Alysha Ranson, Galles Properties, C:,,: What if 35.76 acres were only the beginning? This secluded Alpine Lakes Ranch property borders the San Juan National Forest, with BLM land beyond, creating direct access to an enormous stretch of Colorado backcountry from your own property.

For hunters, this is Colorado GMU 78, where you'll find big game like elk, deer, and bear. Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the setting is made for buyers who would rather have trails, wildlife and open space for neighbors. Follow the nearby trail into the timber and toward Mesa Cortado, explore the surrounding public lands, ride from home, or hunt without first loading up the truck.

The property itself includes usable ground for horses and recreation plus plenty of space between you and the rest of the world. The 2,894-square-foot home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with an open, comfortable layout. Vaulted ceilings and large windows bring the setting inside, while a wood stove creates a natural gathering place.

The spacious kitchen features granite countertops and a large island, and covered outdoor living areas provide a front-row seat to the peace and quiet. An oversized detached two-car garage, Starlink internet and year-round road maintenance add practicality.

The current owners have also completed significant improvements, including fire mitigation, drainage work, fresh interior paint, new carpet and lighting, a new water pump, and crawlspace improvements. This isn't about simply owning a house on acreage. It's about having a private Colorado basecamp with the San Juan National Forest essentially out your back door.
