Description
Where the forest breathes, time lingers, and the trail never ends-this is more than land, it's a legacy. Set in the foothills of Sedalia, this 11-acre homestead offers rare backdoor access to Pike National Forest and 500 miles of the Colorado Trail. Whether it's horseback riding, snowshoeing, or watching wildlife sip from the spring-fed pond, this is where Colorado comes alive. With TWO homes offering 5 beds, 4 baths, and 3,538 sf combined, it's ideal for multigenerational living, retreat-style use, or simply welcoming others to enjoy the quiet. From gathering fruit and eggs to fishing, rafting, or a night around the fire-this is pure joy, with Castle Rock 30 minutes away.
The 1882 Cabin-rumored to have hosted Theodore Roosevelt-has been thoughtfully restored, blending original hand-hewn logs, artisan touches, and modern upgrades. The kitchen features a handcrafted copper island and bas-relief backsplash, made by a renowned metalsmith, and a walk-in pantry includes a commercial fridge/freezer. The primary suite offers a private patio, fireplace, and ensuite bath. 2 additional bedrooms, secondary bath, loft, and den provide extra sleeping space. A spacious log-beamed porch offers peaceful east-facing views for quiet mornings.
The modern Carriage House adds 1,720 sf and can function as a single home, 2 apartments, or bunkrooms-ideal for generating income. 2 kitchens, 2 beds, 2 baths, a loft, and large studio space offer flexibility. A1 zoning allows for a third residence, with power already in place.
Livestock lovers will appreciate rich meadows, hydrants, heated stock tank hookups, a 4-stall log barn, loafing shed, and ample vehicle parking. Two artesian springs feed a gravity-fed water system. Upgrades include high-speed internet, heat-wrapped water lines, buried propane tanks, and a 1,700-gallon cistern with filtration. No HOA or covenants. Just a place to play, where the wild still whispers and the stars still shine. No trespassing without appointment.
