Sited on 2.43 versatile acres in one of Paonia’s most coveted neighborhoods, this property is ideal for anyone drawn to self-sufficiency, privacy, and rural beauty. This home combines original historic features—like wrap-around porch, intricate woodwork, and old-growth fir floors—with significant modern upgrades: kitchen, bathrooms, electrical service, engineered septic system, and state-of-the-art Weil-McClain on-demand boiler and natural gas baseboard heating. The wrap-around porch is perfect for sunrise coffees or shaded afternoons, while the home’s period character shines through in 9' ceilings, ceiling medallions, and stunning kitchen cabinetry. For preparedness-minded buyers or those seeking dual living setups, the property features a rare domestic water tap that allows for both the primary residence and an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on a single tap—a substantial value and nearly impossible to find in this region. Utilize the outbuilding as a creative studio, guest suite, or convert it into a full ADU. A true highlight for preppers and homesteaders is the underground root cellar—requiring only minor access repair—which offers secure, year-round storage for food and supplies. Several developable springs, fenced gardens, mature fruit trees, usable full-basement, and proximity to an organic peach orchard add to this property’s resilience and charm. Outdoors, find multiple garden zones, abundant established fruit trees, and plenty of land for livestock or hobby farming. The tall-ceiling 900 sq. ft. basement is well-suited for storage, shelter, or a workshop. Enjoy panoramic mountain views from the upper deck and roof-top bedroom access. One mile from Paonia’s artistic, lively downtown, and surrounded by Colorado’s finest wild recreation—Grand Mesa, Black Canyon, West Elks, and McClure Pass. An extraordinary setting for legacy living, self-reliance, or simply peace and inspiration. Don’t miss this rare combination of location, resources, and preparedness potential!
