Float easily through the space into your playful and happily-adorned kitchen - just big enough for entertaining, with refreshing green cabinets, wooden countertops, convenient island counter space, and a hanging pot rack above your generous two-basin farmhouse ceramic sink, both excellent for preparing freshly-made meals. Your fully-equipped kitchen also contains updated stainless steel appliances and all your daily kitchen accessories - feel free to brew a fresh coffee with local Bonfire grounds, sauté summer squash from the Carbondale Farmers Market, whip up some blueberry pancakes, or prepare lunches for your next Thomas Lakes hiking trip or Glenwood hot springs outing.

As you continue through this authentic and earthy home, you may pop outside via the sliding door off the kitchen that opens to an expansive sun-filled backyard with space to roam, two mature evergreen trees, raised garden beds, a paver-style path and petite grass lawn area, surrounded by enclosed fencing.
