River front property in the City of Salida is hard to come by. This three bedroom, ranch style home is bikeable or walkable to all of your favorite Downtown spots only 1 mile away. Inside has a spacious kitchen and dining area. The picture window looks south to the mountains and is a perfect place for plants or a reading bench. A living room is off of the kitchen with a sliding door that will take you to the back yard. The living space is open and comfortable for entertaining or just hanging out. The bedrooms are at the back of the house. The third bedroom has another sliding door that heads out to the riverside of the home. It’s picturesque with mature trees, a privacy fence, and the Arkansas River at a calm spot in the flow with a few light rapids giving the perfect river sound. This is an older home, but it has been completely brought up to modern times with updated utilities, a metal roof, and stucco exterior that is in great condition. The house is at the back of the lot taking full advantage of the river, leaving plenty of room in the front yard for a detached garage or possible ADU.
