Description

Located in a rural area south of the Moab golf course, this property is a lush oasis in the desert. The property has a conservation easement on it and is part of a wildlife conservation corridor stretching from a 300+ acre ranch on Pack Creek to Mill Creek Canyon and BLM land to the west. The easement allows for additional square footage to the home as well as a garage and shop. Additionally, there is also an allowance for a guest house, caretaker's cottage, barn, or an educational center. The adjacent 10 acres are also under a conservation easement. Seventy bird species have been identified in the area. The property is ideal as a horse property and is located in a quiet area of Moab away from the bustle of the city but only minutes away from all the amenities Moab has to offer. A golf cart can be driven from the home to the golf course, horses ridden into the canyon, bikers challenged by Flat Pass, and hikers can drop into Mill Creek to view petroglyphs or swim in deep pools. At present there is a Community Garden, bee hives, and a chicken coop on the land, but there is no obligation to continue the arrangement. There is also a fruit orchard and a pond. The main hay field has an irrigation wheel line as well as hand lines and the field produces four cuttings a year. The other two fields can be grazed and also have wheel lines. The property comes with water rights totaling 66.018 acre-feet of well water and 15 acre-feet of Kens Lake Irrigation water. All irrigation equipment is included. The home has 1851 sq ft with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The main area of the home has an open floor plan with lots of light and a cathedral ceiling. There are two porches off the living room and dining area with beautiful views in all directions. The primary bedroom with a bathroom and large walk-in closet is on the upper level and has a balcony with views of the upper hay field and the red rock bluffs. Two small bedrooms in the lower area can also serve as an office or TV room. The home comes partially or fully furnished. The seller is open to owner financing, terms to be negotiated.
