Equestrian Homes For Sale in Pierce, CO
About Equestrian Property in Pierce
Pierce is another small Weld County town north of Ault — school, post office, and open plains. Buyers here are typically looking for acreage or a small-town primary residence with a quick commute to Greeley or the oilfield.
The Housing Story In Pierce
Pierce is a town of about 1,100 people on US-85, sixteen miles north of Greeley and twenty-one from Fort Collins by way of CO-14. It was incorporated in 1918 and named for General John Pierce, president of the Denver Pacific Railroad, which is the reason a town this size has a Main Street at all. People buy here for the same reason they buy in Ault or Eaton — a real town with a grocery store and a school district, at a price that has not caught up with Fort Collins, and twenty minutes from a job in either direction.
Buyer's Notes From Christine
Equestrian listings in Pierce need extra due diligence: water rights and augmentation plans, fence and cross-fence condition, arena footing and shelter, hay storage, well production for stock, and the county's setback and lot-size rules for keeping horses. I always ask for the last two years' hay-and-water records before a serious offer.
