35.33 Acres

Gunnison, Colorado, 81230

This stunning 35.33-acre lot in the peaceful Ohio Creek Valley offers the perfect backdrop for your dream home or equestrian retreat. Bordering more than 40,000 acres of BLM land (with ATV/Jeep trails) that connects to over one million acres of national forest and the West Elk Wilderness, the property provides unmatched access to riding, hiking, fishing, and hunting right from your doorstep. A flowing spring likely to attract big game is located on BLM land near the back of the property. Elk migration corridors are nearby. The property is located within Horse River Ranch which is a gated community with private roads maintained (including snow removal) by the HOA and private fishing access to Ohio Creek. Horse River Ranch is an active hay-producing subdivision, providing an added $400–$600 annually and, more importantly, keeping taxes extremely low at just $44 a year for the vacant land. Low property taxes and HOA dues make ownership exceptionally attractive, further enhancing the value of this opportunity. Irrigation ditches ensure reliable water for continued use for hay production. Buried electric and gas lines are already in place at the property line, while nearby water well records show impressive water yields of 15–35 gpm. Just a short drive from Gunnison and only 30 minutes from Crested Butte, you’ll enjoy convenient access to shopping, dining, and world-class skiing and outdoor recreation while still savoring the peace and privacy of sweeping mountain vistas in every direction.
