Property Description
This secluded 2.61 acre hacienda homestead backs to The Nature Conservancy tract which protects the land for migrating birds and waterfowl. In March the sandhill cranes make a stop here, and the area is extremely peaceful. The homestead property features gardens, an outdoor dome area attached to a smaller kiva area that can be completed to your choice of uses. The large dome area also has an outdoor amphitheatre that would be great for parties, lectures, music or an outdoor school. This corner lot has the potential to be a gathering place for friends and family and a small self-sufficient homestead. Completely off-grid, on well, septic, and a solar system. The home is a 1 bedroom, 1 bath, but could be expanded to serve a larger family. Elk and antelope roam this area in addition to the birds, foxes, and rabbits. Cottonwood Creek and the swimming hole are nearby. The home has an upstairs bedroom with viewing deck, with a bird's-eye view of the Great Sand Dunes. This hacienda-style home with stained glass windows, artsy chandeliers, and porches can be the start of a bigger project in this same style. New hot water heater and separate building for solar equipment. Several walled-in areas for privacy already in place. The garden area features a large area of hops, which the seller sold to the former local brewery. Snowplowing and road maintenance to the driveway, and the town of Crestone is 15 minutes from the homestead. It's time to escape city living and live a wholesome, healthy outdoor life in this magical area with numerous spiritual retreats, hot springs, and nature walks nearby. Live the dream...
