Hartsel, CO 80449 353 Adobe Rd

This property is a flag lot: A flag lot is described as "a plot of land with a long, narrow driveway, or 'flagpole,' that extends from the street to a rectangular main section. The main section of the lot is surrounded by neighbors on all sides and has no street frontage other than the driveway." With that being said, the flag on this lot is not a perfect rectangle, rather, it has five sides at different lengths. Even though the majority of the land, the flag portion, is encompassed by surrounding properties, the trees and topography make it very private and secluded. Upon entering the flag part of the lot, one tops the ridge and then descends down the northwest side to two levels, one lower than the other but each level offering some protection from the predominate southwesterly winds and some distance and privacy from neighboring properties. Each level would be good building or camping sites. On clear days, both levels are saturated with sunshine and the snowcapped peaks of the Mosquito Range can be seen as well as the two closest mountains, Buffalo Peaks. And, another peek through the trees brings Antero Reservoir into view. This property is in the most sought after Ranch of the Rockies, the Ranch, in the center of Colorado and is centrally located between Denver to the north, Colorado Springs to the east and various ski resorts to the west. Breckenridge and Monarch Ski Resorts are about an hours drive away. The Ranch is a nice friendly community where neighbors know and speak to their neighbors and lend a helping hand when needed. For a secluded campsite or the location of your retirement home, it won't get any better than this. Make plans to check it out very soon.
