One Of A Kind Ranch Home On 10.7 Acres with Fenced Horse Pasture and Run - In Barn.
Magnificent dining room Mountain Views overlooking the Wet Mountain Valley in Custer County Colorado is now offered to the market by the original owner.
This historic cattle ranching community near Westcliffe, has long been a Hollywood favorite western filming location due to the valley’s magnificent towering mountain range.
Home is set against the backdrop of the Sangre de Christo Mountain Range.
This unique home’s overall design and layout is based on personal conversations the original designer had with movie legend, John Wayne. Home was specifically built to compliment the local area’s 1880’s cattle ranching history with its exterior style and interior’s elegant custom “Western Ranch Victorian” trim out. Over 6,000 board feet of Native Colorado red spruce was specifically cut and milled to create the period woodwork style used throughout the home.
Unique Features:
Home is constructed with more expensive commercial materials and engineering techniques to create the features for this potential western movie set structure. Quality upgraded materials and mechanical systems were used throughout the home’s construction at added extra cost, incorporated for a a more solidly built and dependable structure, not common in the residential construction industry. Maintenance accessibility was at the forefront of planning to avoid damage to the home’s handcrafted woodwork. Designed and built as a super insulated structure for energy efficiency at its inception, the home’s rooms and ceilings are also soundproofed, making the home exceptionally quiet and comfortable.
Home is being sold fully furnished, complete with John Wayne movie memorabilia and 1880’s period antiques, authentic Victorian chandeliers, lighting fixtures, decor and furnishings that were specifically chosen to recreate a true 1880’s movie set reproduction.
The initial phase of the home’s finish out is complete! However, the home’s structure was originally designed with additional interior expansion in mind, totaling over 2,000 sq ft. Extra large walk-in attic above the oversized garage and workshop is ideal for additional bedroom, craft or hobby room with mountain views. The cement basement floor, is plumbed for a full bathroom and additional apartment living space is ready to be developed to one’s own personal desires and taste!
