Property Description
In the Wild Horse Mesa Canyon, only a small handful of homes exist, and all properties here are larger 35+ acres. At this home, you can sit on your 8' x 40' back porch like you never dreamed, overlooking the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the vast valley below as you sip your beverage and just breathe. The windows and doors in this home are set across from one another to allow the cooler summer breezes to waft through the house for that peaceful mountain living feel. This is a one-owner home, utilizing off-grid features such as a solar energy system, septic system and buried cistern. A 12 kW generator will ensure the batteries can still receive a charge when the sun is less accommodating. An RV pad exists at the NE edge of the property with its own driveway. Winter nights can get chilly; in addition to the forced air furnace, the wood-burning stove in the living room can generate enough heat to keep you toasty, and a Rinnai heater in the primary bathroom can be utilized there as well. This home shares the acreage with two other homes as tenants in common, meaning your property tax on the acreage is only 33% of the norm! With this home being on the eastern edge of this large parcel, each home claims 12.5 acres. Though it is rare to actually see them, larger animals in the area include mule deer, elk and black bear. The seller is offering a $5k carpet allowance to have the carpets stretched or replaced.
