Welcome to Elk Ridge Ranch - a magnificent mountain estate now offered at 400k less than the previous asking price. Perched along the Continental Divide with breathtaking views of Colorado’s highest peaks, this distinctive 48+ acre ranch bordering the Pike National Forest is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cement your mountain legacy. Miles of private recreational trails surround an exquisite, 5000 sq ft custom log home plus barn, workshop, and caretaker’s ADU. Featuring hand-hewn bristlecone accents, bespoke finishes, and sweeping views of four 14,000 ft peaks from every window, the Ranch House offers alpine luxury brimming with western character. A river rock fireplace and floor to ceiling windows anchor the great room, while 5 bedrooms and 6 baths offer plentiful space for guests. Originally designed with events in mind, entertain with ease from the lower-level billiards hall and expansive, multilevel deck. Immerse yourself in the great outdoors on private trails that connect the Ranch to National Forest public land for high-alpine recreation and unparalleled scenery. The acreage rises through healthy spruce forests before opening at treelike to wildflower meadows and ancient bristlecone groves. Spend winters making fresh tracks down exclusive ski runs, sledding hills, and snowmobile trails, and summers hiking, biking, and off-roading on your own land. The Barn features an oversized RV bay, large workshop, and a spacious, 2-level apartment. The charming ADU features a full-size kitchen, bathroom, and upstairs bedroom with rustic accents. Situated in Park Co with rental license availability, yet only 10.5 mi to Breckenridge, opportunities like this are one-of-a-kind. Visionary owners could consider a return to the property’s historical use as an event venue, operate as a backcountry lodge, or maintain the estate as a Colorado legacy home. Do not miss your chance to own this remarkable mountain property, and elevate your lifestyle to spectacular new heights.
