77.5 +/- Acre Farm

Ranch Description

This 77.5 +/- acres farm land in the heart of the San Luis Valley is ready for production and perfectly positioned for both seasoned operators and those looking to start a small-scale agricultural lifestyle. With 64 acres currently under pivot irrigation, a newly equipped ag well pumping between 500 and 600 gallons per minute, and a Valley pivot system with eight towers and 1,340 feet of coverage, the setup is in place to keep this ground productive. The water rights include a decree for 240 acre-feet in Subdistrict 4, and the property features 6-inch and 8-inch diversions for irrigating across the entire acreage. The remaining 12 acres, located on the southwest corner and along the western boundary, offer a great location to build your home, barns, and outbuildings without disrupting hay or pasture ground. A lease was in place for the 2023 season that generated income and helped cover operating costs. Access is easy off a well-maintained county road, just a quarter mile from the highway, with wide-open valley views in every direction and no close neighbors in sight. This is a productive property with real ag value and serious potential, but it also offers the peace, space, and scenery that draw people to the San Luis Valley in the first place. You're just 13 miles from Crestone, about 37 miles to Alamosa, and roughly 45 minutes from Salida. Monarch Ski Area, the Great Sand Dunes, and multiple hot springs are all nearby, making this a rare mix of working land and lifestyle location. Whether you're expanding an existing operation or starting something new, this ground is ready to work for you.
