The 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch-style home has 1,380 sq ft on the main level with a 1,320 sq ft livable basement. There is an attached 1-car garage and a covered patio at the back of the home, perfect for grilling or outdoor relaxation.

There is also a large barn that was built in the 1930s using blocks from the Walsenburg Coal Mine. Existing pens, including panels and gates, surround the barn and can be used by a new owner to improve upon the corrals. The property is partially fenced, with the grassland consisting mainly of brome grass. On the north side of the home, there is a connected well that can also provide fresh water for animals. The homeowner is currently purchasing potable water that is delivered to the property by Grant Koury Transport and held in a cistern. The property is surrounded by the Wet Mountains, with a quick drive into the San Isabel National Forest. Highway 181 was previously the Taos Spur of the Santa Fe Trail, and the Greenhorn area was home to a flourishing community of Italian Immigrants, Trappers, and Native Americans occupying Southern Colorado during the late 1800s into the turn of the century. This property has so much to offer a new owner who wishes to have enough acreage for animals and enjoy the long legacy of living the country lifestyle in the secluded area of Greenhorn.
