7582 Road 39 , Mancos, CO 81328(Montezuma County)

One of a kind historic ranch on both sides of the Mancos River with mountain views to the east and west. The ranch encompasses two separate parcels, totaling approximately 100 acres, of beautiful riverfront with majestic cottonwoods surrounded by expansive pastures and hay fields with senior water rights. The comfortable 2229 square foot, 4 bedroom/2 bath ranch house has been remodeled several times including a master bedroom addition and a large south facing passive solar sun porch for great heat gain in the winter. The home was also re-stuccoed in 2013. There is a 2 car detached garage within the main ranch compound and five other outbuildings, four of which are stuccoed with metal roofs to match the home: a machine shed, milking shed, tool shed, and bull shed. The fifth is a large metal Morton Horse Barn with hay storage a tack room and stalls. This was a working ranch, with corrals and a loading chute for cattle, and was also set up for horse breeding. Most recently it has been leased for cattle grazing and hayed. The ranch has been continuously owner occupied and worked, so the land has been extremely well stewarded and is in great condition. Pastures are fenced and cross-fenced for ease of use and rotation. Irrigation water is piped and pressurized with gated pipe to necessary pastures. The water rights are among some of the best in the valley, with both adjudicated and storage rights. The 68 acre parcel includes the river, homes, and all the outbuildings. This parcel has a conservation easement on it. The 32 acre tract is separate, with no easement, and is prime hay and grazing land to enhance the production ability of the ranch. This is a wonderful; set up for an equestrian operation or a rancher with a specialty herd of cattle. The location and expansive views are truly amazing, with huge cottonwoods and mature growth along the river and home to give a real back in time ambiance.
