Lake Home For Sale
C: , greg, : The +/- 85 meticulous acres of Elk Crossing Ranch, with 4400 sq. ft., 4 bedroom, 5 bath custom home located +/- 25 minutes south of Pagosa Springs is what Southwest Colorado recreational living is all about! With views of the South San Juans and Continental Divide on one side, Valle Seco Mountains on the other, all located in a ranch community that was set up for hunters, especially elk hunting. There's a private, deeded hiking/horseback/hunting corridor into the San Juan National Forest adjacent to the property that allows only members access into that quadrant of the forest! Talk about your private back yard! Hay, Livestock and Income! Income producing (+/-1100 bales of hay a year), cross fenced with cattle/horse grazing providing a strong history, +/-36 shares of irrigation, plus a spring in the ranch interior that irrigates the majority of the holding and feeds a pond.The Home Barn Encompassing 4439 sq. ft., the custom 4 bedroom, 5 bath home, at today's minimum cost of $600 per square feet, would take over $2.6M just to replace. The cathedral ceiling immediately takes hold of you as you enter the incredible, passively well-lit home and the massive post beam construction and open floor plan takes you into the large gourmet island kitchen, with a large walk-in pantry. Taking advantage of the incredible light and +/-320 days of sunshine the valley provides, an incredible new state-of-the-art solar system was added a year ago, providing up to 90% of summer power and 40% of winter power, with average electric bills in the $20 a month range! Breakfast nooks and covered decks abound with almost 360-degrees of covered porches around the home, complimenting one's morning coffee and approximately 50% of Southwest Colorado homeowners take their evening meals on the deck. Large bedrooms and an incredible entertainment room and downstairs bar add to Elk Crossing's tremendous entertainment options. The house was newly painted a year ago and decks stained, with a new gravel driveway to the barn and new double garage doors just added servicing the 3.5 car attached garage. The well-constructed barn enjoys power and water, which makes it ideal for hay storage, side-by-sides, tractors or horse stalls. There is also a loafing shed for livestock as well. Starlink internet service has worked wonderfully for the current previous owners of Elk Crossing Ranch. LandscapingThe home grounds are smothered in mature aspens, Douglas fir, blue spruce, pinion ponderosas, allowing for an incredible private and secluded viewing plateau and creating a wildlife sanctuary that attracts the mule deer and elk, especially comforting for cover, with viewing corridors of the mountains, hayfields and wildlife. Recreation. The owners have historically harvested their elk and deer annually from the porch, but those wishing a more challenging spot stalk experience can walk out the gate through an approximately 300-yard private, deeded corridor straight in to the San Juan National Forest...an access point not open to the public. The 1.8M acres of The San Juan National Forest surrounds the entire community, with over 65 hiking trails and 3 fly fishing rivers. The elk herd is so abundant and the ranch is not in a wolf release area. The State Of Colorado Parks Wildlife Department still grants this county over-the-counter elk tags on public and private land.Property Details
