Own Your Own Mountain — 225 Acre Colorado Ranch
Conifer, Jefferson County, Colorado
Own your own mountain — Saddle Mountain Ranch is a dream canvas for the discerning equestrian.
Just 30 miles from Denver and accessible via a paved county road and a paved 1.2-mile private driveway, this 225-acre ranch offers rare four-season access and features rolling meadows, gently sloped benches, and miles of internal trails. The landscape provides natural sites for arenas, round pens, barns, and expansive pastures, while A-2 zoning and the complete absence of HOA or covenant restrictions give owners the freedom to design equestrian facilities that truly match their vision.
At the heart of this extraordinary property stands a 7,706 sq ft mountain estate, offering the scale, comfort, and design ideal for an equestrian retreat. With five bedrooms, expansive gathering spaces, a gourmet kitchen, and multiple living areas, the home provides ample room for family, guests, trainers, or riding partners to stay and enjoy the ranch in true Colorado luxury.
A key highlight is the versatile 3,200± sq ft shop, thoughtfully designed with half fully insulated and finished and the other half open for equipment or storage. Renderings demonstrate how effortlessly this structure can be transformed into a premium custom barn with stalls, tack room, feed storage, or a wash bay. Several additional building sites across the ranch offer ideal locations for future barns, training facilities, guest quarters, or a dedicated equestrian center.
The ranch’s miles of private trails create exceptional riding opportunities, winding through aspen groves, open meadows, timbered hillsides, and dramatic rock formations. Riders can explore ridge lines, traverse valleys, and experience the serenity of a truly private mountain landscape without ever leaving the property—an increasingly rare luxury along the Front Range.
Year-round paved access ensures easy trailer travel in all seasons, while the ranch’s peaceful setting, abundant wildlife, and stunning mountain views create a riding experience that feels both inspiring and restorative. Whether your passion is breeding, training, pleasure riding, or building a private equestrian retreat for your family and horses, Saddle Mountain Ranch offers the space, freedom, and natural beauty to bring that dream to life.
