40-Acre Turn-Key Equestrian Homestead

Rare Opportunity - Complete Horse & Hay Operation Ready for You

Welcome to one of the most thoughtfully assembled equestrian homesteads to hit the market. Spanning 40 productive acres, this true turn-key ranch offers an unmatched combination of premier horse facilities, diversified hay production, multiple quality water rights, and a comfortable home -- all working together seamlessly from day one.

Water & Irrigation Infrastructure-
Water is the lifeblood of any ranch, and this property delivers in abundance. Benefiting from multiple quality water rights through the Taughenbaugh Ditch, the operation is supported by a fully lined irrigation pond, a wheel-line system servicing the expansive hay meadows, and a gated pipe system for efficient, controlled irrigation of the smaller grass pastures. Whether you're pushing water to your alfalfa stands or topping off pasture tanks, the infrastructure is in place and ready to perform.

Equestrian Facilities - Truly Unmatched
Horse owners will immediately recognize the caliber of thought and craftsmanship invested here. Three generously sized welded pipe-fenced grazing pastures, each with water, provide safe, durable turnout for your entire string. Work and train in style with a 50-foot round pen with sand footing and a competition-ready 160' x 250' roping arena complete with a return alley, calf roping lane, and cattle pens -- a complete setup for the serious roper or stockman.
The centerpiece of the operation is a striking 55' x 75' steel barn and shop, engineered for both horsemanship and working ranch life.
Features include:
• Individual horse runs with a separate feed alley for efficient daily care
• Fully insulated tack room to protect your gear year-round
• Dedicated hay storage -- load in and feed out with ease
• Wash rack for post-ride care and grooming
• Concrete shop flooring with large sliding doors for equipment access
• Electric frost-free hydrants throughout -- no frozen water worries, even in the depths of winter

Productive Acres - Hay & Grazing Operation
The ground itself is equally impressive. Currently planted and producing across three distinct forages:
• 17+/- acres of established alfalfa -- premium hay production ready to harvest
• 17+/- acres of mixed brome grass -- dual-purpose for quality hay and rotational grazing
• 2+/- acres of wheat/rye -- ideal cool-season grazing to extend your forage calendar
This diverse forage base reduces feed costs, generates sellable hay inventory, and supports a healthy year-round grazing program.
PLUS- BLM and FS access 3-5 minutes by horse.

The Home-
After a long day in the saddle, come home to a well-appointed 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom residence with an attached 3-car garage, offering 2,218 square feet of comfortable, functional living space. The layout flows beautifully, with a walk-in closet, stainless steel appliances, and sweeping ranch views from every angle. Unwind on the covered front or back porch and take in the wide-open scenery that surrounds you.
Beneath it all, a high-producing well pumping over 15 gallons per minute - approved for multiple households - ensures reliable domestic water for years to come.
