Fountain Valley Ranch is a gateway to Fort Carson Army Base and nature
A small city with mighty community pride, Fountain Valley Ranch residents treat their zip code like a badge of honor. “The place has a good small town atmosphere,” says Fountain City Councilman Gordon Rick, whose lived here for nearly 30 years after retiring from the Army. “There’s not a lot of major highways or businesses, and residents likes that. Neighbors also want everyone to feel comfortable in Fountain. One of our cornerstones is to treat everyone with dignity and respect.” Established more than 160 years ago, Fountain Valley Ranch's rural, southern location sits in between Fort Carson Army Base and hundreds of acres of nature at Bluestem Open Space. Neighbors exude patriotism, love the outdoors, and passionately care for their growing city that still feels like a small town.
Bluestem Prairie Open Space, in Fountain Valley Ranch, is a bird-watching paradise.

Ranch styles from the 1950s and newer properties to meet demand
Homes range from $320,000 to $570,000, with prices increasing further east. Ranch homes include up to three bedrooms and one bathroom with square footage capped under 1,000 square feet. Many of these properties were built in the 1950s, with a mix of well-maintained and updated features. Some homes have carports, but street parking is most common. New constructions and Contemporary Craftsmen built after 2015 include up to five bedrooms and three bathrooms across more than 2,500 square feet. These homes sit on very tight lots but but have fenced-in backyards with modest green space and back porches. Small lots are common among new subdivisions to meet the increased demand for housing; much of Fountain Valley Ranch and Colorado Springs were developed before 2000, so developers must continue to push further east to make room for new builds.
