Inspired by conversations between the home's designer and John Wayne during the 1970s, this remarkable residence was created to reflect the character, warmth, and timeless style associated with Wayne and the American West. Perched above gently sloping, fertile acreage in Colorado's historic Wet Mountain Valley, the home captures spectacular panoramic views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The property is horse-ready, featuring approximately 7 fenced acres of pasture along with a 3-stall run-in barn and equipment room-an exceptional setting for horses, livestock, or those seeking the Colorado ranch lifestyle. Designed to recreate the elegance of an 1880s Victorian Western ranch home while offering modern conveniences, the residence is rich with authentic character. Handcrafted woodwork and detailed trim are found throughout, complemented by period antique furnishings, electrified antique-style oil chandeliers and lamps, and an impressive collection of John Wayne memorabilia-all included with the sale. At the heart of the home is a dramatic grand mantled fireplace, flanked by soaring, ceiling-height bookcases that create a stately focal point in the main living area. A unique multi-directional main-level floor plan provides convenient access throughout the home, while the banquet-sized dining room showcases breathtaking mountain views and provides an unforgettable setting for entertaining. The home's decor evokes the atmosphere of John Wayne's classic later Western ranch films, creating a property unlike anything else on the market. From the historic-inspired architecture and furnishings to the horse acreage and commanding Sangre de Cristo Mountain views, every element celebrates the spirit of the Old West. ## Location - **Address:** 85 Excelsior Road, Silver Cliff, CO 81252 - **County:** Custer - **Coordinates:** 38.144679, -105.364685 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=38.144679,-105.364685 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Jackie Shepherd - **Brokerage:** UC WAPITI RANCH REALTY & AUCTION LLC - **Phone:** 2145775421 - **Broker Phone:** 7197839052 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/85-Excelsior-Rd_Silver-Cliff_CO_81252_M27396-97431?f=listhub&s=RGARCO&m=8767152&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2757081921r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f4127481609r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f735514876r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f1575846454r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f4155702889r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2617909698r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3054923446r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f366728482r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2328216829r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2447312298r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2475682023r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2356692508r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3245630340r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f1114953274r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f435770320r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3197977197r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f904772984r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f4287508137r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2704731431r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3787749534r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3917107474r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f1857417104r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2498578671r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3124406575r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2809565378r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f122180222r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f1131689924r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f4153486580r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 29](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f4200464306r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 30](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f4227419669r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 31](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2515407410r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 32](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f910285621r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 33](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f1386415874r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 34](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f3447563183r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 35](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f1786577240r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 36](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f2206557801r.jpg) ![85 Excelsior Road - Photo 37](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7c0712627bd60f2223afbc84b76010d7l-f140017832r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 8767152 | **Updated:** 2026-09-03 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Royal Gorge Association of REALTORS®.
