Wow this home may be just what you are looking for! Tucked away in the small town of Wild Horse, Colorado. Once a bustling village set on the vast eastern plains near the Union Pacific Railroad and Big Sandy Creek, it is now reduced to a post office, community building in the old school and a handful of homes. Wildhorse is located on Highway 40/287 which connects the front range of Colorado to points beyond in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. You will love the rustic charm of this home with lots of opportunities to make it your own. A little dry wall repair, some paint, and a deep cleaning will make this home one that anyone would be proud of. You will absolutely love the quonset building with endless storage and potential for all kinds of projects. The adorable vintage mercantile store which is currently used for storage would make a fun retail site for antiques, crafts, coffee, or anything else your imagination can dream up. Located just a few miles from the growing community of Kit Carson to the East and historic Hugo to the west. There is plenty of room for a few chickens, a goat or two, and maybe even a horse, space for gardens and room for kids to roam. If getting away from city stress, chaos, and too many people is one of your goals, you should definitely check this property out.
