What's special

Spring-fed pondsBright sunroomBeautiful custom homeDramatic entranceLarge sunny windowsComfortable country kitchen

Presenting one of Delta County’s finest properties. Exceptionally quiet and private location yet close to town. Beautiful custom home on 37 acres overlooking the North Fork Valley. Surrounded by trees and water this is a nature lover's oasis. Lush hillsides with springs, trails, grasses, and a wide variety of trees leading down to the spring-fed ponds. A wonderful home for wildlife. Hayfields on both sides of the long and level driveway make for a dramatic entrance. The farmstead is neat and orderly with lawns, flower beds, gravel parking and mature trees. The shop buildings and guest house are just the right distances from the main house. The house with its unique angles and roof lines is very appealing as are the large, sunny windows. The living room, master bedroom and kitchen all have vaulted tongue and groove ceilings. There are enticing  patios and sitting areas around the exterior. The home is 3,000sf with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Comfortable country kitchen, bright sunroom and large office/family room. Attached oversized, two-car garage is finished and with cabinetry, long countertop and a stainless steel sink. The shop/mechanical building has spacious, covered equipment bays. Inside are heated storage areas and workshop space with a stainless sink. The 826sf guest apartment above has a kitchen area, full bath, walk-in closet, deck and private entrance. The large 40x60 metal shop building is insulated and heated. Immaculate condition with painted concrete floor, 14ft bay door, skylights and a 3/4 bath. Also includes an  air compressor, hoist, shelves, workbenches and a secure concrete vault with Ft Knox door. Water rights include 3 decreed ponds, 3 decreed springs and 548 shares of Fire Mountain Canal. Irrigation water is piped directly to the upper fields and to a pump for the yard sprinkler systems. A separate 6-inch pipe feeds several valve stations down to the lower pastures. A well provides domestic water for all three buildings which is filtered through a custom reverse osmosis treatment system. The property is a convenient 6-minute drive down to Hotchkiss, and 15 minutes to Paonia in the heart of the scenic North Fork Valley and West Elk Mountains.
