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.
