If you've been searching for that rare combination of open space, practical infrastructure, and a quiet life that feels genuinely removed from the noise - this is worth a long look. In Whitewater, this 24+ acre property backs directly to BLM land, giving you views in every direction and the kind of elbow room that's getting harder and harder to come by. Pull up and take it all in. The newer exterior paint gives the home a well-kept presence against the high desert landscape, and the custom-made decks invite you to just stop for a moment and breathe. Whether it's morning coffee with the Mesa stretching out before you or an evening with the last light fading over the hills, this setting delivers every day. Step inside and you'll find a home that's been thoughtfully cared for. The kitchen is the heart of it - granite countertops, plenty of cabinet space, and a layout that works for everyday cooking and entertaining. The living room feels warm, anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove that earns its keep on cool Colorado evenings. The primary bedroom is a retreat. The custom en-suite stands out with its unique shelving and walk-in closet space that was clearly designed with care. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, hobbies, or a home workspace, and the full bath serves them well. Don't overlook the sunroom - a lovely bonus space that adds yet another layer of livability to this home. Now let's talk about what really sets this property apart. The large shop/garage is built for serious use - equipped with 220 and three-phase electric, it's ready to handle RVs, heavy equipment, major projects, or whatever your passion demands. Two new furnaces mean you're heading into the next season with confidence, and the infrastructure throughout reflects a property that's been maintained with intention. The corral setup with hay shed is ready for horses, and the land is genuinely set up for the equestrian lifestyle - fenced, functional, and connected to wide-open BLM riding right out your back door. A storage shed and tack shed round out the outbuildings nicely. And there's one more piece worth noting - a 266 sq ft ADU with its own balcony offers real potential for a guest space, rental income, or a private retreat. At 24+ acres, with a functional home, exceptional infrastructure, and a setting that reminds you why people fall in love with Western Colorado - this one is worth scheduling a showing for.
