There's something about owning a home with the river that brings a sense of calm. From the home, you look out and see the river winding its way through the valley--a quiet reminder of the lifestyle this property offers. Step outside and take in the space--just over 11 acres of open ground, wide open skies, and uninterrupted 360-degree views. The river sits beyond, adding to the peaceful feel of the property. It's quiet out here, offering room to breathe and a setting that's hard to find. This is a rare opportunity for someone with vision. The home is a fixer-upper, ready for the right person to put in the work and bring it back to life. In return, you get the reward of acreage, views, and a setting that captures the beauty of Northwest Colorado. Inside, the home offers four bedrooms plus a potential fifth bedroom with a separate entrance--ideal for a future mother-in-law suite, guest space, or added flexibility. The large, one-level layout provides ample room to reimagine, and the oversized garage underneath adds valuable storage and functionality. The home was positioned to take advantage of what matters most here--the sweeping views, the open land, and the sight of the river moving through the valley. Perched high on the hill, the home takes in wide open views of the river, surrounding mountains, and hay fields below. Properties with river access don't come along very often, especially with this kind of setting. If you're looking for privacy, wide open spaces, and truly amazing views--this is it. Cash or conventional preapproval required. The home will not qualify for FHA, VA, or USDA financing. Property is being sold AS IS.
