7643 County Road 8 Victor, CO 80860

Listing details for 7643 County Road 8, Victor, CO 80860 : Imagine waking up to the sounds of nature, not traffic - your off-grid dream awaits! Right on the West side of Pikes Peak bordering the National Forest with thousands of acres to hike or hunt. This beautiful 35-acre mountain property is a slice of paradise. It comes with a Solar System (owned/paid off) that produces energy for the Main Cabin (built in 2024), the huge (24' by 40') two-car Garage/Workshop (built in 2017), the Tiny House, and the shed. The 15 gpm well provides fantastic water. There is enough cut wood on the property to last a lifetime. There is a wood burning stove in the Main Cabin's living room, one can be used in the Tiny House, and there is another one in the fully insulated Garage/Workshop area. Concerned about expensive taxes? This property is part of the "Open Cattle Grazing Tax" program, so the taxes are super low (a few hundred annually) and the open grazing lease can be transferable to the new owner. The new owners need to apply. The property is located on a road that is part of the local school Bus route, so when it snows it is one of the first roads to be attended to. This ranch also has an engineered driveway. Your morning coffee will taste better with the breathtaking views that this enchanted property offers. You will have around 300 days of sun (great for solar power generation!) to enjoy seeing elk, mule deer, mountain lions, lynx, wild turkey, bears, and free range cattle. Here are some fun things you and your family can do around this area: Cathedral Park (amazing rock formations, beautiful meadows, and hiking trails, like having Garden of the Gods less than three miles east of you). Skagway Reservoir (45 minutes away) - some of the best trout fishing in Teller County, both in the lake and in the creek (Beaver Creek) that flows out of the Reservoir. AAA rated County Road 8 is in the top 10 nationwide for color tours (incredible yellow and orange foliage in the fall). Cripple Creek, 9 miles away. This is an opportunity of a lifetime!
