192 Top of The World Drive Placerville, Colorado 81430 United States

Ever so close to the original "Beef Trail" , the major cattle drive between Norwood ranches and the high mountain meadows of Telluride, sits the Howling Wolf Ranch, amid wildflowers, quaking aspen groves, and grand vistas of the San Juan Mountains. Maintaining the Western ethos of freedom and privacy, Specie Mesa features oversized parcels surrounded by cattle ranches, far from "the Maddening Crowd' and awash with nature's tranquility. Yet, it is less than 30 minutes to the ski slopes of Telluride, and it's big city restaurants. This handsome log home is especially spacious, with over 9800 SF, and was substantially constructed of log and stone. The current owner has meticulously refurbished the house to make it hassle-free for the next owner. Added to the 60 gallon per minute well, is a new extensive filtering system delivering fresh mountain water to every faucet. A generous in law-or caretake unit has a private access, next to a family play room, and a particularly grand work out gym. Beyond the fresh landscaping, the graveled side yard has fenced runs for puppies to roam, as well as an efficient two stall barn, and grazing pasture. This noble home beckons you to hunker-down with the authentic vibrations of the True West, secure in the serenity, and wisdom of nature, and "The Cowboy Way".
