This 40 acre horse farm shares about a quarter of a mile of border with the Mueller State Park/Dome Rock Wildlife Area. Several huge rock formations form a stunning backdrop for the lovely home and prvate horse facility. The 1,200 sq. ft. 1 BR, 1 Ba home sits over a concrete-floored part of the barn. A see-thru fireplace provides a very cozy atmosphere in both the living room and the kitchen. And a large deck on the west side of the house provides great views of the outdoor arena, rock formations, aspen groves and pines, and beautiful Colorado sunsets. If more living space is desired, the concrete-floored part of the barn under the home could become a walk-out lower level of living space. Two rooms in this area are already heated with the same ductwork as the home, and since the stall fronts are not structural support, they could be easily removed to provide any number of floorplans in an undivided 25 X 28 foot section.
The remainder of the barn includes a 40 X 52 ft. indoor training arena, and 4 horse stalls with separate outdoor runs. The runs connect with a fenced passageway that leads to a full-sized outdoor arena. A spring, grassy meadow, a small stock pond and numerous riding trails complete this special property. And should you prefer to build a larger home and keep the home over the barn as a guest house, there are several nice building sites with gorgeous views.
This property can be purchased with 40 acres for $499,000, or with 80 acres (sharing nearly a half mile border with Mueller State Park/Dome Rock Wildlife Area) for $699,000. Or the 40 acres north of the home can be purchased separately for $299,000. The vacant (north) 40 acres has even better access to the Mueller State Park, which has more than 50 miles of trails to hike or ride. It also has several lovely building sites.
Wildlife in the area include many mule deer and elk, and bighorn sheep can sometimes be seen standing on the rock formation just behind the house. The wildlife area also has foxes, bear and mountain lions, so this home is a unique wilderness experience, and yet it is only about 2 miles from paved road, a half hour from grocery shopping in Woodland Park, and less than an hour's drive from Colorado Springs.
