Offered by Backcountry Realty. Office located at 1130 Market Street in Meeker, the heart of the beautiful White River Valley of Northwestern Colorado.

77 beautiful, irrigated acres just two miles south of Meeker and a quarter mile west of County Road 13. Being off of the county road, this property is very private and secluded with only two neighboring properties using the same private access road from County Road 13.  Sitting on a rolling hill, the property runs north to south for 3/4 of a mile, and east to west it varies from about 323 feet wide to almost a quarter of a mile at the widest.  The property gently slopes down into creek bottom valleys on both the east and west side.  Fenced and cross fenced into several fields and pastures.  The property borders the Meeker Golf Course on the north end for a little over 323 feet, and private land surrounds it on the other three sides.

The property has 10 shares of the Miller Creek Ditch Company, which translates to about two cubic feet per second of water, if the ditch is full.  The owners raise between 180 and 220 ton of grass hay per year.  In this area we only get one cutting of hay, usually in early July, and then raise some good pasture the rest of the summer.

A 32 foot by 100 foot pole hay barn sits on the top of the hill with fields to the south, east and west.  A gravel lane leads north from there to the home.  Near the home is a 25 foot by 50 foot metal shop with a concrete and gravel floor and a 24 foot by 36 foot open faced machine shed for parking in.  To the west of there are corrals with a loading chute and a 20 foot by 30 foot loafing shed. 

The home was built in 1977 and remodeled in 1996.  The main level has 1,404 square feet of living space, plus a 676 square foot two car attached garage.  The walk-out basement also has 1,404 square feet.  There are two bedrooms on each level, four total.  The main level has a 3/4 bathroom between the master bedroom and the living room and a half bathroom near the laundry room.  The basement has a full bathroom.

The home has electric baseboard heaters in every room, each with their own thermostat.  A wood burning stove is in the center of the big room with the living room on one side and the kitchen on the other.  Most of the basement is a large family room.  There is a wood and coal burning stove in the center of that family room.  The windows are Andersen vinyl windows, the six inch thick walls are well insulated, the ceiling has extra insulation.  The siding is aluminum and the roof is metal.

The owner owns 1/4 of the mineral rights and will pass them on to the buyer.
