At Eagle's Nest Ranch, one is literally on top of the mountain with breathtaking views of the Continental Divide. The majestic views afforded from this 35 - acre ranch are probably the most beautiful available without being publicly owned. To the south 25 miles, Mt. Evans stands tall. Immediately to the left of Mt. Evans is Pike's Peak 85 miles away. Eastern Plains are visible east of Pike's Peak. To the right of Mt. Evans, Indian Peak's Wilderness creates a western boundary approximately 35 miles away. The serenity of Eagle's Nest Ranch invites visits from abundant natural wildlife: elk, mule deer, eagles, hummingbirds, and many more. Golden Gate Canyon State Park is less than five miles away, and White Ranch Open Space is a mere nine miles. This sturdy home includes two bedrooms, two baths, large office in the loft, and a two-car, oversized garage below. The spacious open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, huge windows, and 800 square-foot deck provide total enjoyment of the regal mountain sights around. Nightlights of Denver are an evening plus. The property includes a three-stall horse barn with separate paddocks and corrals, a 20-ton hay storage barn, and 14’ x 20’storage shed insulated and dry walled, with a concrete floor.
LOCATION
Eagle’s Nest Ranch is only a 20-minute drive to historic downtown Golden and 40 minutes from downtown Denver. This private mountain retreat is located at the end of a private, two-mile road that rises 1000+ feet within that two-mile drive. The home rests at the top of Douglas Mountain.
ACREAGE
A fine place to have horses, this ranch also has lodge-pole fencing around the pasture, along with the additional corrals and hay storage barn. The 24’ x 24’ horse barn includes a tack room and electricity. The home has a walkout basement, including two indoor/outdoor dog kennels. For fire protection and forest management 10+ acres of lodge-pole pine have been professionally thinned. There are 15 additional acres of harvestable lodge-pole pine. Rock outcroppings dot the property.
IMPROVEMENTS
Within a quarter mile of the house is a 12,000-gallon community water cistern for fire protection. The home has custom kitchen cabinets and Pergo & Tile flooring. The well is 45 gallons per minute. The home has a metal interlocking slate style roof rated for 100+ mph wind, plus it is built with 2 x 6 construction. There are upgraded wood-casement windows, including storm windows, and the glass was replaced in 2006. Radiant floor heat is built in on both levels of the home, and there is a supplemental wood-burning stove, which works along side a passive solar heating system. Along with the two barns, storage shed, corrals, and paddocks is a chicken condo, plus two dog kennels as well.
RECREATION
This property affords abundant hiking, ATV, dirt-biking, and horse-riding opportunities. Additional horse-riding trails are a short distance away, as are a multitude of other outdoor activities such as camping, fishing, rock climbing, biking, and four-wheeling, with six ski areas within an hour and a half drive.
SUMMARY
Eagle’s Nest Ranch provides views of the Continental Divide unsurpassed in beauty. This home is a perfect location for retired or home-based working people. It could also be used as an ideal weekend retreat.
