Experience the epitome of Colorado ranching at its finest! This extraordinary property spans nearly 1,500 acres of pristine land, boasting senior water rights and offering a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the untamed spirit of the wild west. This comprehensive package includes expansive acreage, a charming ranch home, approximately 150 head of commercial cattle, and an impressive array of heavy-duty ranch equipment. Nestled in the open San Luis Valley and surrounded by the majestic Sangre De Cristo Mountains, the ranch features both partial pivot and flood irrigation systems. The early 1900s ranch home, a quaint three-bedroom abode, has been meticulously remodeled to blend historic charm with modern comforts. No ranch is complete without top-notch livestock accommodations, and this property does not disappoint. It features a full-size outdoor riding arena, cattle pens, a loading chute, and solar stock wells for the ultimate outdoor experience. Additionally, there is a newly constructed barn/stable/arena/storage building, built in 2019, spanning nearly 15,000 square feet. This includes ample equipment storage, a tack room, indoor horse stalls, and a full indoor riding arena. Enjoy not only your own livestock but also the wildlife that frequently roams in and out, offering hunting opportunities. Elk are prevalent during the winter months, coming to feed in the meadows. Water rights for this property are exceptional, encompassing both senior water rights and irrigation wells that ensure a stable ranching lifestyle with potential income opportunities. This is more than just a ranch; it's a legacy waiting to be embraced.

That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
