Evans Ranch - Colorado, Evergreen

Evans Ranch is located just 9 miles west of Evergreen, Colorado- a picturesque foothills community that offers easy access to downtown Denver plus boutique shopping, restaurants and services. The ranch is approximately an hour’s drive from both Denver and major ski areas, and is its own nature reserve. This "end of the road" sanctuary is nestled into wilderness o­n the flanks of 14,264 foot Mount Evans and adjoins Arapaho National Forest, Mount Goliath Natural Area and Mount Evans State Wildlife Area. Snow-capped mountain peaks, creeks, meadows and forests of the ranch and surrounding area are much as they were over 130 years ago when John Evans, the first governor of Colorado, founded the ranch. Conservation easements o­n the ranch and adjoining areas insure that the pristine setting will always remain as it is today.

The six-year-old 6,565± sf stone and timber main home with an oversized four-car garage has an old-world feel and overlooks the trout stream. This impressive home is designed for casual living and elegant entertaining. The use of recovered antique beams and floor planks from an historic Denver landmark enhance its mountain lodge ambiance. The home includes four bedrooms plus a guest apartment wing, three fireplaces, seven baths, a large family room, formal dining room, grand entrance gallery, chef’s kitchen with top-of-the line appliances, luxury master suite, a study and an office. The home is equipped with underground utilities and modern electronic and mechanical systems including a computerized backup generator.
