Great little ranch just outside of Hotchkiss
Hotchkiss, Delta County, Colorado
Great little ranch just outside of Hotchkiss on the back road to Paonia! Two small homes, productive hay fields, and a great horse set-up. The property is 28 acres with approximately 23 acres of lush irrigated hay fields/pastures with late-running Short Ditch Company water to keep it green & productive even into the late season. The fields are mostly Orchard Grass. There is a gated pipe irrigation system to make your water more efficient and to keep the job of irrigating minimal and easy. Large 52' x 80' hay barn with an equipment storage area. The horse barn has6 enclosed stalls, all with electricity for tank heaters, and a tack stall. There is also a covered horse barn with 10 welded pipe stalls with an alley down the middle, which also has electricity and water to it. Down below on a very private lower level portion of the property there is a roping/riding arena, and there is electricity run to the northeast corner of the arena. This is a great horse set-up that is currently being used as a horse training operation. The main house is a very nice 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom home with an open kitchen/dining/living room, and a separate laundry room, and is in move-in condition. It was built in 2018 and is approximately 864 square feet. There are vaulted tongue & groove ceilings, a natural gas space heater, and a mini-split unit for both heating and cooling as well. If you need more space, the home could be easily added onto, or live in it while you build your dream home here. The small guest house is a portable building that was finished into a 1 bedroom/1 bath studio and is perfect for guests to be close by, but have their own space. The lovely yard has nice lawn areas with lots of shade trees and shrubs and is irrigated with waste water off the fields with an irrigation pump. There is also a nice storage shed and there is year-round stock water that flows through the lower portion of the property. Excellent views of the West Elk Mountains! This is a great location out in the country, yet only 2 minutes to Town, and the improvements sit way back off the County Road for privacy.
