Put your ideas to work in a property where established features, usable spaces, and improvement potential come together. Located on a quiet Cedaredge street, this 1,552-square-foot manufactured home with a stick-built addition and partial basement offers an approachable opportunity for a first-time buyer, investor, or purchaser ready to renovate and make it their own.
A half-circle gravel driveway creates easy access across the landscaped .36-acre lot. Concrete edging and walkways, frost free hydrant, mature trees, and shrubs add definition to the outdoor setting. Privacy and barb wire fencing provide separation around portions of the property while leaving room to garden, landscape, or reshape the yard to fit a new owner’s plans.
Inside, enter the living area featuring a pellet stove for added warmth and large windows for natural light. The adjoining kitchen and dining area includes a refrigerator, dishwasher, electric range with vent fan, countertops, and cupboard storage. Carpet, engineered wood, and vinyl flooring define the living spaces, while ceiling fans and an electric wall-heating unit provide additional comfort.
The home includes three bedrooms (one non-conforming), one full bath, one three-quarter bath, and a partial basement that adds useful space beyond the main living area. French doors open onto the back deck—a place to begin the morning, watch for passing wildlife, or settle in beneath Colorado’s open skies and star-filled nights. A one-car garage adjoins an insulated, heated shop designed with concrete floors, 220 amp, overhead lighting, an air compressor, air-conditioning unit, paint room, exhaust fan, overhead propane heater and storage space offer a practical setup for hobbies, repairs, creative work, or equipment organization.
The home has an Orchard City water tap and city sewer. Its in-town location places schools, parks, shopping, medical offices, the post office, bank, churches, local emergency services and more within the surrounding Cedaredge community.
On the western slope of Colorado, Cedaredge sits along Highway 65, the Grand Mesa Scenic and Historic Byway, at the base of Grand Mesa—often described as the world’s largest flattop mountain. Orchards, vineyards, small farms, and open country shape the area, while nearby public lands offer access to fishing, hiking, camping, skiing, snowmobiling, wildlife viewing, and changing mountain seasons. Montrose and Grand Junction are each approximately an hour away in each direction on Highway 50, providing access to regional airports, hospitals, retail, and additional services.
This property is ready for repairs, updates, and renewed attention, yet its footprint, workshop, outdoor setting, and Cedaredge location provide a foundation worth considering. Restore what is here, introduce your own style, and uncover the possibilities within this Western Colorado home.
Highway 65, known as the Grand Mesa Scenic and Historic Byway, connects Highway 50 with I-70 through mountain landscapes and historic Western Colorado communities. Along the route, the Surface Creek Valley unfolds through fruit orchards, open fields, and farms tended by generations of local growers.
Located near Cedaredge, the property offers convenient access to the services that support daily life and welcome visitors. Grocery stores, restaurants, cafés, specialty shops, banks, schools, churches, medical and dental offices, automotive services, a post office, museum, parks, rodeo grounds, golf course, campgrounds, and local wineries are found throughout the surrounding community. Surface Creek flows through Cedaredge, adding movement and natural beauty to its small-town setting.
Orchards, fields, established neighborhoods, and mature vegetation shape the valley landscape. The area provides opportunities for birdwatching and observing wildlife while enjoying Colorado’s changing seasons, blue skies, and views toward Grand Mesa.
To the south, Delta offers additional shopping, a hospital, schools, an airport, golf, dining, and other regional services. Nearby Sweitzer Lake State Park provides opportunities for boating, fishing, hiking, picnicking, and time beside the water. The West Elk and San Juan Mountain ranges stretch across the horizon.
Grand Junction is approximately an hour away, with a regional airport, colleges, medical facilities, major retail, dining, and access to Colorado National Monument and surrounding public lands. The surrounding high desert offers off road, ATV, hiking, biking, popular wheeling challenges and horseback riding trails with valleys of dinosaur finds and diggings, river rafting, boating, and fishing. Challenging Jeep trails for the popular wheeling sport.
From the orchards of Surface Creek Valley to the forests and lakes of Grand Mesa, this Cedaredge-area location places Western Colorado recreation and community connections within reach.
Grand Mesa, often described as the world’s largest flattop mountain, rises above the surrounding valley with forests, open meadows, and more than 300 lakes. Lodges, campgrounds, fishing waters, boating areas, hunting opportunities, and hundreds of miles of hiking, ATV, and biking trails create room to explore throughout the warmer months. Winter brings cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, downhill skiing, and miles of snow-covered country.
The Grand Mesa Visitor Center provides area information and a place to learn more about the mountain’s landscape, wildlife, and recreation. Powderhorn Mountain Resort, located along the northern edge of Grand Mesa, offers seasonal activities for a range of ages and experience levels.
Photographers can follow the changing light across lakes, forests, and distant ridgelines, while those seeking a slower pace can find space to step away and reconnect with the outdoors. From this property, travel in any direction leads to another side of Western Colorado—from the lakes and forests of Grand Mesa to rugged adobe hills, river valleys, and high-desert country. Recreation is not limited to one season or destination; it is woven into the landscape surrounding Cedaredge.
