About This Home

This exceptional property boasts seven patented mining claims, encompassing 66.4 acres of pristine Colorado wilderness. With exclusive deeded road access on Austin Trail, a locked National Forest gate keeps all other motor vehicles away, ensuring your privacy and seclusion are guaranteed. This property is situated near the revered Browns Canyon National Monument and offers unparalleled access to nature's wonders. Step into the charming 832 sq ft cabin, crafted entirely of solid wood, featuring custom pine D-logs, aspen and pine tongue-and-groove walls and ceilings, and finished aspen banisters. Two bedrooms, one full bathroom, a roomy loft, a full kitchen, and a living room combine for a comfortable space for you and the family. Cozy up next to the wood fireplace in the wintertime with great year-round access. Embrace off-grid living with the Sun Tracker solar system, and a very productive domestic well. The well permitting allows for two additional buildings to be connected to the well, as well as the watering of livestock. Indulge in outdoor living on the wrap-around porch, relax on the suspended porch swing, or gather around the custom fire circle below the cabin for nights under the stars. The cabin offers iconic Rocky Mountain scenery, with clear views of the Collegiate Peaks. Delve into the area's rich history with access to multiple retired mines, including the Red Fox Mine, boasting over 100 yards tunneled into the mountainside. Gold medal fishing on the nearby Arkansas River and incredible hunting access to the surrounding National Forest within Colorado Game Management Unit 57. The mixed habitat hosts abundant wildlife, including elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, bears, turkeys, mountain lions, and more. Enjoy nearby mountain biking to world-renowned rafting, or relaxation time at the natural hot springs all within the Salida area. Whether you seek a weekend escape or year-round living, this property offers the perfect blend of tranquility and adventure.
