Welcome to Lazy D Ranch! An Iconic Colorado Ranch with Water Rights, Sweeping Views, Timeless Charm AND a one-of-a-kind, masterpiece of a home on it! This remarkable 356-acre property in Colorado's stunning San Luis Valley has unobstructed views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and Saguache Creek running through the property! The ranch is turnkey and offers the ultimate lifestyle for cattle, horses, hay production or as a perfect retreat!. The 5200 +/- sq ft custom main home, built in 2009, was thoughtfully designed to showcase the mountain vistas from every angle. Floor-to-ceiling cypress-framed windows, Douglas fir ceilings, radiant in-floor heat, and an amazing chef's kitchen with walk-in pantry create a rustic elegance throughout. Unique features include a sunset lounge with passive solar design, a rock waterfall entry, Venetian plaster walls, and a spacious media room. Step outside to a fully equipped outdoor entertaining space with a pizza oven, built-in BBQ, and 3/4 fenced courtyard with decks, lounge areas, and a cozy fire pit-perfect for gatherings under Colorado skies, dark sky nights or sunny days.. The ranch includes two high-producing irrigation wells (1200 and 950 GPM), stock wells, several priority ditch rights, ponds, and good surface water rights from/on Saguache Creek. A drivable bridge rebuilt in 2021 provides access across Saguache Creek to the hay meadows. Outbuildings include a historic barn, root cellar, calving sheds, the original homestead, and a 3,200 sq ft shop with radiant floor tubing, bathroom plumbing, and 3-phase power. Water hydrants and power serve the house, shop, corrals, and future manager's home site. Farm equipment-hay wagon, riding mower, pumps, irrigation pipe, fuel tanks, and more-is included. Just 10 minutes from the Town of Saguache, Lazy D Ranch blends natural beauty, modern infrastructure, and rich agricultural potential. Whether you're ranching, homesteading, or investing, this is Colorado living at its best.
