With irrigated hay ground, a producing apple orchard, and the year-round flow of Bell Creek winding through the property, this is a rare combination of productivity and natural beauty just minutes from Paonia or Hotchkiss. The 4-bedroom, 2-bath home is well-positioned to take in expansive views of the towering Lamborn and Lands End Peaks to the east and the Bell Creek valley to the south. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs and 2 down with a walk-out basement that adds both space and flexibility. An attached two-car garage provides convenience. A nice sitting room is well-positioned to enjoy the sunshine or sit by the fireplace. Outside, the land is the true highlight. Irrigation water supports hay fields, pasture, and the established apple orchard, giving the property both agricultural value and a classic North Fork aesthetic. Bell Creek meanders through the acreage, attracting wildlife and enhancing the property’s usability and charm. There are around 12 acres that are irrigated by pipe and hose sprinklers. Bring your horses! This property has a horse barn with a loft, hay storage, a tack room, and an open run for the horses to get shelter from the elements. With some irrigated pasture down by the creek, you have options for places to keep the horse while you grow some hay. Life in the North Fork Valley is unlike anywhere else in Colorado. Known for its strong agricultural roots, vibrant arts community, and laid-back pace, the valley offers an authentic rural lifestyle without sacrificing culture or connection. From local wineries and farm-to-table dining to endless outdoor recreation, hunting, fishing, hiking, and cross-country skiing nearby. Whether you’re looking to run a small agricultural operation, keep horses, or simply enjoy the peace and productivity of Western Colorado, Bell Creek Homestead delivers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the North Fork Valley.
