Fruitland Mesa – Sold

4o acre Farm near Crawford.

Custom Ranch style home skillfully built in 2014 to State of Colorado codes. The home features an open concept design with a “cooks’ kitchen”. Fifty square feet of countertops with two large pass through pantries and an abundance of custom rough sawn knotty alder cabinets and quality features. The entire house is handicap accessible, with 36” doorways and hallways, elevated toilets, and roll-in master shower. All flooring is hard surface, with porcelain wood grain tiles throughout most of the home with 3 zoned radiant in-floor heating.

There are many unique features and details in this home, including the whiskey barrel basin and large soaking tub in guest bath. In the master bath you will find varying height, double basins created from the cross cut of a cottonwood tree with copper sinks and large roll in shower. The master bedroom features double walk-in closet with four-foot-wide shelf to store those bigger items. There is also a twelve by twelve foot “cellar” room accessed from the garage which is great to store temperature sensitive items and canned goods; would make a great wine cellar. The 40 acres are fenced and cross fenced, with 12 acres irrigated grass pasture and remainder in pinion, juniper, sage and wild grasses.

The property has a large barn with 6 Priefert stalls, two chicken yards with coops, four outbuildings, a lean-to and RV parking area with full hookups. There are also two fenced in garden areas, ready for planting. The property adjoins BLM so hiking and horse adventures can be had from your back door. Wildlife is abundant including a large resident elk herd, mule deer and turkey. The Black Canyon of the Gunnison’s North Rim is nearby. The views are simply outstanding. From the front porch and out of all the front windows you can see the Grand Mesa (largest mesa in the world) in its entirety, the West Elks and the Raggeds Wilderness. Also, the full North Fork Valley lays below you. The night sky is alive with stars with no light pollution.

This would make a wonderful property for anyone desiring to escape the hustle bustle of city life. Grow your own food, raise your own animals and be as self-sufficient as you want to be.
