About N/A
Willowrun is a 39.7-acre Rocky Mountain riverside homestead in south-central Colorado with 14 acres of fenced pasture running along either side of a stunning 1,000-foot riverfront on the North Fork of the Purgatoire River. Two modern, eco-friendly, stand-alone cabins sit on this Colorado mountain property that includes a 2+-car garage, 500 sq. ft. year-around geodesic dome greenhouse, riverside gazebo, tool/tack shed, and 50-ft. arching steel ATV bridge with two trail bridges - all on Trinidad city water. This nearly 40-acre river valley acreage offers endless potential for future additions. Ideal for artists, writers, or a home business, each maintenance-free cabin has a bedroom, sitting room, bathroom, and kitchen with a washer/dryer, making it perfect for two couples, home plus rental, or vacation rentals. Surrounding the cabins and greenhouse are two maintenance-free Trex decks, flagstone patios/paths, xeriscape gardens, and a 1,600 sq. ft. fenced yard. The arching steel ATV bridge and two smaller pedestrian bridges allow access to both sides of the river and to the hillside & plateau above that offers Rocky Mountain views. The stucco cabins and other buildings that were constructed between 2011 and 2018 have metal roofs and soffits and are heavily insulated with double/triple-glazed windows, making them extremely economical. Thanks to electro-thermal storage (ETS) heating and on-demand hot water, the TOTAL utility bill averages $178/month. City water that serves the entire campus is a rarity and sets this property apart of other rural properties. Likewise, the reliable high-speed internet supports remote work, web-based businesses, and streaming TV. The well-regarded Primero K-12 school with a 10 to 1 teacher-to-student ratio is 10 miles away with bus service. There is also a vibrant homeschool community here as well. The mountain-sourced river on Willowrun offers several great fishing holes populated by native brown and brook trout.
