Set on 33.154 private acres just seven miles northwest of Hotchkiss, this remarkable property captures the essence of Western Colorado with panoramic mountain vistas, lush irrigated meadows, and the tranquil beauty of three spring-fed ponds. Constructed with hand-crafted 10-inch Swedish-coped Hiawatha logs, the 2,398-square-foot residence is a timeless expression of mountain architecture. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, the home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an attached two-car garage, and a detached two-car garage and workshop. Warm hardwood floors, a dramatic river rock fireplace, and a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen featuring custom cherry cabinetry create an inviting atmosphere that is both elegant and comfortable. Water is one of the property's defining features. With 83 shares of the Highline Ditch, the land is well suited for irrigation while Stingley Gulch and the Highline Ditch flow gracefully through the ranch. Three picturesque, year-round ponds provide a stunning backdrop to the home, attract abundant wildlife, and create a peaceful setting rarely found on properties of this size. The improvements have been carefully designed to embrace the outdoor lifestyle. A covered pavilion offers the perfect venue for entertaining family and friends, while a fenced garden, potting shed, chicken coop, and detached shop support a self-sufficient country lifestyle. Overlooking one of the ponds, a charming trapper's cabin provides a quiet escape for guests, fishing, reading, or simply enjoying the sights and sounds of nature. Located just minutes from the vibrant communities of Hotchkiss and Paonia, the property enjoys convenient access to renowned wineries, orchards, farm-to-table dining, hiking, fishing, hunting, and endless public lands. The nearby Grand Mesa, Gunnison National Forest, and West Elk Mountains offer year-round recreation, making this an ideal primary residence, seasonal retreat, or legacy family property. Stingley Gulch Retreat is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained custom log home in one of Colorado's most desirable rural communities, where quality construction, valuable water rights, and extraordinary natural beauty create an exceptional Western lifestyle.
