14051 Hwy 285, Salida CO – 45.61 Acres with Stylish Home, Ag Status, and Trail Access

This custom modular home sits on 45.61 acres just minutes from downtown Salida. Built in 2018, the 1,860 square foot home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the main level, plus a fully framed and insulated second story designed for an additional living area, bedroom, and bathroom.

Inside, the home features wide plank flooring, oversized windows, and an open-concept layout that flows from the living room with gas fireplace to the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen includes stainless appliances, shaker cabinets, and a walnut butcher block island that anchors the space.

Smart infrastructure is already in place. Power is provided by Sangre de Cristo Electric with support from an owned solar array. Starlink internet keeps you connected. Two leased DeLuca propane tanks serve the home and a backup generator, which is included but currently not operational. A grazing lease with Pridemore Cattle, shared with two adjacent parcels, qualifies the property for agricultural tax status.

There is no HOA and no covenants. You’ll have full use of the land with open views, quiet privacy, and space to grow. A one-mile private singletrack trail loops the property for hiking, biking, or running. A bridge over the arroyo leads to a tucked-away firepit surrounded by trees. With no city lights, stargazing here is unmatched.

A fenced garden space with raised beds is already set up. Whether you're building a retreat or living full-time, this is the rare chance to enjoy the Salida lifestyle with acreage, infrastructure, and freedom.
