Here is an unusual opportunity for a hunting and fishing compound or artist retreat on 505 acres in Tres Piedras 12 miles from Colorado and just down the road from the Mt. San Antonio Wilderness. Located across US Highway 285 from Carson National Forest and near BLM this property qualifies for hunting tags in one of the most popular hunting and fishing areas in the nation with abundant wildlife including elk, antelope, deer and turkey. Anchoring this property is a solidly constructed, guttered 2x6 two story 1809 sq. ft. stucco cabin built in 1998 with four large bedrooms, two baths and loft, part of which could easily be converted to an additional upstairs bathroom. Off grid living with active and passive solar construction includes 1600 and 1800 gallon cisterns, propane and wood stove with propanel roof and thermopane windows. Sealed post and beam foundation maintains the 4.5' crawl space temperature at 55 degrees year round. Cell service is available. Hybrid cell microwave phone is on site with service available for $35 per month including unlimited long distance. Extra rooms include sun room and den. Rough sawn pine paneling and tongue and groove ceilings lend themselves to a comfortable retreat. Enjoy the Taos Valley views from the bedroom balcony or master bedroom portal.

Bring your horses to the two acre, four strand smooth wire T-post with H-brace corners fenced corral and 16x8 horse shelter. Taos legendary douser, Joe Graves, predicts water on site within 200 yards of the house at 450' depth.
