4,800+ SF custom home at the base of the Sangres with vaulted ceilings, stucco fireplace, Alder kitchen, and radiant in-floor heat. Includes heated SwimEx pool, greenhouse, and 2-car garage. Irrigated meadow with water rights and North Taylor Creek running through. Ideal for horses or cattle, with privacy, views, and true Colorado mountain living. This is the kind of ground folks look for but don't often find. Sitting on the west side of the Wet Mountain Valley, the land opens up into a green, irrigated meadow with the Sangre de Cristo Mountains rising right behind it. North Taylor Creek runs through the property, backed by water rights totaling 2.4 CFS, with three rights from the Landendorfer Ditch (Case 2012CW90). That water keeps the grass coming in thick, making it well-suited for horses or a few head of cattle. It's a rare mix-usable, productive land with real water and a setting that's hard to beat. Built like a place meant to last, this 4,800+ square foot home stands solid at the base of the Sangres, with a warm, western feel the minute you walk in. The great room opens up with vaulted ceilings, a big stucco fireplace, and a full wall of built-ins, all tied together with stained concrete floors that are as tough as they are good-looking. The kitchen keeps things classic with Alder cabinets and black granite tops. The main bedroom sits on the main level with its own access to the deck, plus a roomy bath with double sinks, soaking tub, and separate shower. You'll also find another bedroom, office, full bath, and laundry all on the main floor. Downstairs is set up for relaxing or entertaining with a rec room, another bedroom, 3/4 bath, a heated SwimEx pool, and even an attached greenhouse. The 2-car garage is 852 square feet of space. The home is heated right with both a propane furnace and a Froling Turbo 3000 wood boiler feeding an 820-gallon storage system for in-floor heat, hot water, and even the pool. Efficient, practical, and built with intention-this place carries a five-star energy rating. The property is connected to the electrical grid but is thoughtfully supported by a solar system that handles the home's daily power needs. For additional peace of mind, a whole-house propane generator provides backup power when needed, which the owners have never needed to use, giving this home a practical blend of independence and reliability. Life out here is meant to be lived outside. Step off the porch and you've got room to roam-whether that's riding, hiking, or just taking in the quiet. The creek brings a steady, peaceful sound, and the mountains call for exploring. Wildlife moves through the valley, the skies stay dark at night, and there's no shortage of fresh air. When you're not out on the land, you've got your own heated pool and greenhouse to enjoy year-round. This is the kind of place where days slow down and evenings stretch out. If you've been looking for a small working setup, this one checks the boxes. The irrigated meadow produces solid grass, supported by water rights-something that's getting harder to come by. There's a barn and tractor garage already in place, so you've got what you need to run horses or keep a small cattle operation going. Whether you want to work the land or just keep it open and green, this property gives you the option.
