Property Description

Amazing New Price ...Opportunity knocks to own this Salida gem-the original Vandaveer Ranch, one of Salida's earliest homesteads, now offered for sale. Located just across the road from the Arkansas River and bordering the sought-after Two Rivers & Confluent Park neighborhoods, this 5.7-acre property is a rare opportunity for development, income, or legacy ownership. This property already has key infrastructure in place for future subdivision or development. 10 lots almost ready to go; 10 water lines and meter pits installed, sewer in place for 7 lots, and ample acreage to explore creative residential or mixed-use development plans (Buyer to verify all subdivision rules/possibilities with City of Salida). Investors, builders, or visionaries will appreciate the flexibility-keep it as a ranch, subdivide into smaller lots, or create a destination event venue. The ranch also offers multiple income-producing opportunities. The spacious 2,509 sq. ft. custom main home features 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a dramatic great room open to the dining area and gourmet kitchen with butler's pantry, two living spaces, an oversized laundry room, and a beautifully updated primary suite. A remodeled 1-bedroom ADU with kitchen, bath, and private entrance provides rental income or guest accommodations. The 1,120 sq. ft. heated workshop/garage is ideal for storage or contractor use. The 3,924 sq. ft. historic barn has hosted weddings and events and has additional revenue potential. A circular driveway winds through open pasture and past one of the oldest standing structures in the valley, adding historic charm to the property. This is more than a home or a development opportunity-it's an investment in Salida's future! Whether you envision a gentleman's ranch, a residential development, or an event destination, this offers a unique combination of history and rich investment opportunity that's nearly impossible to find in this Salida location.
