At the end of a winding drive, beneath the towering backdrop of the Collegiate Peaks, lies a Colorado ranch property that captures the essence of mountain living. Surrounded by pines, open meadows, and sweeping mountain views, this remarkable property combines privacy, livestock infrastructure, and a sprawling custom log residence. The setting feels private, peaceful, and distinctly Colorado. Originally configured for llama operations, the property is well suited for equestrian, livestock, hobby farm, or recreational uses. The 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom log home blends rustic character with impressive scale. Massive hand peeled log beams, soaring tongue and groove ceilings, abundant natural light, and three fireplaces create a warm mountain lodge atmosphere throughout. The great room is anchored by a stunning stone fireplace and flows seamlessly into the dining area and remodeled kitchen featuring granite and butcher block countertops, a farmhouse sink, commercial refrigerator and freezer, double ovens, cooktop, breakfast nook, and extensive cabinetry. The flexible layout includes a family room, guest wing, sunroom, game room with pellet stove, secondary kitchen area, and bonus spaces. The upper level primary suite offers a sitting area, private balcony, walk in closet with washer and dryer, and a bath with soaking tub, separate shower, and double vanities. The guest wing includes two additional bedrooms, private baths, and its own living area. Extensive ranch improvements include two barns with power and automatic waterers, stalls, hay storage, pens, paddocks, fenced pasture, loafing sheds, tack areas, and multiple outbuildings. An oversized attached 3 car garage is complemented by a detached shop and equipment building with multiple overhead doors, covered storage, and room for equipment. Composite decking, freshly painted logs, metal roofing, mature landscaping, a seasonal pond, and fenced pasture complete this exceptional ranch offering beneath the Collegiate Peaks.
