Description

Tipi Wind Ranch


Tipi Wind Ranch is a 160 +/- acre property in Cahone, Colorado, combining a working winter wheat field, established elk and mule deer habitat, and a fully remodeled off-grid home perched above the Dolores River canyon. The property sits at the end of the county road and is bordered by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ground on two sides, putting hundreds of thousands of acres of public land within reach directly from the property, including access suitable for riding out on horseback. Of the 160 +/- acres, 70 +/- acres are currently planted in winter wheat, giving the ranch an active agricultural income component. The balance of the acreage is elk and deer habitat and timber, anchored by a seasonal pond that draws deer, elk, and bear. The property has a documented history of producing trophy-class mule deer and elk. Tipi Wind Ranch sits within GMU 711, an area known for mule deer quality, and bull elk tags are available over the counter for the 2nd and 3rd rifle seasons. At 160 +/- contiguous acres, the property may qualify for Colorado Parks and Wildlife's Landowner Preference Program; buyers should confirm current eligibility and enrollment requirements directly with CPW. The home is a 1,344 sq ft, 2 bedroom, 1 bath residence with a loft, a basement, and a sun room, wrapped by covered porches that take in sweeping views of the Dolores River canyon and 360-degree mountain views in every direction. The house was remodeled in 2024 with steel siding and stone veneer exterior finishes and a new 1,100 sq ft wraparound porch built in tiger wood. Interior updates include new kitchen counters, a new furnace, an on-demand tankless hot water heater, and a new pressure tank. A cast iron wood stove anchors the living room for a reliable backup heat source. The home operates entirely off-grid. Power comes from a new solar array carrying a 30-year warranty, paired with six 48-volt lithium-ion batteries and a 12kW Generac backup generator for added reliability. Water is supplied by two 1,500-gallon cisterns. For buyers who prefer a grid-tied setup, both power and municipal water lines are reported to be within reasonable reach of the property. Tipi Wind Ranch is set up as a functional equestrian and working property in addition to its recreational value. Improvements include a 100' x 200' outdoor riding arena, a 6-stall horse barn with a tack room, outdoor paddocks, a hay barn, and a wood shed. A Quonset building with concrete floors and power serves as an oversized garage or shop for equipment, tools, and projects. A flagstone firepit overlooks the canyon, offering a built-in gathering spot to take in the views. A Chevrolet truck equipped with a snow plow and a gooseneck trailer fitted with a water hauling tank are available to convey with the property, supporting winter access and water hauling for an off-grid operation. Whether the draw is the hunting, the canyon and mountain views, the direct access to BLM public land, or the equestrian setup, Tipi Wind Ranch offers a rare combination of production ground, wildlife habitat, and a move-in-ready off-grid home at the end of the road in southwest Colorado. The seller has indicated a willingness to accept Bitcoin (BTC) as a form of payment; buyers should discuss payment terms and structure directly with their Land Specialist
