51.91Acres
A unique 51-acre lot among the homesites at the Murphy Larsen Ranch, Lot 3 boasts massive vistas over the rolling open space and a ridge that is home to a large elk community. The building site is mostly level with a pocket of aspens and some oak brush providing natural shade and privacy for a mountain home. Water is supplied by the ranch's private water system. Underground electricity and high-speed internet have been brought to the lot. At the edge of a mature aspen grove, the snow-capped mountains can be seen between the trees in the distance. The open meadows to the west lead up to Pete’s cabin, a historic one-room building that is the midway point along the trail to the national forest. Follow the trails from the homesite directly to the cabin and enjoy the expansive views of the ranch, elk river, and continental divide. The Clark Store, just 4 miles down the road, is a one-stop shop for a quick snack, necessities, fishing tackle, ice cream, or a homemade meal from the deli. At the base of Hahns Peak, the Steamboat Lake Outpost offers fuel, dining, outdoor adventures, and live music and events. Steamboat Springs, just 17 miles down scenic Elk River Road, hosts local businesses, shops, and restaurants. With a vibrant community, local eateries, and world-class skiing, Steamboat is one of the country's most attractive destination resorts. The high-speed broadband internet on the ranch makes it easy to work remotely and a convenient drive to the Yampa Valley Regional Airport offers year-round access to domestic and international travel. Situated in the northwest corner of the state and nestled near the Zirkel Wilderness area above the free-flowing Elk River, the Murphy-Larsen Ranch is a tranquil mountain escape from the busy world.
