Property Description

Secluded Pine Retreat Near Mancos, Colorado-ready for you to finish and make it your own!!! Nestled beneath a canopy of mature ponderosa pines just north of Mancos, this unique offering spans three agriculturally taxed parcels totaling approximately 71.27 acres. The property provides both privacy and potential suited to a mountain escape, off-grid homestead, or an additional future build site. The front parcel, located on Road 36.5 offers 36+ acres of forestland with existing electric service at the site, ideal for temporary living or initial site use. On the back parcel at 36794 Road T.7, the approximately 35-acre lot includes substantial infrastructure improvements. An impressive steel building with a 73' × 50' footprint and 18' wall height is waiting for you to finish it and make it your own. This dual-purpose structure encompasses a 50' × 43' heated shop area on a 6 inch concrete slab with in-floor heat, and a living space of 50' × 30' over a 4 foot deep crawl space. With two insulated 12' × 14' garage doors on electric operators, and 6 inch R-19 insulation, the building is dried-in and partially framed inside for a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath layout totaling approximately 2,726 square feet of living area. And, if you don't love this layout...the work is still early enough in the process that you can create your own! A pond-fed submersible pump has been trenched to the crawl space, paired with a 1,100-gallon cistern and an 86-gallon pressure tank housed in a small pump house, as well as an engineered septic. Outside the home is a large seasonal pond area that is a nice addition to the mountain landscape. The combined acreage, agricultural tax status on a large amount of the property, and all the perks/utilities that are already in place make this offering attractive for both immediate use and future expansion. The forested setting provides tranquil privacy. There is a Road Users Agreement to maintain the main road with a cost of $300 per year that covers Summer maintenance. However, it has been privately maintained in the winter to allow access. These properties have 2 deed restrictions: No splitting below 35 acres and No commercial zoning allowed. For residents and visitors alike, close proximity to Mancos, Dolores and Cortez, this property puts Mesa Verde, public lands, fishing, hiking, biking and hunting within easy reach. Whether you envision making this your primary home, an RV retreat, or a basecamp for endless outdoor adventure, this property delivers both infrastructure and landscape in one complete package.
