Charming farmhouse on 2.26 acres in Howard. Recently updated with new plumbing all the way from the well, new kitchen, new flooring, paint and drywall in 2025. New metal roof 2021, septic system replaced in 2016 and a 1620 square foot two-story workshop built in 2007. The home features a welcoming covered porch for morning sun and afternoon shade, leading into an entryway and a main level with two living areas, bright open kitchen, full bathroom and one bedroom. Upstairs are two further bedrooms, one non-conforming with egress but no closet, and a half bath. The two-level workshop is ideal for artists, craftspeople, contractors, toy collectors and potentially conversion to an ADU. A small year-round creek flows through the property providing a lush and shaded spot for shelter from summer heat. The well allows for watering of up to an acre of ground, and there is also a fenced garden area, outdoor pizza and bread oven, and chicken coop. No HOA. Easy year round access, 15 minutes to Salida, 5 minutes to the Arkansas River.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
