Bijou Basin Farm

Description

Bijou Basin Farm is an 80-acre property just 10 minutes east of the charming agricultural community of Elbert. Located off a quiet, well-maintained county road, the property is fully fenced, and features a 3-bedroom/2-bath home, a barn, and a storage building, as well as abundant wildlife and breathtaking views of the Bijou Basin, with its rolling hills accented by stands of pine trees.

Situated at the end of a 1/2-mile driveway, ensuring both privacy and tranquility, the home is a 2,200sf modular (built in 2008) with a full, unfinished, walkout basement, offering another 2,200 sf to expand and customize. The home includes an office with a Bijou Basin view, and an open central floor plan that ties together the spacious kitchen, dining area and living room. Door frames are sized to accommodate a wheelchair. The basement is plumbed for another bathroom.

Outside, a 10x20 maintenance-free Trex deck offers additional space for entertaining and relaxation. The home has an exterior of Hardie fiber-cement siding. And, a circular driveway wraps around the house, offering easy access from a vehicle to either level of the home.

The approximately 36x48 steel barn, with 3 stalls, has been headquarters for numerous equestrian efforts, and is ready to be put back to use for horses or other livestock, or as a shop building. The property also has a storage building, and outdoor water hydrants.

Deer, wild turkey and other wildlife thrive on this property, and are daily visitors.

The property is approximately 1/2 open, with meadows and abundant grass, and 1/2 wooded, and varies from level terrain to gently rolling hills. There’s plenty of space to build an arena, and opportunities to work horses (or hike) in the open or on wooded trails, on the level or on hills – all within the confines of 80 acres.

A purchase includes ownership of a propane tank, meaning a new owner would have a choice of propane providers.

Elbert – a no-stoplight town offering gas, groceries, coffee, an art gallery, and mom-and-pop restaurants – is just minutes away.
