Room to Grow. Water to Work With. A Little Piece of Colorado to Call Your Own.
For the right buyer, this isn't just a property - it's a starting point. Nestled in the heart of rural southeast Colorado, this small acreage offering comes with something increasingly rare and genuinely valuable: 7 shares of Ft. Lyon Canal Company water rights and approximately 1 acre already tilled and ready to plant this season.
The land is primed and waiting. Whether you're envisioning rows of vegetables, a hay crop, a small orchard, or pasture for goats, chickens, or horses, the groundwork - literally - is already done.
The main farmhouse offers 1 bedroom and 1 bath, full of the bones and character that made these old Colorado homesteads built to last. Affordably priced with room in the budget to restore and personalize, this is your chance to bring a classic farmhouse back to its prime on your own terms and timeline.
A separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath bunkhouse adds tremendous flexibility - think guest quarters, rental income potential, a hired hand's space, or a comfortable retreat for visiting family. The wood stove inside makes it cozy and functional even in the colder months, giving it genuine year-round livability.
The outbuildings need some love, but that's already reflected in the price - and for the handy buyer or serious homesteader, they represent opportunity, not obstacle.
This property suits a wide range of visions:
Southeast Colorado living means wide open skies, tight-knit communities, and a pace of life that reminds you what matters. If you've been looking for affordable acreage with real agricultural potential, this one deserves a serious look.
Water rights, tilled acreage, dual dwellings - priced to move and ready for your vision.
