Also, the Canyon is famous for Winery's!!! The fertile, irrigated land offers incredible potential for sustainable enjoyable getaway. The rich soil and generous piped water rights—.40 c.f.s from Rock Creek Ditch (Appropriation Priority No. 1962-1, Ditch 1)— is enough water to nurture a productive garden, mature fruit trees, and grape vines, all yielding a plentiful harvest season after season.

Additional highlights include a root cellar, useable outbuildings for animals and storage fencing and cross-fencing, and proximity minutes to the 12 mile stretch of Sand Canyon Trailhead for hiking, biking and horseback riding. This could be a great "stop off" place for snacks and boarding a few horses. While domestic water will need to be hauled in, a port-a-John would be an option for friends and family, the land’s productivity and natural setting make this a rare and special offering. County has a few restrictions but "no" building permits " except for engineered septic system, electrical and plumbing. Property line in back of home extends past the fence. Lots of potential with this property!!!
