30 Acres | 4 Bedrooms | 2 Bath | 2100 SF| $835,000

Nestled at the base of the West Elk Mountains, this scenic 30-acre horse property captures everything people love about the North Fork Valley — wide-open skies, rich hay fields, and peaceful country living just minutes from downtown Paonia.

A Working Farm Designed for Comfort and Function

With four paddocks, loafing sheds, and adjoining pastures, the property is ideal for horses or livestock. The 14-acre hayfield consistently produces around 400 bales of a grass-alfalfa mix in two cuttings — all without fertilizer — thanks to fertile soil and easy gated-pipe irrigation. Live water and native vegetation weave through the acreage, creating natural beauty and sustainability in equal measure.

Beautifully Remodeled Home

The ranch-style home has been completely remodeled and is truly move-in ready. Offering 2,100 square feet with four bedrooms and two baths, it’s spacious enough for family and guests alike. Two decks and a patio invite outdoor living, while the shaded yard, mature trees, and professional low-maintenance landscaping make this a place to relax and recharge.

Practical Features and Modern Upgrades

A heated 22×24 shop building provides room for projects, equipment, or hobbies, and there’s ample graveled parking plus room for future outbuildings. A reliable domestic water tap feeds multiple frost-free hydrants throughout the property, ensuring year-round convenience for livestock and irrigation.

A Setting That Inspires

Whether you’re watching the sun rise over the hayfield or winding down beneath the evening glow of the West Elks, this property embodies the serenity of Paonia’s rural lifestyle. It’s a rare opportunity to own a productive, well-kept farmwith everything already in place — and endless room to grow.
