About 997 County Road 119

This is the ultimate Colorado home site- a spectacular waterfront 3.26 acre fenced lot nearly spanning the Arkansas River, complete with an insulated and heated 42x60 foot outbuilding to use as a shop, garage, or barn. This is one of the finest river lots in the region, with 240 ft of private Arkansas river access just 2 miles from Florence, and less than 40 minutes from Colorado Springs. Picture yourself waking up to views of the water with the gentle sound of the river flowing just outside your door. The property has a propane tank, 30 amp and 50 amp electrical service to the barn and outside, an RV hookup with water and power, and all the water needed for irrigation, horses, and household use, with 2 irrigation shares, a household well AND 3 city water taps. Natural gas is available at the property line. Your exhilarating retreat might include the charming new barndominium lifestyle. The metal barn is elevated 8 ft to eliminate flood risk and is already equipped with washer and dryer hookups, a 220 amp power supply, propane heater and wood burning furnace. This special location is a haven for wildlife, especially blue heron and geese. Yet, the serene setting is just minutes from schools, shops, and restaurants. The land has been extensively surveyed and there is an approved building permit for a residence. This is an heirloom recreational property offering the outdoor enthusiast the perfect spot to build a dream home.
