Description
Situated at the base of Wildcat Canyon, 7.4 miles south of Montrose, Colorado, is the beautiful, 279-acre, Horsefly Ranch. This historic parcel features 81.4 irrigated acres alongside rolling pinion-juniper draws, badges of leave-laden cottonwood trees, and strong, southern, views. Tillable land is flood irrigated by the AlBrush Ditch, in use since at least to 1891, alongside an on-property irrigation pond. This deeded water is sourced from Horsefly Creek, which ultimately provides the parcel with 4,300' of direct creek frontage. Sporting and recreation opportunities stronger than most valley ranches can offer as the property shares its fence line with 2,320 acres of public land. The mantra of real estate is "location, location, location" and this ranch has all three! You are a single step from vast public land, 10 minutes from Montrose, and a leisurely drive from world-class skiing- what more could you ask for in southwest Colorado!
