Description

Eckert Colorado Country Home, Horse Property for Sale

The buyer looking for a charming country estate will have to take a hard look at this 23-acre hobby farm just east of Eckert, Colorado on the Western Slope. Eckert is a small town on Highway 65 between Delta and Cedaredge, south of the massive Grand Mesa. Grand Junction is about an hour to the northwest. This charming hobby farm has a historic 3-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse built in the early 1900’s but remodeled to current standards. There are several quality outbuildings, including a historic apple packing shed, tack shed, workshop, and detached 2-car garage with workshop area.

Colorado horse property for sale with paddock, irrigated hayfields, and arena

For the horse enthusiast, this property is well set up for the equine lifestyle. Just to the south of the house is an arena and round pen that is ready for training. The property includes approximately 12 acres of hay meadow that is irrigated with gated pipe. Water rights include 11 shares of Forrest Ditch and 1 share of Surface Creek Ditch & Reservoir, as well as an Orchard City domestic water tap. North of the home is a small paddock with a year-round ditch flowing through it that is currently the home of a horse, goat, and sheep.

Eckert, CO has a mild year-round climate that is perfect for gardening and fruit

Just to the east of this property is a large reservoir called “Fruit Growers Reservoir”, and that’s because this area of western Colorado is well known for having an excellent climate for growing apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries, apricots, and wine grapes. In fact, this farm began as an apple orchard in the late 1800’s, and the apple packing shed still has many historic remnants of that past life. This Colorado country home for sale has a variety of fruit trees, including apricots, apples, and pears. The east side of the property has an old historic pear orchard of 20 trees or so that is still in production. On the south side of the house is a nice set of drip-irrigated raised garden beds that are ready for new production.

Colorado historic farmhouse for sale with expansive porches and tall shady trees

Built in 1900, the 1,940-square-foot farmhouse on this property was recently inspected by a well-known home inspector and passed with flying colors. “It’s a quality home,” he said. Although it could use some updating, it’s a very livable home. Several tall shade trees protect the home from the afternoon and evening sun, making it cool and inviting. Expansive porches line three sides of the house. The master suite is on the east side of the home to enjoy the morning sun, while two guest bedrooms share a bath on the west side of the house. The house is on a septic system, which was recently pumped.

Convenient central location for schools, shopping, health care near Delta, CO

This country farm for sale is centrally located, but away from the main highway in a private country setting. Schools are a 10-minute drive to Cedaredge. Abundant recreation is easily accessed by heading north to the Grand Mesa, south to the gold medal waters of the Gunnison Gorge, east to the West Elk mountains, or west to the Uncompahgre Plateau. Medical care is provided by award-winning Delta County Memorial Hospital only 10 miles away, with several board-certified specialists as attending surgeons. Big box shopping and regional airports are available in either Montrose or Grand Junction, each less than an hour away.
