Property Description

Just 12 miles from Cortez, Elk Crossing Ranch spans 204± acres of productive Southwest Colorado ground, featuring a newly completed off-grid home, extensive livestock improvements, and a landscape frequented by elk, mule deer, and other wildlife. Completed in 2024, the custom-built 2,600± square foot home was thoughtfully designed for comfortable country living while providing the reliability and self-sufficiency many landowners seek today. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence features an open floor plan filled with natural light, aspen-lined interior walls, and durable stained concrete floors throughout. The spacious kitchen serves as the heart of the home with custom oak cabinetry, handcrafted hickory and cherry wood countertops, and ample room for gathering with family and friends. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and beautifully finished tiled shower, while a dedicated office provides space for remote work or managing ranch operations. Built for independent living, the home's off-grid infrastructure includes a substantial solar power system with battery storage, a solar-powered well, 1,000-gallon water storage tank, and backup diesel generator. Attached to the residence is a 1,200± square foot shop and garage with 240-volt service, providing ample space for equipment, projects, storage, and day-to-day ranch needs. A wraparound covered porch offers expansive views of the surrounding countryside and the nearby Sleeping Ute Mountain, creating an ideal place to unwind after a day on the ranch. The productive soils and open terrain support a variety of agricultural uses, from livestock grazing to dryland farming. Fully fenced and cross-fenced into four pastures, the property is well-equipped for cattle, horses, sheep, and other livestock. Extensive improvements include pipe corrals, automatic watering systems, livestock shelters, working facilities, loading areas, and a round pen, creating a turnkey setup for ranching or equestrian enthusiasts. Wildlife is a defining feature of Elk Crossing Ranch. Large herds of elk regularly move through the property during migration periods, while mule deer are commonly seen throughout the ranch. Located in GMU 72, the property offers excellent hunting and recreational opportunities and may qualify for landowner hunting benefits, subject to applicable regulations. Despite its private setting, Elk Crossing Ranch is conveniently located near some of Southwest Colorado's most desirable recreational destinations. McPhee Reservoir, the Dolores River, public lands, and countless opportunities for hunting, fishing, boating, hiking, horseback riding, and exploring are all within easy reach. Whether you're seeking a productive agricultural operation, an equestrian property, a hunting retreat, or a place to embrace a more self-sufficient lifestyle, Elk Crossing Ranch offers a rare combination of quality improvements, functional infrastructure, and exceptional acreage in the heart of Southwest Colorado.
