Description
Rist Canyon Ranch is a rare combination of beauty, productivity, and proximity. Whether you're managing hay production, riding trails through National Forest, or simply enjoying the pond, this property is pound for pound one of the best close in ranches along the front range. Ranches of this size, quality, and location seldom come to market .Just 20 minutes west of downtown Fort Collins, Rist Canyon Ranch offers an exceptional blend of ranch functionality on 564 acres of prime mountain ground. A charming 1,834 sq. ft., 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, the property also includes a large shop, and well-equipped barn. Towering stands of healthy forest-featuring Ponderosa pine, Douglas fir, spruce, and aspen-surround the open meadows, creating a stunning setting that borders National Forest on two sides. With abundant water, wildlife, and improvements already in place, this property provides all the essentials of a working ranch, combined with the tranquility of a private mountain retreat. At the heart of the property are expansive irrigated hay meadows, nourished by a network of adjudicated springs and a year-round stream. Old-growth and new-growth timber with a thriving understory of wildflowers, native grasses, and forbs. Wildlife is abundant, including elk, mule deer, moose, bear, and turkey, offering outstanding hunting opportunities. A large spring-fed pond, stocked with trout. Located just 20 minutes from the ranch, Fort Collins is consistently ranked among the top places to live in the U.S. Known for its vibrant downtown, strong sense of community, and access to outdoor recreation, the city offers a unique blend of small-town charm and modern amenities. With its proximity to town yet peaceful seclusion, the ranch could serve as a comfortable year-round residence or a perfect family retreat to escape and enjoy the outdoors. Ranches of this size, quality, and location seldom come to market.
