The property is ready for some small scale farming or create your own working mini ranch. There is also a greenhouse and chicken coup onsite with several seasonal ponds that can be easily expanded and almost 10,000 gallons of water storage onsite. Gravity irrigated field for easily growing various crops. State of the art solar power systems that give you plenty of power with lithium ion LiFePO4 batteries for long-term reliability. Plenty of native wild cherry trees, rose hips and wildflowers for teas in the evening. Property previously approved for hemp commodity production for income generation. The soil has been untouched from chemicals and has been tested. The soil is black and rich, just add water and your plants will have everything they need. Tempest AI weather station for accurate forecasting. 4k video surveillance system. 2,500/gal in propane capacity. 150/gal fuel tank capacity. The 35 acre zoned agricultural tract is about half aspen forest. Much of the rest is tilled and fenced. It is only accessible through a series of locked gates at almost 9000 ft. near the top of a mountain possibly making it one of the safest and secure properties you will ever find. And yet the town of Montrose is only a short drive down the mountain. This is an area of Western Colorado which is ranked five stars by famed relocation expert Joel Skousen. The property has 2 separate independent living environments, a 2 bedroom/1 bath home plus loft with a 1421sqft gross living area. The fully equipped Yurt is 800 sq. ft. Both homes have their own cisterns, septic, and solar systems with newer wood burning stoves and high altitude Rihanna custom propane heaters used at the ski resorts. There are several lifetimes of clean burning Aspen deadfall available for the stoves. Grid power is nearby and can be hooked up at your option after purchase. The property is a recreational winter sports and hunting wonderland. Many types of wildlife are plentiful with Rocky Mountain Elk, Mule Deer, Black Bear (actually most are brown in color) and the occasional Mountain Lion. Hunt Score website (GMU65) shows the Elk migration pattern line passing directly over the roof of the house. So your front porch is also your deer stand. The wild life is very friendly and its not uncommon to see deer taking a nap right next to your porch. Humming birds and wild rabbits love to visit and interact with you. A pristine mountain lake loaded with trout is just a short drive away. During the spring and summer there is an explosion of wildflowers across the property. This place is special, and you will love it. The climate is beautiful with no air conditioning needed which is great for your crops as the bug pressure is not a concern. Estimated property taxes for 2022 are 1,019.00 . Homeowners insurance premium is 1,600.00 annually at present. Star link Broadband internet $100/mo. NO HOA.
