A rare opportunity atop Spring Creek Mesa in Montrose! A spacious, custom home with thoughtful features set on 44 improved acres, offering privacy, highly usable land, expansive views and exceptional proximity to the Montrose airport and community. The residence spans 3,243 square feet with five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and multiple living areas suited for both everyday comfort and entertaining. High ceilings, generous room sizes, large windows, and dedicated spaces throughout create an open, functional layout. The large family room above the garage offers flexibility as a second living area or media room. Geothermal heating and air-conditioning provide efficient, low-cost, year-round climate control. The acreage surrounding the house is fully irrigated, fenced, and intentionally configured to support a wide range of lifestyle uses. Approximately 40 acres benefit from irrigation through the Uncompahgre Valley Water Users Association, with established pasture irrigated by gated pipe, while landscaping, orchard trees, and garden areas are served by zoned drip irrigation. The CJ Lateral canal flows through the property, enhancing irrigation access and providing the ambiance of running water while contributing to the natural character of the land. The property has been carefully maintained and offers flexibility to continue leasing out the pasture, accommodating horses or livestock, or simply enjoying the spaces and privacy. Outdoor living and entertaining are equally supported, with a hot tub, custom gazebo, in-ground fire pit, and horseshoe pit creating inviting spaces to gather, play and enjoy your surroundings. Additional improvements include a detached shop building and three-bay loafing shed with tack room and electricity. The property also offers the potential for subdivision or further customization, allowing the next owner to shape the land to their long-term vision. The setting captures expansive views of the San Juan Mountains, Grand Mesa, Black Canyon region, and surrounding Western Slope landscapes. Despite its privacy and rural character, the location remains remarkably accessible, with Montrose Regional Airport and downtown Montrose less than 10 minutes away. Montrose offers a full range of amenities including dining, shopping, medical care, and schools, along with immediate access to Colorado’s premier outdoor recreation, from the Black Canyon of the Gunnison to the the San Juan mountains and Grand Mesa. This is a high-functioning lifestyle property designed for those who value space, privacy, and land usability while remaining closely connected to modern infrastructure, nation-wide air travel, and everyday convenience.
