Property Description

Opportunities to own property that backs directly to the San Isabel National Forest are exceptionally rare—and this 1.44-acre mountain property delivers exactly that. With direct, private access to protected wilderness, your backyard opens to thousands of acres that will never be developed, preserving privacy, views, and a connection to nature that cannot be duplicated. Built in 1971, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1,728 square feet, thoughtfully laid out to support both everyday living and relaxed mountain life. Multiple living areas, including a living room and family room, create flexible spaces to gather, unwind, and entertain. Each area features its own wood or propane stove, adding warmth, character, and comfort through every season. A forced-air furnace heats the home efficiently, while an evaporative cooling system provides relief during those rare warm summer days. The land itself is a defining feature. Carefully used and well-loved, the property includes numerous fruit trees, a chicken coop, root cellar, woodshed, and a tree house, blending practicality with charm and a sense of simple mountain living. Whether you envision gardening, raising chickens, storing harvests, or simply enjoying the outdoors, this property supports a more self-sufficient lifestyle. A detached 3-car garage offers ample space for vehicles, tools, equipment, and outdoor gear—ideal for those who value room to work, store, and create. A brand-new septic tank adds peace of mind and long-term usability. Located just off Highway 96, the property offers easy year-round access while maintaining the peace and quiet of a true mountain setting. This is a rare combination of usability and permanently protected surroundings. Homes can be built. Land like this cannot. Schedule your private tour and experience what it truly means to live alongside the forest.
