Whistlin’ wings is a spectacular property located just 2 miles from the town of Greeley. This is a great opportunity to own a rare hunting and income producing property. With 25 acres of river bottom land this property offers an array of hunting possibilities. For you water fowl hunters the famous South Platte River has some of the best hunting anywhere in Colorado. In the early season you can expect to see wood ducks and teal buzzing your decoy spread. The later seasons offer the famous migratory flights of mallard ducks and of course the swarms of Canadian geese. If that’s not enough then grab your bow or rifle and head out to the heavily wooded areas and try your luck with the elusive whitetail deer, mule deer or coyote. Weather setting up your duck/goose blind or picking that perfect tree to sit and wait for the “big one” you will not be disappointed.

Towards the front of the property are 13.5 acres of pristine irrigated farm land. This is a great opportunity to grow income producing crops. The water to irrigate the crops flows from the 3 shares of Greeley irrigation company water rights. These water rights date back to the 1800’s. The rich soil has in the past produced a cash crop of $6000 in hay production.

Many improvements are located on the property including a newly remodeled 2 bedroom 2 bath houses, a detached 2 car garage, 2 nice size barns, and a number of sheds. The well laid out corrals and shelters add for further opportunities to raise sheep, goats or lamas. Of course a few horses would be right at home. While sitting out on the over sized deck having your morning coffee you can look off to the West and enjoy the incredible views of the Front Range Mountains.
You will feel right at home in this conveniently located homestead. Whether you are looking for a home with diverse acreage or wanting to get away to your very own hunting paradise, don’t miss this chance of a life time. Call now for a tour of Whistlin’ Wings Ranch.
