About This Home

12969 1750 Road

If you have been searching for a place where the only sounds are the wind, wildlife, and endless open space, this extraordinary off-grid retreat delivers an experience that is becoming increasingly rare and with owner financing available, it is a true opportunity. Situated on 41.08 secluded acres and bordered by BLM land on three sides, this property offers unmatched privacy, breathtaking 360-degree views, and the true freedom that comes with owning your own piece of Colorado's high desert. Tucked away at the very end of the road, the low-maintenance stucco ranch-style home provides a comfortable and secure sanctuary. Inside and out, the home is designed for complete peace of mind, featuring a cozy wood stove, a gas furnace, a spacious covered patio perfect for taking in the sweeping panoramic vistas, and an underground 1,100-gallon water cistern. Whether you are seeking a full-time residence, a seasonal getaway, a recreational hub, or an off-grid homestead, the surrounding landscape provides endless opportunities for outdoor adventure. Direct access to thousands of acres of public land means hiking, horseback riding, hunting, ATV trails, and wildlife viewing begin right at your property line. Nature enthusiasts will especially appreciate being situated adjacent to a protected antelope breeding area, where herds are frequently seen roaming throughout much of the year. Located just minutes from Austin and Delta, you enjoy the rare combination of total seclusion with effortless access to regional destinations. Spend your days exploring the Grand Mesa, the world's largest flat-top mountain, with hundreds of alpine lakes for fishing, camping, mountain biking, skiing, and snowmobiling. The nearby Colorado River and Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area offer world-class rafting, kayaking, and dramatic canyon terrain. Back down in the valleys, enjoy the local charm, agricultural heritage, and vibrant culture of Cedaredge, Paonia, and Hotchkiss, including local farm stands, art galleries, and the renowned wineries of the West Elks AVA. Please note that the property grounds and exterior will be completely cleared and cleaned up prior to closing. Additionally, due to the property's off-grid improvements and self-contained utility systems, traditional conventional, FHA, VA, and USDA financing is not expected to be available. Interested buyers should anticipate purchasing with cash or exploring financing through a portfolio lender, private bank, or specialty lending source. Properties with this degree of privacy, direct public land borders, abundant wildlife, and pristine Colorado scenery rarely come to market.
