Land
Centennial Ranch is known for its big country, rolling, muscular landscape and wide-open views. Froze Creek lies at the base of the property, while the higher ground looks out across the valley toward the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and San Isabel National Forest. The changing elevation gives the land plenty of character, along with several possibilities for a private mountain homesite.
Improvements
This property has an old barn at the base of the mountain by the creek.
Recreation
If you are ready to get away from the heat and the fast pace of city life, this is a great place to do it. The surrounding mountains and national forest offer hiking, hunting, horseback riding, fishing and miles of country to explore. Spend your days outdoors, watch the sun go down behind the Sangres and enjoy quiet nights under Colorado’s wide-open skies.
Agriculture
With more than 35 acres, there is room for a small homestead and livestock, subject to county regulations and available water. Goats would be especially well suited to the varied, rugged terrain. The property also offers possibilities for fencing, grazing areas, a barn, livestock shelters and raised garden beds.
