Rustic cabinSweeping mountain viewsIdeal for horses livestockMostly fencedWide-open space
Welcome to Circle JG Ranch, a true slice of Colorado’s Western heritage and one of the last great ranching opportunities near Leadville. Spanning 160 acres with sweeping mountain views, and fully surrounded by public land, this rare and remarkable property was formerly owned by renowned Western artist Joe Grandee, whose legacy brings a touch of historic charm to an already extraordinary setting. Mostly fenced and framed by panoramic alpine views, the land is ideal for horses, livestock, or creating your own Rocky Mountain dream. The property includes a rustic cabin—listed at 897 square feet per county records, though likely larger due to an older addition. With 2 bedrooms, a ¾ bathroom, and a half bath, plus existing electric, plumbing (needs new septic system), and a well, the cabin offers a footprint for restoration or a future homesite. The property may offer subdividable potential and additional water rights (to be verified by buyer).Whether you envision a working ranch, a private retreat, or a legacy mountain estate, Circle JG Ranch provides the canvas for something truly special. Properties of this size, setting, and historic significance are extremely rare in this region. Just a short drive from the heart of Leadville, this ranch offers both privacy and accessibility, combining wide-open space with a deep connection to Colorado’s Western spirit. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true quintessential mountain ranch with a legendary past and limitless future.
