Public Remarks: Price reduced! Motivated Seller "One of a kind" This 12+ acre homestead comes with exclusive water rights from a fresh water spring from two separate spring feeds (natural underground stream source) plus the snow melt. Water is gold in Colorado. Adobe home is off grid, the water lines are plumbed to the house from a 1600 gallon cistern, home needs some TLC, property to be sold in "AS IS" condition. Perfect handyman project! If you desire a more serene life this property is a must see! Great opportunity to create a retreat/mini farm in the San Luis Valley. SLV valley paradise located in southern Colorado. The upper 7 acres is partially wooded with an extension of the stream running above the main homestead. Mature trees with a campground area and a patio platform, abundant trails through the property for adventurous mountain strolls. There are really not enough words to describe this odyssey experience. Call for a private tour.
