Description

Step into history in this beautifully restored Stone School updated and modernized while maintaining the character of its time. Enjoy morning coffee and mountain views on the large, slate tiled covered front porch. Stepping inside, the spacious living room with wood burning stove will welcome you in on restored hardwood floors. The master suite sits off to the side and has an updated bathroom with travertine tile accents and its own private access to the front porch. The gorgeous and massive kitchen with granite countertops, modern appliances and updated lighting is a chef's dream with a butcher block island and loads of counter space and storage. The adjacent dining room will be a gathering place for friends and family and is large enough to accommodate a big group. With five spaces that can be utilized as bedrooms, one is non-conforming without proper egress and is ideally suited as a home office, gym or play area. There's a large den with french doors and a closet that can also be used as a bedroom. In addition to the master bedroom, there's another bedroom with an en suite bath, making this a perfect home for multi-generational living. The Stone School has been featured in modern literature and is within OHV and horseback riding range of thousands of acres of BLM and Forest Service public lands that extend up to the Uncompahgre Plateau. The home features a working well, automated sprinklers, garden and livestock watering system on 1.72 acres. It comes complete with a John Deere riding mower, a wood splitter, back-up generator, a large wood furnace and a nearly 5 year supply of split firewood. There's a fenced lawn area that includes a playset and trampoline and provides a safe space for children to play. Three large patios provide ample space to enjoy the peaceful serenity of living in farm country and there's also a basketball court with hoop included. A small shop/garage with electricity and covered side parking and storage is located out back. All of this can be found in a quiet, country setting surrounded by farmland, with plenty of shade trees, livestock facilities and no HOA! The town of Olathe is about 10 minutes away and has some of the best schools around. If you're looking for a unique home that has room for the whole family, all of their toys and offers the freedom to live the lifestyle of your choosing, this could be it!
