Description
The owners of Ute Ranch are offering the opportunity to purchase one of two building sites on the stunning property. The acquisition would include exclusive access to 2 acres of personal property and shared access rights to the balance of the 330-acre ranch.
This beautiful and bucolic agricultural property is located along the banks of the Cucharas River, 2.5 miles south of the scenic town of La Veta, Colorado. The ranch includes ~125 acres of lush irrigated hay ground, private access to 1.25 miles of the Cucharas River, which boasts excellent fishing for brown and rainbow trout, and a pleasant mix of grasslands, scrub oak, irrigated meadows, and riparian woodlands.
Highlights of the ranch include stunning views of the Spanish Peaks and Culebra range, and beautiful cottonwood-lined hay meadows. The ranch is also graced by the many prominent geologic features that define the Cucharas River Valley, including the dramatic Big Wall volcanic dike, Goemmer Butte, and the Devils Staircase. The family intends to keep their legacy homestead on their own 2-acre restricted lot and share reciprocal access to the remaining balance of the ranch. The working ranch headquarters which includes a handsome 2,200 sq. ft. managers home, as well as a number of barns, work sheds, and functional out-buildings, will be owned in common.
