THE RANCH
Breathtaking and unique ranch located at the end of a road beyond a locked gate for the ultimate peace and quiet. This beautiful 156± acre ranch has two year-round creeks, Shaw Creek and West Fork of Shaw Creek. Natural springs and vast variety of habitat makes this a mountain oasis. The wide array of plants, trees, grasses, and shrubs makes this a very unique and diverse property. The ranch is bordered by forest service land on three sides. Resident populations of trophy elk, trophy mule deer, bears, mountain lions, turkeys, and an occasional moose call this area home. Breathtaking 360 degree views of the San Juan and the Sangre de Cristo mountains. The 100+ year old homestead cabin was remodeled in 2010 to give it new life and class. A complete solar system was installed, and the property is also serviced by backup generators for the well and propane for heat. Completely off-grid. A domestic well services the property with watering for up to an acre and all domestic livestock.
