Set against the backdrop of the San Juan Mountains and situated on 5.11 acres between South Fork and Del Norte, this Southwest-style hacienda offers character, acreage, views, and outstanding potential for the right buyer with vision and a willingness to invest some elbow grease. This unique property captures distant views of the Rio Grande River, surrounding mountain ranges, and the peaceful lifestyle Southern Colorado is known for.

A circular driveway provides convenient year-round access. Inside, the home showcases authentic Southwestern charm with custom tile floors featuring stamped buffalo details, reclaimed wood beams from a historic Creede mine, and expansive south-facing windows that fill the living spaces with warmth and natural light.
