Creekside Haven with Space to Roam, Breathe, and Settle In Located in the close-knit community of Howard, Colorado, where quiet roads, wide skies, and mountain backdrops define daily life, this property offers a peaceful escape just 20 minutes from the restaurants, shops, and energy of downtown Salida. A wooden fence and tree-lined drive welcomes you into a setting that feels more like a private park than a typical home site. This charming home features a red metal roof, cedar siding, and a classic covered front porch that feels like it belongs on a postcard. Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a large bonus room upstairs with an abundance of storage space, that could easily serve as a fourth bedroom, office, or creative studio. The home has been lovingly maintained with newer windows, updated appliances, and thoughtful touches throughout. Out back, a covered deck lets you relax to the sound of Stout Creek, which runs through the property year-round. A natural spring fills a little seasonal collection pond, adding to the peaceful setting. The 1.5-acre lot is surrounded by larger parcels in a quiet ranching community, offering rare privacy without isolation. The detached two-car garage offers plenty of space for vehicles, tools, or outdoor gear and gives you the flexibility to create a workshop or hobby space, and the property is served by a private well and septic. There are no covenants or HOA restrictions here. Just space, trees, and fresh mountain air. If you're craving land, water, and quiet with town still in reach, this is your place to land.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
