About This Home

As of October 2024

Prepare to be WOW'ed! 128 +/- acres of stunning canyon country bordering Canyon of the Ancients National Monument. This property has maximum visual privacy and features a large ~13 acre pasture, a 500 sq. ft. shop, and a 2,574 sq. ft. 2-bedroom home situated on the canyon rim. The inspiring views are beyond spectacular with sights of the Blue Mountains in Utah, the San Juans, the La Platas, Mesa Verde and the Sleeping Ute. The surrounding landscape provides a lifetime of exploring and hiking. The house still in need of completion, is solid with tons of potential! The upstairs area features aspen paneling, and has a large bedroom area with windows overlooking the canyon, a walk-in closet, extra storage space, a sitting room and large bathroom with sitting tub. The downstairs has a large living room also with windows overlooking the canyon, kitchen with two islands with lots of cabinets, a sun room/greenhouse, large office space, a wood stove and two furnaces to keep you cozy in the winter. When summer heats up, there are two large evaporative coolers to keep you chill. Just 20 minutes from downtown Cortez and a short drive from all that southwest Colorado has to offer. The seller has enjoyed many years of ownership and relished the peaceful solitude that this property provides – this one is a MUST SEE in person!
