Description

Stick built home on nearly 40 acres with irrigation, pond and no covenants. This property has a ton of potential with all of the water rights and year around pond plus big La Plata Mountain views. The 2BR, 1 BA home has been partially remodeled and is very livable right now, with a little more work it has the potential to be a great home. Propane for the home is free as long as the gas well in the SW corner of the property is producing. Conveniently located on highway 172, but set back from the highway...Stick built home on nearly 40 acres with irrigation, pond and no covenants. This property has a ton of potential with all of the water rights and year around pond plus big La Plata Mountain views. The 2BR, 1 BA home has been partially remodeled and is very livable right now, with a little more work it has the potential to be a great home. Propane for the home is free as long as the gas well in the SW corner of the property is producing. Conveniently located on highway 172, but set back from the highway for significantly less highway noise. The acreage has been in hay production in past years but was not hayed in 2024 or 2025. There is a large garage to park cars, toys or equipment as well as a work shop.
