Over 400 feet of Florida River frontage accompany this home. Really interesting, tiered property which includes a sandstone cliff running essentially north to south behind the home and a walking path down to the river. Owner has his own tee box down to his private putting green. Large shop/garage with reclaimed metal gives it that Telluride look. This detached building has a 10 foot double door, large storage attic with 6 ft + headroom, and wood heat. In addition to the 400 feet of river frontage on your property, there is a reciprocal easement with the 2 lots to the south of you providing approximately 1,200 lineal feet for fishing and recreation along the riverside with just those other 2 lots. This is an ideal property for the Farmington, New Mexico or Aztec, New Mexico commuter since it’s just over 4 miles North of the New Mexico border. Florida River frontage
Also would be an excellent home for an oil field worker especially since it has a great garage/shop. No covenants, so great for a home based business. Chicken coop already on the premises and a garden area down by the river complete with ample irrigation for your own "mini ranchette". Home has 3 bedrooms and an office with a closet and just over 1900 ft.². The 2009 septic permit was issued for a 4th bedroom expansion (from a 3 bedroom permit 2001), but was not expanded. Home is in compliance with original 3-bedroom permit. New owner has option to expand system (to accommodate a 4th bedroom) if desired. INFO REGARDING IRRIGATION WATER This property does not have an adjudicated irrigation water right. The seller does take water out of the Florida River via a pump and uses it to irrigate whatever he feels like frankly. Theoretically, he could take enough irrigation water to raise rice they are, if he wanted to. Remember that this is the last one half mile of the Florida River before it empties into the Animas River. Colorado Division of Water Resources says you can file for a water right and you would not be denied because there aren't really any downstream objectors on the Florida River. We're told the application fee is about $150. Please verify for yourselves how easy this would be.
This house has a central water system (with the two lots to the south), whole house reverse osmosis shared system. You will enjoy nice views of the river from your back porch. Seller added a stamped concrete patio that he valued at $9000. The price on his home was just recently reduced to help ensure a quick sale. The new price is $249,900.
