This is a 2.75 acre property with a 1,536 sf ranch style country home with new paint inside and out. New hard surface vinyl laminate flooring & new tile flooring. Updates to both bathrooms. Large, double bay laundry sink. Nice sized living room with moss rock, walk around fireplace and sunken den or office. Fireplace chimney has been capped and needs to be re-sleeved but will also operate a wood stove. Repainted exterior compliments rustic, barn metal roof. Heavy gauge metal roof and trim professionally installed in 2011. Chimney is also wrapped and trimmed. Large, two car carport with matching roof. Over 20" of blown-in cellulose attic insulation. Durango evaporative cooler cleverly installed inside a window on the north side of the home. Propane gas boiler system. Quiet hot water registers in three zones installed in 1998 with a new electronic boiler and side arm installed in 2012. Two wall mounted electric heaters for back-up. Exterior 1,000 gallon underground propane tank which is tied into a second 500 gallon above ground tank. Both tanks are owned by the homeowner. Professionally installed alarm system with door and window trips, motion sensors, fire and smoke sensors as well as a carbon monoxide and gas detector under the crawlspace where any gas leaks would settle. This alarm system also extends out to and includes the detached shop and all three containers with a fire detector in the shop as well. The alarm system has an auto dialer which will contact pre-set phone numbers with your own pre-recorded message. It also has the capability to be professionally monitored by Superior Alarm Company if you wish. Lawn surrounds the home on three sides and is irrigated with an automated timer system from irrigation ditch. A new septic leach field was installed in 2010. The 28' x 40' detached shop and garage was built in 1992 and features 10' stud walls, windows, one walk-in door, one 8' roll-up door and one 16' wide roll-up door. The concrete slab is of 5" to 6" in thickness with three zones of polybutylene tubing in the concrete for the addition of in-floor hydronic heat. Shop is unfinished inside but has 115 and 220 wiring provided with overhead lighting in zones. The shop has water and gray water drains. Next to the shop are two, 20' shipping containers for storage. Behind the shop is a very large, aluminum, 48' high cube container which also sets on concrete footers. Approximately 1 acre of pasture irrigated with underground pipe and gated pipe. This property has water shares. A small wildlife area has been established with grass, cedar trees and ash trees. Front of the home has large pine trees, ornamental trees, shrubs and bushes. The views from this property are 360 degrees with mountain, desert and farmland views. BLM land is only a few miles away with national forest access after that. The town of Olathe is only seven minutes away and abundant shopping is found in Montrose and Delta which are about 20 to 25 minutes down the road. The city of Grand Junction can be reached in one hour. No covenants.
