Live Here, Work Here - One-of-a-Kind Colorado Barndominium The setting is what really makes this place stand out. You've got protected mountain views with adjoining land that won't be built on, so what you see now is what you'll keep. The ground is usable, open, and well-suited for horses, with plenty of room to spread out. This is also a heavily deer-populated property-it's not unusual to see groups of 10-20 deer moving through regularly, adding to the quiet, natural feel of the land. The views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains are front and center, and the property offers that hard-to-find combination of privacy, scenery, and usability.     This brand-new Barndominium is something you just don't see every day in this county. The layout is wide open with big windows and a ton of natural light, giving it a really spacious feel right when you walk in. The main floor offers 1,500 square feet, plus a 700 sq ft loft and a full 1,500 sq ft basement that's partially finished and ready for whatever direction you want to take it. The home is set up for 2-4 bedrooms (septic is built for four) and includes one full bath and two 3/4 baths, with a master that features a large two-person custom shower and double sinks. The kitchen sits at the end of the great room with brand-new GE appliances, and thoughtful extras like an automatic glass cleaner and spray system. Heating and cooling are handled by a high-efficiency mini-split system, and there's a gas stove for added comfort. The entire structure is very well insulated-including the walls, basement, and foundation-making it efficient year-round. The attached 30x40 shop/garage is fully insulated with 14' clearance and room for up to six vehicles, offering a ton of flexibility for storage, workspace, or future build-out.       If you're into the outdoors, this area is hard to beat.
