This is a fantastic opportunity to own property in the prestigious Ruby Ranch neighborhood above Silverthorne. The home was built in 1916 and belonged to Annie (as in Annie Road in Silverthorne), they picked the best spot to build, on the leeward side of the mountain with little wind and lots of sun. The home was added on to over the years and had a major restoration in 2002, but realistically a buyer will probably want to do a complete remodel or scrape it. Lots of out buildings including historic log barn, horse stable and bunkhouse. These could be used for storage, horses and a workshop. There's a three car garage plus other storage buildings too. The main value is in the two Ruby Ranch lots (lot line has been vacated) with streams, aspen groves, mountain and valley views and lots of privacy. Surrounding the 7.5 acres is 27 acres of Ruby Ranch open space, here's a link to the plat. It's like time stood still because the Ranch harvests the meadow below the home just as Annie's family did almost 100 years ago.

The home sits on the west side of the Blue River valley above Silverthorne. In fact looking down on "town" has been a turn off to some buyers, but the seller says "in the daytime we look at the mountains, aspens, and meadows; at night we enjoy the activity of the lights in the community, like Christmas every night. Those lights also silhouette the critters in the meadow and why we enjoy dining on the porch so much - moose, elk, deer, foxes."

The property is not taxed by the Ruby Ranch Metro District, but the owner must follow the neighborhood covenants and architectural guidelines. Lots of history here, and the seller would love to pass it on to someone who would appreciate it. Here's a link to the story that was written about the home in Great Divide magazine the winter of 2002-2003. Give me a call to see this wonderful property 800-571-1091
