AN OPPORTUNITY TO CULTIVATE
Your Dream Homestead! This property, initially utilized for wheat, barley, and oats farming, seamlessly transitioned into the Routt County Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) in 1986.

The tranquil landscape is also shared with antelope, deer, and elk.

Adding to its allure, the property boasts a power line and supply to the original Homestead, offering substantial savings for future construction endeavors. The Sellers generously include all mineral rights, some extending to adjacent properties, with past oil and gas leases proving to be lucrative, according to the owner. Encompassed by open farmland, the 333 acres offer breathtaking panoramic views to the north, spanning Bears Ears, the Hayden Valley, and northeast towards the Steamboat Springs area. The entire west side is bordered by CR 59A, providing direct access to various special sites. A recent survey has been conducted, and corners are set and flagged. Older structures, granaries, and silos on the property echo a bygone era, yet hold the promise of a future in new agricultural operations, hunting, rural living, or as a continued peaceful refuge for those seeking the unique qualities offered by this property – now available for the first time in a considerable span.

NEVER BEFORE ON THE MARKET,
Pleasant Valley Ranch is located just 10 miles south of Steamboat Springs and consists of 257 forested acres bordering 1M+ acres of public land. The pavement and regular county road maintenance end at the north entrance to the ranch, providing easy year-round access in one of Steamboats most sought-after locations. Natural beauty, world-class skiing, and some of the best public fishing in the state define this aptly named, idyllic valley. The ranch consists of several ridges and two spring-fed draws situated between the Yampa River corridor and Blacktail Mountain. A few pockets of aspens and small open parks interrupt dense stands of evergreens on the north-facing slopes and Gambel oaks on the south-facing slopes. Numerous building sites take advantage of views of the Yampa River and meadows in the foreground with the 530-acre Lake Catamount and Steamboat ski mountain beyond. Pleasant Valley, south of the lake, opens up to a postcard-like setting with broad hay fields flanking the Yampa. The valley is still home to the family that homesteaded in the late 1800s. The rich history of livestock ranching and hay production is alive and well today and on display every summer when bales of hay dot the meadows framed by dark-timbered slopes. The ranch is bordered on two sides by federal land; the Yampa River flows through the adjacent BLM land for over 1.6 miles, includes the confluence of Sarvis Creek, and is fewer than 100 from the ranch. This segment of the Yampa is downstream of Stagecoach Reservoir which has outstanding tailwater fishing for another 1.5 miles. The surrounding national forest has miles of trails and numerous high-mountain lakes and streams. Pleasant Valley Ranch has end-of-the-road access, is adjacent to one of the finest stretches of river in Colorado (without the high premium commanded by private water frontage), and is convenient to world-class skiing in a wildly scenic setting. *Adjoining river parcel also available*
STEAMBOAT SPRINGS $6,900,000
SITUATED WHERE A NARROW,
granite canyon opens into a beautiful valley, this Pleasant Valley Yampa River ranch consists of 118 acres in one of Steamboat’s most scenic areas. The ranch has approximately 2,500 feet of both sides of the Yampa River plus an additional 850+/- feet of shared river on the north end. The 10-mile drive from town leads past two 18-hole golf courses, through the exclusive Lake Catamount neighborhood with its 530-acre private lake, and through the historic ranches of the appropriately named Pleasant Valley. Two tent platforms on the east side of the private bridge are tucked in the tall pines and overlook the river. The land has a picturesque meadow flanked by an aspen grove and a cottonwood-lined river corridor. It is a spectacular setting in a spectacular part of the Rocky Mountains. The southern end of the property adjoins public land that holds an additional 1.5 miles of tailwater fishing below Stagecoach Dam. Stagecoach State Park, just 3 miles south of the property, has an 820-acre reservoir, marina, campgrounds, and trail system. Below the dam, relatively consistent water temperatures keep the river open (and fishable) in the winter. March fishing is a thrill when large rainbows from Lake Catamount are spawning. The cold, clear water keeps the browns active and feeding during the warmer months. This stretch of the Yampa is in an alpine setting with heavily forested hillsides in a rugged canyon that has escaped development. The ranch shares a boundary with a federally designated wilderness area; there is direct access to 44,000 acres of roadless, pristine land with miles of trails and streams. Steamboat Ski Area is in the final stages of a $200M expansion and improvement project and, when complete, will be the second largest ski resort in Colorado. The property is close to town, adjacent to a giant swath of public land, and enjoys a phenomenal stretch of private fishing. *An adjoining 257-acre parcel is also available*
