Quartz Creek Valley Ranchette – 51± Acres | National Forest Access Rare opportunity to own a beautiful homestead and ranchette in the coveted Quartz Creek Valley. This 51± acre property, consisting of two parcels, is thoughtfully set up with the equestrian and rural lifestyle in mind while offering privacy, recreation, and agricultural productivity. The ranch features a comfortable 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, complemented by a 1,200 sq ft insulated metal shop with electricity and a 1,440 sq ft barn complete with 6 interior horse stalls. Approximately 12 irrigated acres of productive hay pasture are supported by 4 CFS of deeded water rights, typically producing around 38 large round bales annually. Additionally, the 15 GPM well has approval for domestic, livestock, and up to 1 acre of lawn and garden watering, which is an asset that's becoming harder and harder to find. This productive setup makes the property ideal for horses, livestock, or a self-sustaining homestead operation. The property qualifies for agricultural status, providing potential property tax advantages while supporting its ongoing agricultural use. Established chicken coops allow you to raise your own chickens and enjoy fresh eggs right from the ranch. Fully fenced and well organized, the hay pasture is separately fenced from the barn area, making livestock management simple and efficient. A natural wall of aspen trees along County Road 76 provides a scenic privacy buffer while still allowing easy, year-round access. Located just 25 minutes from Gunnison, you’ll enjoy the peace of country living without sacrificing convenience. One of the most exceptional features of this ranch is its direct, exclusive access along the western boundary to over one million acres of National Forest, opening the door to endless horseback riding, hunting, and backcountry exploration right from your property. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being located in Game Management Unit 55, known for trophy-class mule deer and elk, with frequent wildlife sightings including deer, elk, grouse, fox, coyotes, and even the occasional moose. Recreation opportunities abound throughout the Gunnison Basin. The property sits perfectly between Crested Butte Mountain Resort (about 60 minutes) and Monarch Mountain (about 47 minutes), offering excellent winter skiing options. World-class fishing, hunting, hiking, horseback riding, 4x4 trails, snowmobiling, camping, and rock climbing are all within easy reach. Blue Mesa Reservoir, Colorado’s largest reservoir, is just 44 minutes away for boating and trophy lake trout fishing. The sale includes two parcels under one account, presenting potential for an additional homesite and separate driveway access. Meanwhile, the nearby town of Gunnison offers a regional airport with daily commercial service via United Airlines, along with all essential services and amenities. Whether you're looking for a working mini ranch, horse property, hunting basecamp, or a peaceful Colorado homestead, this Quartz Creek Valley property offers a rare blend of privacy, productivity, valuable water rights, and direct access to the vast Colorado backcountry.
