If your neighbors are getting a bit too neighborly and the traffic in front of your house makes you feel like watching a parade, perhaps it’s time to consider moving out a bit farther from town.
On Glade Park, it can be difficult to see the neighbor’s house from yours and the only traffic coming down your road may be someone you know and have invited for a visit.
At Little Park Ranches, 15 home sites are hidden in the canyons, hills and trees near Colorado National Monument. The 526-acre development was introduced a decade ago, and Sharon Vaughn with Coldwell Banker Homeowners Realty has a listing for one vacant lot and two existing homes in the area, which are accessed by a security gate.
“We’ve had a few showings,” said Vaughn, who hopes that having an open house at both homes on Sunday, Feb. 12, will convince buyers to make the 20-minute drive to see all three properties.
The drive up Little Park Road takes visitors past the popular Bureau of Land Management Bangs Canyon staging area, where enthusiasts can hike, bike, bring their horses, bring their four-wheelers or practice their canyoneering skills.
The owners of the 35-acre vacant lot, which sits outside the gated portion of the subdivision, are willing to negotiate, but have set the price at $124,900. Electricity and phone are available at the lot, but there is no water or natural gas available. Some homeowners in the area have been able to drill wells for water.
With no major roads, no nearby airport or railroad tracks and no urban sprawl, the quiet is like a cold drink of water on a blistering summer day. From many vantage points along Little Park Road or in the development it’s possible to see the Grand Valley. It’s impossible to hear it.
There is an active homeowners association for the area, which maintains all the roads and gets the snowplow going in the winter. Since Glade Park usually gets more snow than the Grand Valley, that’s an important amenity. Dues are $400 annually.
The home at 20330 Red Cliff Road, which sits on 36 acres, is a great getaway for an active family. With almost 2,400 square feet, the home has a beautiful seven-foot soapstone Tulikivi woodstove in the center of the great room, which adds a cozy warmth to the home. The passive solar design and antique porcelain tile floor also convey heat on a sunny winter day.
The home is spacious and open, which the master suite on the main floor and the remaining bedrooms upstairs, along with an open study, a flexible room and a bath. A den off the kitchen opens to a large, screen-in porch.
Outside, a small greenhouse, along with raised beds in a deer-proof fenced area, provide space for those who love the challenge of gardening in the high desert. The well includes water rights for domestic use and for irrigating up to one acre.
The home and acreage is listed for $449,000.
The other home listed by Vaughn in Little Park Ranches includes a pole barn and almost 30 fenced acres, making it a perfect option for buyers with horses. The home has almost 1,900 square feet, with a split floor design and a flexible area in the living space that can serve as an office or a formal dining area. The master suite includes a huge, spa-like bath. The home is listed for $419,000.
Covenants at Little Park Ranches allow for animals and require that homes be stick-built, using natural stone, wood, brick or stucco exterior finishes.
For more information or a tour of the homes, contact Sharon Vaughn or anyone on the Vaughn team at Coldwell Bankers Homeowners Realty at 242-5505. Both homes will be open on Sunday, Feb. 12 from 1-3 p.m.
