Silver View Ranch

Beneath the whispering pines, pressed by aspen quaking in the cool mountain breeze, is the spectacular Silver View Ranch. This 161 acre parcel lies in the Cimarron Valley, between Silver Jack's shimmering waters and the Gold Medal, Black Canyon of the Gunnison. A mountain paradise, this ranch is 50% treed, has two gorgeous ponds, Stewart Creek frontage, and over a half mile of the Cimarron Canal, itself fishable! With year-round, county-maintained access, an adjoining 1,000,000-acre National Forest, and a masterful log home. The ranch is an all-season montane getaway. Whether relaxing in the 2,980 SF (6 bed / 4.5 bath) residence, stalking a bull in rut (GMU 65), or star-gazing above the crisp December skyline, the Silver View Ranch is a platinum tier property in a pristine location. Montrose Regional Airport is 37 miles away, the famous Cimarrons are a single step, and decades of enjoyment, on and around the property, is close at hand! On property is a masterfully built, timeless, log home featuring granite counters, hardwood & tile flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows, stone accents, a spacious layout and ornate grand room. The master suite features its own private entertainment center, walk-in custom shower, and a clawfoot tub like those of Butch Cassidy's day. Throughout the building is a "residential lodge" motif- complete with a saUna and landscaping that rivals any Swiss chateau. These amenities are further complemented by a 2-car garage, partial basement/mother-in-law suite, and three guest bedsrooms, each with its own en-suite bath. For year-round living or hosting a seasonal gathering, this home is incredibly well suited. Beyond the obvious on-property recreation (GMU 65, fishable canal, multiple ponds, mature, sub-alpine forest) is adjoining national forest, untold miles of fishable trout waters (four high-quality rivers and creeks within a 10-minute drive), Silver Jack & Fish Creek Reservoirs, alongside the West Fork- made famous in John Wayne's 1969 classic "True Grit." This is a Goldilocks area surrounded by the high country home to elk, bear, moose, and turkey; yet easily accessible, on-grid, and connected to the broader country by Colorado's fastest growing airport! With hues of silver as the moon tucks beneath the San Juans, a Goldilocks location, and outstanding craftsmanship, this gentleman's ranch is in a class all its own.
