103+ ACRES BORDERING BLM WITH PANORAMIC WESTERN COLORADO VIEWS! Privately situated near the end of a quiet road on Fruitland Mesa, this exceptional 103.534± acre property offers direct access to adjoining public land, abundant wildlife, remarkable seclusion, and sweeping views of the Grand Mesa, West Elk Mountains, and North Fork Valley. The thoughtfully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,570 square feet filled with natural light, warm wood accents, and windows that frame the surrounding landscape. Substantially updated in 2025, the home was expanded by extending the east wall approximately six feet and now features a covered wraparound porch, new wood siding, a new metal roof, new Sierra Pacific windows, new flooring and carpet, a new side porch and north-side entry, and a new hot-water boiler. The kitchen and additional interior improvements were completed in 2022–2023, with all appliances replaced during that time. One of the home’s most valuable features is its energy-efficient geothermal heating and cooling system, delivering consistent year-round comfort while supporting the low-maintenance, easy lock-and-leave lifestyle that makes this property equally appealing as a full-time residence or seasonal retreat. A freestanding gas stove adds warmth and character to the spacious living room, while the upper-level bedroom captures outstanding mountain views. The expansive covered porch provides an inviting setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, entertaining, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the extraordinary peace and quiet. A small fenced area directly off the porch offers a convenient outdoor space for dogs, with additional partial fencing elsewhere on the property. The acreage presents a beautiful blend of wooded terrain, open pasture, native vegetation, and natural trails, offering excellent recreational, agricultural, livestock, and equestrian potential. Two detached garage/workshop buildings provide approximately 1,226 square feet of additional enclosed space for vehicles, equipment, tools, recreational gear, storage, or hobby use. The property is served by a Fruitland Mesa domestic water tap, septic system, owned propane tank, and available internet service. A domestic well is also present but is reportedly not currently in use. The property is protected by a conservation easement intended to preserve its natural landscape, open space, and wildlife habitat, and includes a designated five-acre building envelope previously described as allowing additional improvements and potentially one additional residence, subject to verification of all restrictions and approvals. Fruitland Mesa Ditch traverses the property and is subject to legal access and ditch-maintenance easement rights. Buyer and Buyer’s Broker should review and verify all easement documents, locations, access rights, restrictions, and permitted uses. Whether envisioned as a private Colorado retreat, recreational basecamp, livestock property, seasonal getaway, or full-time residence, this remarkable acreage combines protected open space, public-land access, useful outbuildings, inspiring views, modern comfort, and a level of privacy that is increasingly difficult to find.
