Welcome to 38500 Road J5, Mancos, Colorado – a rare opportunity to call a slice of Western paradise your very own. Tucked into the scenic beauty of Montezuma County, this 2,048 square foot home offers exceptional comfort, functionality, and enough room—indoors and out—for you, your family, and your four-legged companions to thrive. Whether you're a seasoned rancher, an aspiring equestrian, or someone who appreciates mountain air and open land, this property delivers the perfect combination of rural charm and modern ease. Set on spacious and well-thought-out acreage, this home boasts three bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing a comfortable and practical living space. The house exudes a warm, inviting personality that feels instantly welcoming. Natural light pours through the windows, highlighting the home’s thoughtful floor plan and cozy atmosphere. The open-concept living area connects the living room, dining room, and kitchen, making everyday life—or hosting friends—a seamless experience. Step inside and you’ll notice how every detail has been chosen with comfort and usability in mind. From the layout of the rooms to the smart placement of windows that frame the outdoors like a living painting, the design blends the ease of modern living with the quiet peace of country life. The large living room is ideal for relaxing after a day in the barn, with ample space for a comfy couch, family game night, or watching the sun set out west. The dining area flows effortlessly into the kitchen, which features generous countertop space, cabinets for all your culinary tools, and functionality to handle everything from morning coffee to a full holiday feast. The primary bedroom serves as a serene retreat with its private layout, ideal for winding down at the end of the day. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility—they're perfect for kids, visiting guests, or a home office. Of course, while the home itself is welcoming and comfortable, the real showstopper begins when you walk outside. This property isn’t just “horse friendly”—it was made with your equine companions in mind. Let's break it down. There’s a 10-stall horse barn designed for maximum efficiency. Each stall is spacious and ready to house your animals with the care and attention they deserve. With room for a tack area and feed storage, your morning and evening routines with your animals become simple and efficient. Looking for space to train, practice, or just have fun? How does a full-size roping and riding arena sound? Whether you're roping with friends or working on your riding technique, this arena gives you the room and structure to do it right. In addition to the barn and arena, you’ll appreciate the turnout pastures thoughtfully laid out across the land. These pastures aren’t just afterthoughts; they are designed to give all the animals room to graze, stretch their legs, and live comfortably. From your horses to the beloved barn cat, everyone has their space here. The property’s outdoor layout is organized for daily functionality, but it’s also undeniably scenic. Breathe in the views of Mesa Verde National Park from one side and the La Plata mountain range from the other. The zoning here adds to the flexibility of the land’s use, making it an inviting option for someone interested in agriculture or animal-based business endeavors. There's potential here for so much more than just a home. Perhaps you'd like to expand your herd, build a training program, or use the open pasture to rotate grazing crops. The opportunity is real and ready. As a new listing, this property provides a unique chance to own a well-prepared property in one of Colorado’s most beautiful regions. The maintenance of the structures and land has been well-considered, so you won’t be starting from scratch. The barn is ready. The pasture is waiting. And yes, the sunsets are free. Whatever your vision, this property offers more than just a house—it offers a lifestyle.
