first home despite the bright orange tub/sinks in one bathroom and pink toilet & sink in the other along with numerous other quirky choices and needed updates.
It offered tons of space, 26 acres of land & best of all, a room hidden behind a large bookcase! Inside that room there was a door that opened to a concrete "valuables" room with a heavy duty safe with a 4" thick lid built into the floor! (the seller added it when he built the home to protect the high value items he would sometimes sell at his trading post on the Ute Reservation)
As first time home owners, we were like so many who can only make improvements over the years as finances allow. But we did as much as we could ourselves & with time we completely transformed & updated the home. We also added a guest cottage that functioned as a popular vacation rental until we moved in 2014.
