Colorado Property Offers Buyers the Best of Both Worlds
Rocking Horse Ranch - A Scenic Private Retreat and Recreational Lifestyle Haven amid Grand Mesa
Kansas City, MO (PRWEB) May 16, 2009 -- Buyers today are looking for more than an ordinary home. It's really about finding the property that matches their unique idyllic lifestyle. That lifestyle might include a year-round recreational haven, private retreat or outdoor escape - or it might be a combination of all of these and more. For buyers seeking both serenity and possibility, the Rocking Horse Ranch Retreat, located at the heart of Colorado's Grand Mesa, might be the property of their dreams.
Spanning 22 acres, the ranch offers majestic views, abundant wildlife and a fully furnished residence with a solid cedar and stone exterior, 6,000 square feet of living space featuring luxury amenities throughout. The property also includes a 40x60 barn with four stalls, a tack room with a tile floor and a pair of 12-foot-wide doors leading to two corrals. Coon Creek flows through the property year-round and the property includes 12 shares of the creek's water, as well as a retention pond for irrigation use. The creek's rushing water can be enjoyed from the pine log pavilion built over it. The pavilion makes a perfect personal getaway or entertaining venue with its tiled credenza, 10-foot curved eating bar and a park area that can host hundreds of guests.
Private tours of the Rocking Horse Ranch Retreat can be arranged through United Country - RealQuest Realty by contacting Mike Krieg, broker, at 970-640-4772. This exclusive property is listed at only $2,800,000. Photos and additional details can be found at http://www.waterfrontmountainretreat.com.
Although the ranch itself offers a plethora of recreational opportunities, the property's proximity to the Grand Mesa National Forest and the city of Grand Junction, the largest regional hub between Salt Lake City and Denver, also opens the door to a broad range of year-round activities.
A five minute drive will take you to the 510-acre Powderhorn Resort, a well-known skiing and snowboarding destination.
