Discover the freedom and adventure of true off-grid living with this exceptional 55-acre property atop Colorado’s Uncompahgre Plateau. It offers 360-degree views, direct access to iconic trail systems, and unmatched big game hunting — all just 30 minutes from Montrose. This ridge-top retreat is close to GMU Unit 61, one of Colorado’s premier trophy hunting units, while sitting within GMU 62. Wildlife is frequent in the area, with elk, mule deer, and turkey visible from the deck and sometimes bear. Whether you're a seasoned hunter or nature enthusiast, this property is the ideal base for exploring Western Colorado’s wild beauty. Adventure abounds with direct access to the Dave Wood Recreation Area, the RimRocker Trail, to Moab Utah, and backroad access to Telluride — making it a launchpad for ATV rides, horseback treks, hiking, biking, and year-round recreation. The land is fully fenced and ready for horses or livestock, with year-round access via gated T-C Lane, a private road with a supportive, neighborly community. The main home is designed for comfort and immersion in nature. Expansive windows frame dramatic vistas of the Grand Mesa, the West Elks, the Cimarrons, Uncompahgre Range, the San Juan Mountains, to Horsefly with stunning sunset views to connect. While the interior showcases White Aspen tongue-and-groove ceilings and walls, tiled bathrooms, and a wood-burning stove for cozy, off-grid warmth. The kitchen offers ample cabinet storage for long-term stays. Upstairs, the lofted Primary Suite includes a private deck. A TREX deck is located on the escarpments edge, ideal for stargazing, morning coffee, or watching wildlife wander past. A separate 4-bed bunkhouse with a wood stove expands your living space, perfect for visiting hunters, friends, or family. County planning allows an additional 1,200 sq ft ADU within 300ft of main residence, giving you the option to build a guesthouse, rental unit, or additional workspace. This property is fully off-grid, equipped with a 12-panel solar system (paid in full), emergency propane generator backup, and a 300-gallon cistern — offering reliable and independent year-round living without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Well installation possible for buyer to purchase.
