103+ ACRES BORDERING BLM WITH PANORAMIC WESTERN COLORADO VIEWS! Tucked near the end of a quiet road on Fruitland Mesa, this 103.534± acre property backs directly to public land and delivers sweeping views of the Grand Mesa, West Elk Mountains, and North Fork Valley. Abundant wildlife, natural trails, and true seclusion make it one of a kind. The 2 bedroom, 2 bath home offers approximately 1,570 square feet of light filled living with warm wood accents and windows framing the landscape. A major 2025 update expanded the east wall about six feet and added a covered wraparound porch, new wood siding, a new metal roof, new Sierra Pacific windows, new flooring and carpet, a new side porch and north entry, and a new hot water boiler. The kitchen and other interior upgrades came in 2022 to 2023, with all new appliances. Energy efficient geothermal heating and cooling keeps the home comfortable year round with minimal upkeep, perfect for a lock and leave lifestyle. A freestanding gas stove warms the spacious living room, and the upper level bedroom captures standout mountain views. The wraparound porch is made for morning coffee, evening dinners, and wildlife watching, with a small fenced dog area just off it and additional partial fencing around the property. The land itself is a mix of woods, open pasture, and native vegetation, well suited to recreation, livestock, or equestrian use. Two detached garage/workshop buildings add roughly 1,226 square feet of extra space for vehicles, equipment, or hobbies. Utilities include a Fruitland Mesa domestic water tap, septic, an owned propane tank, and available internet. A domestic well is also on site but reportedly not currently in use. A conservation easement protects the natural landscape and wildlife habitat, with a designated five acre building envelope previously described as allowing additional improvements and possibly a second residence, subject to verification. Fruitland Mesa Ditch crosses the property and carries its own access and maintenance easement rights. Buyer and Buyer’s Broker should independently verify all easement terms, access, restrictions, and permitted uses. Whether you’re after a private retreat, a recreational basecamp, a livestock property, or a full time home, this is protected open space, public land access, useful outbuildings, and long views, all in one increasingly rare package.
