Many years ago an old family ranch on the Colorado River was partitioned among family members. This property is one of only 4 home sites located along this stretch of the Colorado River. There is about 150 feet of river frontage on a deep and wide stretch of water offering miles of great fishing, swimming and kayaking. The lower bank has been cleared of underbrush making a perfect picnic area under the shade of large trees. The house and other improvements are located on the highest bank, well above flood level. The house is a 3/2 double wide manufactured home in very good condition with central heat and air. Most of the appliances and furnishings can remain with the house. A covered (8x12) front porch and a carport are nice additions. Watching a variety of birds, deer and other wildlife while enjoying the hot tub or cooking out on the large rear deck is definitely a bonus. Mature trees provide shade around the house and along the river. A water system using water pumped from the river has been installed to irrigate the beautiful St. Augustine grass lawn around the house and water for the garden areas. The garden areas are high fenced to protect vegetables and fruit trees from marauding critters. The large metal shop/barn (30x30) is insulated, has roof vents, built on a concrete slab, has 2 roll-up doors, electricity and water. There are 2 smaller utility/storage buildings (16x16 and 9x10) and 2 (18x20) metal carports with metal supports. Some of the acreage is part of a hay producing coastal field. The boundaries are marked but not fenced as the neighbors found it easier to fertilize and bale as one large field rather than separate small fields. Owner reports that he has harvested his limit of white tail deer and wild turkeys every year. Access to the property is an easy drive from the highway along an unpaved private road. Even though the drive is short, it is long enough to ensure a quiet existence on a beautiful stretch of river. So, whether you are looking for a primary residence, retirement reward or a family weekend get-away, this property is worth checking out.
