Property Description
There is nothing quite like the view from this charming home. Unobstructed and open, these views show the pristine nature of the adjacent conservation ranch and mountain range. This can be your vacation home, your short-term rental or your full time residence. Built in the early 1900's, the former Wetherill fish hatchery, now a year-round home, is located on Forest Road 520 and sits on over an acre of land with Spring Creek flowing through the property. The home was remodeled from it's original design to a two story home retaining the original charm in the upper level while adding an open concept family living and sleeping area/walk-out basement in the lower level. The house has room to sleep 12. One of the highlights of the upper floor is the sunroom which overlooks the river valley and mountains. Some of the character is seen in exposed barn wood, vintage tin, T&G ceilings and walls, antique vanities, vintage wallpaper, metal ceiling tiles, log and metal handrails. Downstairs the charm is in the rock wall foundations and refurbished open rafters/wood beam ceiling. Downstairs has in-floor radiant heat, laundry and mechanicals including the water heater and boiler system. Upstairs has radiant baseboard heat. It is located 20 minutes upriver from Creede on the road to the Rio Grande Reservoir [CR 520], close to the Rio Grande river for fishing/boating; close to lake fishing at nearby Regan Lake, Road Canyon Reservoir, Spring Creek Reservoir and the Rio Grande Reservoir. A perfect location to take off on your ATVs or jeep/snowmobiles to well known mountain towns. You won't want to miss this one! Short term rentals allowed. The current owners have replaced the roof (2025), replaced the well pump (2023) and had radon remediation done (2024).
