Located near Mesa, Colorado, this 355± acre mountain ranch combines protected open space, quality improvements, and exceptional wildlife habitat with a turnkey off-grid residential compound. Roughly 270 acres are encumbered by a Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation conservation easement, safeguarding scenic views, critical wildlife corridors, and long-term hunting value, while approximately 80 acres remain unencumbered, allowing for residential and operational use. A designated 6-acre building envelope provides additional flexibility for future development or ranch infrastructure. The ranch is improved with a 2,200± square foot off-grid main residence completed in 2020, along with a 1,000± square foot guest house featuring a sleeping loft, a yurt, walk-in cooler, and a well-equipped garage/shop. The shop is supported by a solar power system with battery storage and a backup generator, all supplied by a private water well. Situated at approximately 6,800 feet in elevation with reliable year-round access, the property supports strong resident populations of elk and mule deer and has a documented history of guided hunting income. Located within GMU 421, the ranch offers easy-to-draw licenses along with OTC opportunities and is conveniently positioned near extensive public lands, Grand Mesa recreation, Powderhorn Ski Resort, and less than 45 minutes from Grand Junction. An additional contiguous 527± acres (GJARA MLS #20255642) is also available, offering the opportunity to assemble a combined 882± acre legacy ranch.
