With its...Colorado Horse & Hay Property with Solar Power, Polo Field, Strong Water Rights & Domestic Well Located just ten minutes from downtown Rifle, this 14.28-acre irrigated horse and hay property offers the perfect combination of productive land, self-sufficiency, and small-town convenience. Sitting at a comfortable 5,400 feet in elevation, the property features strong irrigation, clean domestic water, and high-efficiency solar power—all surrounded by scenic mountain views and quiet neighbors. With its deep, rock-free soil and reliable irrigation from April through October, this property would be ideal for crops that require consistent moisture such as alfalfa, grass hay, sweet corn, hemp, hops, orchard fruits, or even vineyard development—all commonly grown throughout Western Colorado’s fertile valleys. Historically used as an equestrian estate, the property includes a regulation-size polo field (300 x 160 yards), horse arena, loafing sheds, multiple stalls, and hay storage. The ground is fully fenced, level, and rock-free—perfect for hay production, livestock, or future crops. Irrigation water is supplied by 1.66 shares of the Grand River Ditch Company (April through October), and the domestic well produces a strong 14 gallons per minute of clean, drinkable water. An efficient solar system powers approximately 80% of the property, selling excess energy back to the grid. The 4-bedroom, 3-bath home (built in 1992) has been updated with new paint, carpet, lighting, and a new leach field. Outdoor living spaces include a covered back deck, front porch, and balcony off the attached 900-square-foot ADU with a two-car garage. The grounds feature a mature Aspen grove, fruit-bearing apple, pear, and plum trees, and nearly 1,000 linear feet of wild asparagus that flourishes each spring. Set less than 10 minutes from Rifle, the property offers quick access to groceries, schools, medical care, and local restaurants while retaining the peace and privacy of rural life. The surrounding region is known for year-round recreation, with nearby Rifle Gap and Rifle Falls State Parks, Powderhorn Mountain Resort, the Grand Mesa, and the Flat Tops Wilderness all within an hour’s drive—offering fishing, skiing, hiking, and horseback riding. Aspen is approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes away, providing world-class skiing, dining, and cultural events, yet this property enjoys the tranquility and open space of Colorado’s Western Slope. Travel is convenient with the Garfield County Regional Airport just 12 minutes away, Eagle County Regional Airport about 1 hour 20 minutes, and Grand Junction Regional Airport approximately 1 hour 10 minutes. 449 County Road 223 represents a rare opportunity to own a productive, well-watered, and energy-efficient horse property in one of Western Colorado’s most scenic and accessible valleys.
