6135 county road 15

Set against the backdrop of the San Juan Mountains and situated on 5.11 acres between South Fork and Del Norte, this Southwest-style hacienda offers character, acreage, views, and outstanding potential for the right buyer with vision and a willingness to invest some elbow grease. This unique property captures distant views of the Rio Grande River, surrounding mountain ranges, and the peaceful lifestyle Southern Colorado is known for. The parcel runs parallel with County Road 15, with level ground on the western portion where the barn and corral are located, while the home sits on the elevated eastern side of the property. A circular driveway provides convenient year-round access. Inside, the home showcases authentic Southwestern charm with custom tile floors featuring stamped buffalo details, reclaimed wood beams from a historic Creede mine, and expansive south-facing windows that fill the living spaces with warmth and natural light. Outdoor living areas include an east-facing deck, covered rear porch, and multiple patio spaces ideal for enjoying both sunrise and sunset views. The flexible floor plan includes a private-entry office or possible third bedroom with its own ¾ bath. The walk-out lower level features two private bedroom suites, spacious fireside living/sunroom area, walk-in closets, and laundry room. Horse enthusiasts will appreciate the existing barn and corral setup, while creative buyers may envision workshop space, guest quarters, or hobby-use potential. The property does require repair, updating, cleanup, and deferred maintenance, and it has been priced with those considerations in mind. The seller is unable to complete repairs, creating an opportunity for buyers looking to build sweat equity and personalize a property with exceptional scenery, usable acreage, and distinctive architectural character. If you’ve been searching for a Colorado mountain property with privacy, personality, horse facilities, and long-term upside potential, this may be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
