Sara Staber, Keller Williams Realty Southwest Associates, LLC, C: 970-759-5033, , : Welcome to Gray Clay Ranch! Own a piece of Mancos history, where the West still lives. Weber Canyon offers a tranquil verdant respite within a stunning rugged landscape, watered by Weber Creek. Remote in feel … yet only 9 miles from town. This 80+- acre property, originally part of the Sydney Hadden farmstead, is composed of two 40+- acre parcels and borders the BLM lands on both sides of the valley to the east and west. The charming 1830+- square foot custom two-bedroom / two bath log cabin (on tract 8), was built in the 1980’s, and has been extensively updated while remaining true to its historic character. While maintaining traditional details and western ambiance, it is now well appointed with modern amenities, due to the solar PV and other systems, The property also has several rustic cabins, plus some of the original settlers’ cabins and structures. The ground floor of the main cabin offers a vaulted great room, surrounded by windows, with a comfortable living area and a large dining table. There is also is a cozy den, a tiled ¾ bath and of course the ‘heart of the home’ … a large updated kitchen with modern conveniences yet still vintage. The two bedrooms are on the second level with another bathroom, complete with clawfoot tub and good closets! The warm character of the home is enhanced by hand-peeled logs and hardwood plank floors throughout. A covered front porch accents the authentic feel and is a perfect spot to relax and ‘listen to the quiet’ or watch raptors soar. Both the cabin and pond are surrounded by deer fence to protect plantings and ornamental trees. The property is entirely off-grid and serviced by its own PV system and high speed Starlink satellite internet. All the infrastructure is on Tract 8, where the log home is located. A new solar system was installed in 2023; panels, lithium batteries and inverter. The country kitchen was also renovated a year ago with wooden cabinets, stone countertops, stainless cook’s sink, new refrigerator, and commercial chefs stove, plus the original antique Holbrook Merrick wood burning cast-iron cook stove. This tract also has its own domestic water well, septic system and irrigation from the ¾ acre pond coming from Weber creek as it runs through the property. The naturalized landscape is covered by rabbitbrush and sage. Other features across the two lots are a recently built pole barn/garage with shop, two older storage sheds and three early settler cabins. On tract 9 there are six rustic 12x12 wooden studio cabins, a larger 12x24 wood cabin with full porch, and a bath/wash house with a cistern above it on the hill that when filled provides gravity fed water. These are not considered living quarters. There is no well, septic, power or running water on this parcel.~ NOTE: Road 41 is a county road, however it is NOT regularly maintained or plowed to Stagecoach Acres. It is only suitable for 4WD high-clearance vehicles and not recommended when wet. It may be usable on a year-round basis depending on weather and road conditions. This is a very special property and a unique opportunity to own a piece of Weber canyon and its rich history. The Hadden ranch, settled by one of the founding families of Webber and Mancos, was long held by the family until it became the staging area for the Bartel Stagecoach which brought visitors down canyon to experience a bit of 19th century life. These are two of only 9 tracts in Stagecoach Acres, which is at the dead-end of the canyon, and privately situated between BLM, Mesa Verde, Ute Mountain Reservation and National Forest lands, and dedicated to preserve the pristine environment of lower Weber Canyon. Residents also enjoy an exclusive shared trail down canyon to the Mancos River.
