Description
Presenting A Bar Ranch in Douglas County Colorado, a front range legacy ranch that encompasses all the amenities of a conveniently located, highly improved, secluded ranch in a highly desirable area. Picture yourself in a private protected valley on 276 pristine acres with a live water creek, irrigation rights, pine covered hills to explore and producing hay meadowsEscape to A Bar Ranch, a 276-acre legacy property in the sought-after Cherry Creek Valley of Douglas County, Colorado. This private, protected valley offers a serene and secluded lifestyle with the convenience of being just an hour from both Denver and Colorado Springs. The varied terrain of the ranch features pine-covered ridges, rolling hills, and level hay meadows, all with incredible views of the Douglas County hills and the majestic Rocky Mountains. This private ranch is situated on 276 plus gorgeous acres in the coveted Cherry Creek Valley along East Cherry Creek. The terrain varies from pine covered ridges to level sub-irrigated hay meadows to creek bottom to rolling hills and meadows. The views are incredible in each direction of the rolling hills of Douglas County and the Rocky Mountains to the west. East Cherry Creek runs the length of the ranch for 3/4 of a mile. Grasses range from native grass species such as Blue Grama and Buffalo grass to improved grasses, such as Brome. The creek bottom is lined with Cottonwood trees and the hills with mature Ponderosa Pines. The hills have natural rock outcroppings. The location is very private yet it boasts easy access to both Denver Metro and Colorado Springs Colorado. The land is a haven for outdoor recreation and wildlife. With East Cherry Creek running the length of the property, live water is a key feature, supporting a rich ecosystem. The homestead area of the ranch includes a lovingly maintained turn of the century farm house with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Other functional buildings included near the farm house include two shop buildingsincluding a 66x 24 building with 10 ft overhead doors and a 40x50 building with 12 ft overhead doors, a kitchen, bathroom and loft , a historic 48x48 dairy barn that has been partially converted to comfortable office space, a 30x80 equipment shed and a hay storage barn. There are plenty of corrals and pens to livestock. A Bar Ranch boasts Trophy Mule Deer, Elk, Antelope, Turkey and various small game, birds and predators. Elk tags are over the counter plains elk tags. The elk sign on the ranch at the time of listing may be the most sign per acre of any property that I've had the privilege of touring. This makes the fall of the year a slam dunk for Elk hunters. The ranch is in Game Management Unit 104 and its a draw area for Deer and Pronghorn. The ranch has the facilities for equine recreation and would make a great destination for any equine discipline. The ranch harvests hay on 185 acres of dryland and sub-irrigated meadows. The balance is grazing land. The ranch holds rights on the East Cherry Creek Alluvium to irrigate and has an irrigation pond and irrigation equipment, though not currently in use. Water rights include irrigation rights to the alluvium of East Cherry Creek. The rights are an 1881 water right from Alderman Ditch, 2.5 cfs diverted from East Cherry Creek , Priority number 132, with an average annual diversion of 86 to 131.5 acre feet. The ranch also hold the deep water rights from 5 aquifers totaling 697.6 acre feet per year. Mineral rights are to be included, if any are held by the owners. Douglas County averages about 19 acres of rain annually and has fairly mild winters, though it can snow 60+ inches annually, but with an average of 245 annual days of sunshine and varying winter temperatures, the snow doesn't stay for long. The area is rich in ranching history and was highly desired for large ranchers due to its good high protein grazing and favorable climate. Feed was plentiful and markets were near. This ranch echoes the past and is like a step back in time with its lush pastures, good winter protection and access to good and plentiful water resources. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a ranch that perfectly balances seclusion, convenience, and luxury. Whether you are drawn to the land for its exceptional wildlife and hunting, the productive hay meadows, or the custom home for its refined comfort and breathtaking views, A Bar Ranch offers a rare and complete package. Located in the highly sought after East Cherry Creek valley in Douglas County Colorado, the ranch is conveniently located within one hour of both Denver and Colorado Springs. Denver International Airport is 58 miles door to gate or, if you prefer, Colorado Springs Airport is 32 miles south and serves many major cities.

Each with its own services and unique culture. Douglas County is popular for its front range mountain views, wide open spaces, outdoor recreation and hiking trails.
