Property Description

Behold 450 spectacular acres in the shadow of majestic Mt. Sopris. Welcome to Turnabout Ranch! Neighbors include elk, deer, turkey, grouse and bald eagles. Boasting 360-degree views of the Elk Mountain range, the Crown, Huntsman Ridge and Sunlight Mountain, this former world-class cattle operation retains rare grazing permits for access to adjacent public lands. Hay and alfalfa are still grown and cut on the property, thanks to significant water rights as well as the ranch's extensive ditch and underground irrigation system. Turnabout Ranch is also teed up for all manner of equestrian disciplines. The ranch is uniquely entitled to allow a 40, 000 square foot equestrian center! Approvals are locked in and and include a 20, 000 square foot indoor riding arena, a 16, 000 square foot 24-stall horse barn, and a 4, 000 square foot indoor round pen. The existing main residence can be redeveloped or replaced up to 12, 000 square feet. Three (3) additional home sites can accommodate up to 7, 000 square feet of FAR, all without the use of TDR's!! Gated and private, yet just a short drive to shops and restaurants in thriving Carbondale. Gold Medal fishing, world class skiing, downtown Aspen and two airports are all right down the road. This ranch was legendary in its heyday and will be again with the next owner's grit and determination. The legacy of the West, as you envision it, awaits!
