Rare creek-front ranch-style log home in the township of Rye with no covenants, no HOA! This custom-built log home offers true single-level living with a versatile loft, ideal for a home office or extra storage. The authentic log cabin interior is warm and inviting, anchored by a beautiful fireplace with abundant natural light throughout. Don't miss a true piece of Rye history: the wrought iron railings were built and installed by Jim Bishop himself.
The kitchen opens to a comfortable dining room, with four bedrooms on the main level. The primary suite is a private retreat featuring vaulted ceilings with retractable skylights and an ensuite bath with soaking tub, standalone shower, and walk-in closet. Off the primary, a flex room opens directly to the creekside perfect as a home office, family room, or extension of the suite, with the sound of the water making slow mornings even better.
The opposite side of the home functions almost as a secondary unit, with its own separate entrance an ideal setup for a short-term rental (Airbnb/VRBO), guest quarters, or multi-generational living. This wing includes two additional bedrooms, a non-conforming bedroom, and a full bathroom with a classic clawfoot tub. Ample storage throughout. Outdoor living is a true highlight. The wrap-around porch is built for slow mornings and long evenings by the creek, and the private backyard features a hot tub for soaking under the stars. An oversized 1200 square feet 3-car garage with dedicated workshop space handles vehicles, tools, and projects with room to spare, plus plenty of additional parking for trailers, RVs, and recreational toys.This property is truly unmatched! Rye delivers small-town southern Colorado living -- camping, fishing, hiking, Bishop Castle, Lake Beckwith, and the Greenhorn Bartlett Trail all at your doorstep, with quick access to Pueblo for shopping and amenities and Colorado Springs within easy reach.
