This historic Greenhorn Ranch consists of 169+/- acres of valley grassland, rolling hills, and the ‘Little Graneros Creek' running through the center of it. The property is 5 miles from Rye, 3 miles from Colorado City, and is in the prestigious School District-70. The 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch-style home has 1,380 sq ft on the main level with a 1,320 sq ft livable basement. There is an attached 1-car garage and a covered patio at the back of the home, perfect for grilling or outdoor relaxation. The property has several outbuildings that can provide space for a workshop, equipment storage, chicken coop, or whatever would fit your needs. There is also a large barn that was built in the 1930s using blocks from the Walsenburg Coal Mine. Existing pens surround the barn and can be used by a new owner to improve upon the corrals. The property is partially fenced, with the grassland consisting mainly of brome grass. On the north side of the home, there is a connected well that can also provide fresh water for animals. The homeowner is currently purchasing potable water that is delivered to the property by Koury Transport and held in a cistern. The property is surrounded by the Wet Mountains, with a quick drive into the San Isabel National Forest. This property has so much to offer a new owner who wishes to have enough acreage for animals and enjoy the long legacy of living the country lifestyle in the secluded area of Greenhorn.
