PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A remarkable horse property just one mile from the vibrant town of Paonia, this exceptional 3.44-acre property offers the rare combination of sweeping mountain and valley views, peaceful country living, and the convenience of town water and sewer. Set in a quiet and spacious setting on the edge of town, the property captures the natural beauty of Colorado’s North Fork Valley while remaining just minutes from local shops, restaurants, wineries, and the renowned Paonia farmers market. From sunrise over the valley to glowing sunsets across the surrounding mesas and peaks, the views from this property are truly remarkable. Large windows throughout the home bring the landscape indoors, filling the living spaces with natural light and creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere in every season. Evenings offer the calm and quiet of country living, with expansive skies and brilliant stars overhead. The thoughtfully designed 3,045 sq ft home showcases quality craftsmanship throughout, including beautiful woodwork, oak flooring, custom cabinetry, tile detailing, and upgraded hardware and fixtures. The living room centers around a gas fireplace with a stone hearth, creating a cozy gathering space during the cooler months. The main-level primary suite offers comfort and privacy with a walk-in closet and a beautifully remodeled bathroom featuring a decorative tile shower and claw-foot tub. A finished basement adds valuable flexible space that can serve as a guest area, recreation room, home gym, or office. Built with durability in mind, the home features metal-frame construction with 5/8-inch commercial fire-code sheetrock, offering strength, safety, and long-term reliability rarely found in residential homes. Equestrians and hobby ranchers/farmers will appreciate the property’s turnkey horse and agricultural setup. The fully fenced acreage includes irrigated pasture with established hay production and three shares of Minnesota Ditch & Canal water. Improvements include a barn with corrals and stall space, tack area, loafing shed, dog pen, and a large 60-foot metal storage building ideal for equipment, trailers, or workshop space. A holding pond and in-ground sprinkler system support efficient irrigation. Five mature fruit trees - three apple, one apricot, and one peach - add seasonal charm and harvest. Additional improvements include an enclosed, insulated, and heated garage with a new metal roof and attached storage. A recently constructed and charming cabin with 300 sq ft that has custom cabinetry and can be used as a detached office or artist studio ~ provides an ideal space for remote work, creative pursuits, or a private space to retreat. With expansive views, irrigated acreage, equestrian infrastructure, and close proximity to Paonia’s thriving arts, farming, and outdoor recreation community, this property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of North Fork Valley living.
