Escape to Colorado's high-country wilderness with this exceptional 38-acre mountain homesite at The Ranches at Elk Reserve on Glade Park. Just an easy and scenic 18-mile drive from the Grand Valley, this property offers the rare combination of privacy, cooler mountain temperatures, and abundant wildlife habitat without sacrificing convenient year-round access. Surrounded by expansive views, mature trees, and a natural wetland area that draws wildlife throughout the seasons, this property is ideally suited for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and anyone seeking a true Western lifestyle retreat. Elk and mule deer are frequently seen in the area, along with other native wildlife, making this an outstanding recreational basecamp or future mountain residence. Underground electric has already been installed to preserve the natural beauty while keeping modern conveniences close at hand. A roughed-in driveway leads toward several potential building sites with panoramic vistas and excellent privacy. For buyers seeking even more room to roam, the adjoining parcel is also available and includes a gravel drive and cleared homesite, creating an opportunity to own more than 77 contiguous acres (see MLS# 20255325).
