About This Home

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own this stunning property! Nestled among a grove of mature trees, this charming 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home offers a peaceful and private retreat. With ample space for expansion, the second living area can easily be converted into an impressive primary suite, transforming the home into a 4-bedroom haven if you desire. Step through the dining room door into a spacious sunroom that bathes the interior in natural light, providing passive solar warmth during winter months. This inviting space is perfect for entertaining or enjoying seamless indoor/outdoor living. The fenced backyard presents breathtaking mountain views, featuring a beautiful backdrop of Mesa Verde. The back pasture, fully fenced and cross-fenced, is ready for horses or other animals, catering perfectly to hobby farm enthusiasts. Sitting on nearly 7 acres of irrigated land, this home comes with 5 shares of MVI water to maintain a lush landscape and create your own serene pond oasis. Imagine growing your own garden surrounded by flourishing fruit trees—apple, apricot, and peach—as well as thriving grapevines. The current owners reaped an impressive 108 bales per cutting from the current pasture with two horses grazing on the pasture. All existing irrigation equipment is included, enhancing this remarkable offer. The extensive outbuildings provide generous space for storage and animal care, featuring barn stalls, paddocks, hay storage, a chicken coop with run, a heated chick brooder room, a tack room, an insulated tool room, a carport, a garden shed, and much more! You’ll also have plenty of parking for trailers or RVs. With the property across the road protected by a conservation easement, your beautiful views of open space will remain untouched. Conveniently located just minutes from town amenities yet offering the tranquility of rural living down a quiet road, schedule your showing today and take the first step toward your dream home!
