Ruggedly beautiful and private, this property has grandiose views of Castle Mountain & Saddle Mountain that take your breath away! There are already an existing domestic well that produced 8gpm when drilled, a 1000 gal septic system, 2 animal/storage sheds, and a 35'x25' raised foundation. Property ...was involved in the High Chateau fire in 2018 and previous home burned down. Thick new growth of aspens has taken over in the areas of burned pines and fresh grass grows on the forest floors. Magnificent rock formations create a wall around the valley to the north, west, and east and provide oodles of hiking, climbing, and exploring experiences. The south is open to the sun and unforgettable views. Create a lovely new solar homestead in the protected pocket where the utilities, outbuildings, and foundation sit. Or perhaps create an inspiring camping site with an RV or trailer with hook-up to water and septic. Existing foundation may be able to be used but needs to be checked out by an engineer to see if structural integrity remains. Water line from well to foundation was replaced in 2013. This would be a great location for a dog rescue/sanctuary because there is already a conditional-use kennel permit in place that remains with the property. Would likely just need an amendment for the new owner according to Teller County Planning Dept. An exciting playground for the adventurous and independent spirit, the peace and quiet of this location is only a 40 minute drive from Woodland Park amenities, and 1 hour from Colorado Springs.
