                This property has thousands of trees and a custom-built house. There are fantastic mountain views, rocky bluffs, yet useable land for grazing. Lower half of acreage is rolling hills, the upper portion is mainly a juniper/pinon forest and open meadows. The property is fenced and partially cross-fenced. A small spring and intermittent stream provides livestock water during summer. Enjoy the private setting for horseback riding, hiking or wildlife viewing,  with resident deer and antelope and seasonal elk visitors. Nearby fishing, boating; 2 hrs to skiing. The property is located only 30 minutes drive from either Pueblo or Florence.

            House details include an original ceiling mural, custom kiva gas fireplace, elevated deck off living room and central air conditioning.  Lower level walkout features 9 ½’ ceiling. In the summertime a spectacular wildflower garden greets you just outside the large sliding glass door.    The house was built with quality materials and designed to have separate guest quarters or a mother-in-law apartment if desired.     

            The house was constructed for energy efficiently: It is orientated for winter solar gain, minimal windows on north side, lower level was constructed with insulated (5” styrofoam, 6” concrete, R=30) forms, upper level features 2X6 construction, blown-in insulation (R=20) Attic is blown-in insulation, R=39. Electric and heating fuel expense averages  $149/month

            The water well is special; Colorado requires domestic wells to be restricted to maximum 15gpm. This one would probably produce 100gpm if opened up fully. The well permit allows water for three houses, domestic animals  (includes horses and other farm animals) and 1 acre garden. Because occasionally snow will bring down a power line, a buried cistern stores 1400 gal water. A gasoline-powered water pump is housed nearby in case of an emergency situation (never used to date).
