Description

Nestled in the rugged beauty of Colorado's Front Range, a hidden gem awaits its next steward. Picture this: a sprawling 30.69-acre canvas of untamed wilderness, where nature's artistry meets human ingenuity. Just a stone's throw from the charming town of Lyons-2.5 miles to be precise-lies a property that whispers tales of earth's ancient past and promises a future limited only by your imagination. At the heart of this rocky paradise sits a family-run flagstone quarry, a testament to the land's rich geological heritage. This 9-acre permitted area is not just a quarry; it's a sculptor's dream, with three distinct pits carved into the earth like colossal amphitheaters. Imagine standing at the edge of a pit, marveling at the 7-10 foot exposed flagstone outcrops-layers of time compressed into stone, waiting to be transformed into patios, walkways, and architectural marvels. Recent geological assessments have unveiled a treasure trove beneath your feet: approximately 194,000 tons of flagstone (150,000 after accounting for waste), a bounty valued at a staggering $2.25 million. But this property offers more than just monetary value. Beyond the quarry lies 20 acres of pristine land, perched on the precipice of Stone Canyon. With a Boulder County Letter of Buildability in hand, these 20 acres are a blank slate for your dreams-a place to reconnect with the raw beauty of nature. Access to this slice of heaven is via Stone Canyon Dr., a winding path that seems to leave the worries of the world behind with each turn. This is more than a property; it's a legacy, a chance to own a piece of Colorado's geological wonder, to be a custodian of the earth's treasures, and to craft a future as solid as the stone beneath your feet. Whether you're an entrepreneur eyeing the quarry's potential, a nature enthusiast seeking solitude, or a visionary looking to create something truly extraordinary, this land calls to those who dare to dream in stone and sky.
