Experience Colorado mountain living with room to breathe at 8200 Windmill Lane, a nearly 10-acre horse property just minutes from downtown Salida. With sweeping mountain views, an augmented well, irrigation water rights, and usable acreage, this property offers the perfect blend of rural lifestyle and everyday convenience.
This home was custom built in 2020 and thoughtfully designed to take advantage of the surrounding scenery. The main living area is located upstairs and features an open kitchen, dining and living space with large windows framing panoramic mountain views. Two bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, and the laundry room are located on the upper level, along with a deck that provides an unobstructed vantage point for taking in the mountain vistas and sunsets. The inviting third story loft has an abundance of natural light and space for reading, games, or a home office. The lower level includes a third bedroom, a bathroom, and attached two-car garage with added room for a workshop or workout space. A cozy wood stove efficiently warms the entire main floor, and central forced air and A/C ensure climate comfort in every season.
The home sits on a beautifully landscaped 2-acre parcel with drip irrigation, fruit trees, raised garden beds, Gunnison blue granite rocks, fire pit, and spacious fenced yard. The remaining 7+ acre pasture provides expansive space for horses, grazing, or 4-H animals. A large barn with a loft offers room for animals, equipment, storage, or workshop use.
Located in Windmill Ranch Estates just ten minutes from downtown Salida, this property offers stunning scenery and easy access to all the trails and outdoor recreation the Arkansas Valley has to offer.
Floor plan measurements indicate approximately 1,707 square feet of living area, including the finished lower-level bedroom. The county assessor is currently updating its records to reflect this finished space.
