Description
Words do not do justice for this 320 acre ranch! Outstanding privacy yet close to the conveniences of Cranbrook (airport) and Kimberley (voted best small town in BC) both only 25 minutes away. Visitors to the ranch are, without exception, captivated by the openness and views of the rugged, majestic Rocky Mountains. Adjacent to the ranch is 5000+ acres of Crown Land and 2000+ acres of Nature Trust with public access, affording miles of scenic hiking and horseback riding. For the horse enthusiast, all weather riding/training is a bonus in the 160 x 78 foot riding arena, built in 2021 with pride by Integrity Post Structures, constructed on concrete piers, two overhead doors (12x14ft and 8x8ft), two 4 ft man doors, 8ft fir kick-board and power in the building. This fully fenced and cross fenced ranch has 600+ acre feet of irrigation water rights which previous owners incorporated in a 160+ cow and hay operation. The ranch also features a 96x32ft historic barn built by master carpenters, a 100x36ft hay shed and 100x24ft implement shed and workshop. Now for the home: quality craftsmanship and attention to detail are obvious the moment you walk through the doors of this newly custom designed home. From the hickory hardwood floors, ceramic tile and cathedral ceiling to the high end appliances, European highly efficient wood stove, spacious carport and covered veranda... it is a perfect blend of aesthetics and functionality. The impressive lower floor is fully finished. A dream property and a rare opportunity in the Kootenays! (id:56537)
