This property was a dairy farm back in the late 1800s and early 1900s; however, for the past forty (40) years, it has become known for its quality horse hay. This property is located on the valley floor of the Wet Mountain Valley just four miles South of Westcliffe, Colorado. This valley runs North and South along the East side of the Sangre de Cristo Mountain range.
The property is approximately 2 miles from the mountain range which has mountain peaks at 14,000+ feet with 360° views. The grass produces very good hi-protein horse hay and is well recognized throughout Colorado. The property has approximately 300 acres of hay fields and can produce up to 25,000 bales per year and can be easily accessible by tractor trailer.
The recreation in this area is almost unlimited with ski resorts and large cities both within an hours drive. The Sangre de Cristo Mountain area is known for hunting, fishing, hiking, horseback riding and ATV trails.
The property includes an 1800 square foot house built in early 1980s with 2-car detached garage, older original bunkhouse with cellar, old original two-story stone barn, two hay barns, two tractor barns, and other out buildings. It also has two creeks that pass through the property and a small spring-fed pond.
This area is very desirable for retirement or you can work at your own pace or either lease the hay fields to the area hay producers for profit.
