Property Description
A truly one-of-a-kind horse property in Salida — complete with water rights on the Missouri Ditch. Enjoy peaceful country living just minutes from downtown on well-maintained county roads. Set on 8.5+ acres with approximately five acres of fenced, irrigated pasture, a long private driveway leads to an elevated homesite with sweeping mountain views from nearly every window. The classic 6-stall barn (54' x 40') is ready for horses or flexible use. Inside, an elegant foyer opens to a light-filled floor plan. The main-floor primary suite features a spacious en-suite bath and a French-door bonus room perfect for an office or studio. The chef's kitchen and great room flow to one of two covered patios — ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The finished basement is nearly 2,000 sq ft of versatile flex space, including a media and game room, optional guest room with walkout access, and a wine cellar. The oversized garage fits multiple vehicles plus a full workshop with built-in shelving and upgraded electrical. Above it, a bonus room with a private staircase and exterior entrance is perfect as a guest suite, home office, or ADU — a great opportunity to create a separate apartment for tenants or land crew. Located in Mountain View Subdivision, a quiet enclave of just six homes. Please do not access the property without a confirmed showing scheduled through the listing agent.
