Welcome to 236 Ash Avenue — a thoughtfully updated home offering comfort, functionality, and exceptional outdoor living in a quiet, friendly Rifle neighborhood.  Inside, you’ll find an inviting open living area created by removing the upstairs built-in bookshelf and stone fireplace, giving the home a more spacious and connected feel. New flooring upstairs, new tile leading to the back sliding door, a new heater, water softener system, new refrigerator, and new washer provide modern updates and peace of mind. Windows were replaced in 2023, adding efficiency and natural light throughout.  Step outside and discover what truly sets this property apart. The garden has been lovingly cultivated with enriched soil over several years and is known for producing outstanding vegetables. The expanded backyard features lush grass, flower beds, a charming pond, fire pit area, and added fencing around the patio for privacy. Evenings on the back patio are especially special — enjoy cooler Colorado nights, watch hummingbirds pass through, and take in beautiful sky and mountain views.  Additional highlights include a detached shop, a she-shed attached to the back patio, a tin storage shed, and an RV pad with hookups. The fenced backyard offers both functionality and privacy. The neighborhood is quiet yet welcoming, where neighbors know each other by name and many long-time residents contribute to a stable, friendly community atmosphere. 236 Ash Avenue is a place to garden, gather, unwind, and truly enjoy Colorado living — inside and out.
