Property Description
Gold Creek Ranch embodies the kind of Rocky Mountain lifestyle most people only dream about. Set on 55+ acres of private, usable land, this one-of-a-kind Colorado ranch offers the space, freedom, and independent lifestyle people are craving—but rarely find so close to a town core. A long, winding driveway brings you home to a nearly 3,000 sq. ft. raised ranch, perfectly positioned to capture warm southern sunlight and sweeping views of Pike National Forest, Payne Peak, and the South Platte River Valley below. Enjoy 1,614 linear feet of privately accessed, world-class fly fishing on one of Colorado's best rivers, the South Platte, which borders the property to the North. Down the road, the Pike National Forest trailheads open the door to hunting, hiking, and exploring thousands of acres of pristine wilderness. Expect to see deer, elk, fox, coyotes, bear, and bald eagles right on the property. Inside, the 3-bedroom, 4-bath layout is built for gathering and relaxation. Gather around the wood-burning fireplace, spread out in the full-sized dining area, and have a coffee in the vaulted sunroom that keeps you connected to the outdoors year-round. A nearly 900 sq. ft. unfinished basement offers the chance to customize your own ideal sanctuary. This property isn’t just a home—it’s a working lifestyle. With irrigation and agricultural rights, a fully equipped greenhouse, garden beds, and open pasture, you can raise animals, board up to 16 horses, grow your own food, and live how you've always wanted. There’s more than enough room for expansion, with a 1.5-acre gently sloped site ready for a barn or new home. Gold Creek Ranch features a three-car garage with workshop setup, a large RV garage, and equipment to help you manage the land year-round. Properties with this acreage, views, and connection to nature don’t come along often. You’ve been waiting for the right place to build your legacy at a reasonable price. Gold Creek Ranch is it.
