Own the Colorado dream from Spirit Ranch, four parcels totaling 52 acres, featuring river frontage, rolling meadows, horse pastures and a custom home, all embracing the incredible local scenery. This is an extraordinary opportunity to preserve untouched wilderness or create the ultimate Western compound. The special acreage of the ranch was thoughtfully compiled over the years and presents a multitude of possibilities. Additional homes or amenity buildings can be constructed, or the separate parcels can be sold individually. The main residence rests on the 14 acre center lot, blending southern farmhouse style charm into the mountain landscape, surrounded by water elements and Gamble Oak clusters. A picturesque drive approaches the four-bedroom home, lined by mature trees and white fencing, set against a backdrop of red rock cliffs. The comfortable floor plan features a main level primary, open kitchen and living area, and a custom heated sun porch with retractable screen walls, that can be enjoyed year-round, even through the winter months. Benefitting from extensive water rights, the incredible landscape design incorporates flowing streams, a large pond, and waterfalls that can be seen and heard from the house. Experience all the advantages of the outdoors from the private backyard with lush plantings, manicured lawns, a built in stone fire pit, and hot tub. The two lots on the upvalley side of the property each offer the ability to build a single family home up to 5,750 sqft or other amenities such as a recreation barn, fitness facility or pool house. Lot 7a has open pastures with views towards Aspen Mountain, 7b has river frontage, and Lot 8b, which borders the homesite to the west, is a buffer piece that cannot be developed, providing additional privacy and adding to the expanse of the Ranch. Neighboring public lands and the Roaring Fork River, Spirit Ranch provides instant access to many outdoor pursuits - from horseback riding to fly fishing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, hiking, and world class cycling. Drive only minutes to the Aspen/Snowmass ski resorts and nearby various private clubs for golf, tennis and more, and in warmer months, the adjoining Rio Grande trail is a great way to travel by bike to Aspen or downtown Basalt. A pastoral setting primed to customize for future generations to appreciate the natural beauty and recreation of the Aspen valley.
