The historic Kelling homestead ranch lies nestled among towering ponderosa pines, aspen groves and lush meadows at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Just minutes from the quaint mountain town of Westcliffe, CO, this 820 acre Homestead encompasses over 340 acres of irrigated hay and pasture land, 3 creeks, a pond, and remnants of the home and barns that were part of the original German Colony in the Wet Mountain Valley in the late 1800's.
With stunning peak views, trophy elk, deer, antelope and wild turkey, the Kelling homestead is not only an oasis for outdoor enthusiasts but holds potential for large tract development. One of the last large land holdings in the area and boasting excellent senior water rights, the ranch is secluded yet accessible. The ranch sits 1 hour from the art galleries and restaurants of historic downtown Salida and just 1 1/2 hours from the Colorado Springs airport.
If you are looking for the ultimate high country ranch this is a must see.
