41333 D Rd, Crawford, CO 81415

Colorado cattle ranch and horse ranch with custom home on 142 acres. Located just 1 mile from the town of Crawford, this ranch offers beautiful seclusion and privacy in a stunning setting, yet easy year-round access and close to town. The terrain is a pleasing mix of flat open meadows and small coves of cottonwoods and Gambel oak, at an elevation of 6,640 feet for cool nights and sunny days. The ranch has about 60 acres of irrigated hayfields and the balance is pasture. Irrigation water is provided by the Daisy Ditch, and there is good late-season water with 75 acre feet of Smith Fork Project water. Built in 2008, the custom home is solid and well built with a total of 4,338 square feet. The main body of the house has three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, a spacious living room, laundry and mud room, two offices with great views, and a very spacious master suite with large walk-in closets, double vanity, and 5-piece bath with jetted tub. Above the attached 3-car garage is a caretaker's apartment with 2 bedrooms, a spacious living room, kitchenette, and full bath. Ranch improvements include a 24x24 shop building and a 24x32 horse shelter with 4 paddocks. The property has frost-free waterers across several paddocks and pastures, and overall very good fencing. This property is a game haven, with wild turkey and mule deer on it year-round, and elk in the winter. A spring-fed pond keeps the frogs and birds happy. The property lends itself well into subdividing into four parcels, as power, water, and high-speed internet lines have been installed along the main access road. It would be a fairly simple matter to divide off two 35-acre parcels and keep the main house and 70 acres. Views from this property are outstanding, with beautiful vistas of Needle Rock and the West Elks. All in all, this is a special property!
