If you’ve been dreaming of owning a slice of Wyoming paradise with breathtaking mountain views and modern amenities, the upcoming absolute auction of the Oleson Ranchette might be your perfect opportunity. This beautifully maintained property near Beulah, Wyoming, is going to auction with no reserve, meaning it will sell to the highest bidder regardless of price.
What Makes This Property Special?
Nestled in the scenic Black Hills of northeast Wyoming, this 59-acre ranchette offers the rare combination of privacy, functionality, and stunning natural beauty. The property sits perfectly positioned between the Bear Lodge Mountains to the west and Crow Peak to the southeast, providing panoramic views that will take your breath away every single day.
The Home: Spacious Contemporary Living
Built in 2002, the main residence is an impressive 4,898-square-foot contemporary home that’s anything but ordinary. With five bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms spread across three stories, there’s room for everyone. The home features:
• A massive 1,120-square-foot three-car garage with electric doors
• A 961-square-foot deck perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in those mountain views
• Two gas fireplaces for cozy Wyoming winters
• Modern whole-home sound system with Paradigm ceiling speakers
• Hickory cabinets and granite countertops in the main kitchen
• A fully equipped lower-level kitchen and living quarters (previously rented out for additional income)
• Water softener and reverse osmosis system
Security and Privacy
The entire property is surrounded by a six-foot chain-link fence with an electric automatic drive-through gate, complete with battery backup. Over the years, the owners have planted an impressive 1,400 trees, creating natural privacy screens and enhancing the property’s beauty while providing wildlife habitat.
For the Equestrian Enthusiast
Horse lovers will appreciate the thoughtfully designed equestrian facilities, including:
• 24’ x 32’ horse barn with attached 6’ x 32’ lean-to
• Dedicated tack room
• Small corral
• Water access at the barn
• Additional 12’ x 16’ storage shed
The property has successfully supported a small number of horses and, during wet years, has produced up to 40 large round bales of hay.
Water Resources
Wyoming ranchers know that water is gold, and this property delivers. A 1,760-foot well drilled in 2002, powered by a three-horsepower submersible pump, provides reliable water throughout the property. With approximately six hydrants in the yard, six more outside of it, and a six-foot stock tank in the pasture, water distribution is exceptional.
