New to the market is this country home situated just 15 minutes northwest of Montrose
in a pastoral setting of homes with acreage. Built in 2019, the home is best described as
a “modern farmhouse”, with 3 bedrooms, office, craft room, country kitchen, and wide
verandas on the south and east side of the house. There’s plenty of room for vehicles
and projects, with a 3-car attached garage and a 3-bay detached workshop, not to
mention a storage shed and carport. The home offers many custom details, such as in-
floor radiant heat; on-demand hot water; central A/C; quartz kitchen countertops; farm
sink; Brazilian hardwood floors; and main floor master suite.
If you like to grow things, this is a great place to be. Montrose is known for its mild
climate and long growing season, and the soil on this country estate is excellent. The
parcel has 8.8 dedicated shares of Uncompahgre Valley Water Users Association water
rights, and the seller has leased an additional 2.5 shares for the 2024 growing season,
giving it an abundance of water, which is delivered by gated pipe. The spacious lawn
has an underground sprinkler system and the grass is thick and lush. Additionally, there
are 11 young fruit trees on the property that will provide bountiful cherries, apples, and
peaches in future years.
This property is not currently fenced for horses, but it could easily be converted into a
horse property with fencing and outbuildings.
Montrose is known as one of the most desirable locations in Western Colorado. With its
mild climate, strong business environment and close proximity to Telluride, it’s a favorite

are easy. Montrose has many good restaurants, coffee shops, and downtown stores, as
well as big box stores such as Home Depot and WalMart.
For the active recreation enthusiast, Montrose offers a wide variety of options, including
skiing in Telluride; snowmobiling on the Uncompahgre Plateau; excellent big game
