Talk about loads of potential!! This 1939 cozy little house has had some remodeling and wiring upgrades. This home is 1.5 stories with a total of 899 square feet. The main level has a laundry room, country kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedroom. The upstairs has two bedrooms. The sellers started to put a new patio/deck on the front of the house but are unable to finish the project. The patio is framed, but not complete. A new front door with a beautiful oval etched glass panel was installed and a set of French doors were installed on the east side of the house.

The seller has spent some considerable time in planting trees and landscaping this cute yard. There are various fruit trees such as peach, golden and red delicious apple, cherry and pear. There are also grape vines and this fertile ground will produce wonderful plants of all kinds. In the summer when the trees are full of thick green leaves, the landscaping hides the home from the traffic on the road and provides a private and cool place to relax in the shade.
The barn/garage has a concrete floor and part of it has been converted into a workshop area. A wood burning stove heats the inside quickly providing a great get away, tinkering spot in the colder months. This building is 28' x 32'.
A small corral is located on the east side of the barn and there is a frost free hydrant there for watering animals.
There is also an old mud hut cellar and a outbuilding currently used as a chicken coop.
The house and outbuildings are on one deed with an acre of ground. The second deed is for the 36 additional acres featured in this auction. This acreage has been leased out for the last few years and there are several parties interested in possibly leasing the property from the new owners after this auction. Although there are two separate deeds for these properties, they will be sold together as one offering.

The property as been used for field corn, Olathe Sweet corn, beans, onions and alfalfa crops. The irrigation water is provided from the Uncompaghre Water Users and has an annual cost of approximately $1700. There are 4 entry gates into this field to provide great access for farm equipment.
This home needs a little TLC, paint and finish work, but it is very comfortable to live in. The current owners have done some remodeling, there has been some updating of the electrical system and the metal roof is only a couple years old. The windows are single pane glass with storm windows in place. The living room is very light, bright and "homey". The septic system is located on the north side of the house between the house and the mud cellar. Domestic water is supplied by Tri County, electricity by DMEA and there is a propane tank for gas storage.
The cute country kitchen has lots of cupboard space and has great natural light from the window on the north and the new french doors on the east side. The range/oven and dishwasher are included with the sale of this home. The refrigerators and microwave are not included.
The dining area opens into the living room on one side and a mud room/laundry room on the other.
The laundry room is large and spacious with plenty of room for the washer and dryer (not included), coat racks and even a small freezer. The hot water heater is also located in this room.
The living room is bright with natural light from the two windows and the glass in the front door. The house is heated with a propane forced air furnace and the current residents used small window coolers for a/c in the summer. These coolers are not included.
The master bedroom is right next to the bathroom, just off the kitchen. This is a bright clean room with access into the kitchen and into the living room
There are two bedrooms upstairs, each with one window. The views from these rooms are gorgeous.
