Property Description
This one of a kind property offers 3 incredible opportunities with its historic 4 bed/3 bath residence, build sites for additional residences, & frontage along Hwy 24. Chipita Ranch is a stunning, wooded 59-acres at the base of Pikes Peak, 12 miles west of Colorado Springs with easy year-round access to Hwy 24, perfect for those seeking rural mountain living. Nestled on the sunny side of Chipita Park, this property is fully fenced with gated access and features a cascading waterfall, seasonal stream, towering pines, wildflower meadows, dramatic rock formations & abundant hiking trails. This versatile land has numerous potential build sites for single-family homes, with roads & partial utilities already in place. Approx. 387-feet of frontage along Hwy 24 with 2 access points & great visibility to the high volume of daily traffic. Amidst this natural beauty rests The Wellington House, a historic landmark of Ute Pass, built in 1888. This Victorian farmhouse has been lovingly updated over the years while preserving its original charm & wood detailing harvested from the surrounding forests by the original homesteaders. The spacious parlor offers wall-to-wall windows for natural light & the original 1880 Garland Parlor Wood Stove. The adjoining den showcases an antique stained-glass window, rustic wood paneling, & a handcrafted moss rock fireplace connecting to the dining area. The large farm-style kitchen includes an eat-in, vintage farm sink,1800s butcher block, & an Okeefe-Merritt gas stove. Sliding glass doors open to a flagstone patio & gardens watered by an alluvial well. The downstairs bath is highlighted by a Sundance Spa, stained-glass windows, & antique pressed-tin ceiling. A studio apartment with separate entrance features a full kitchen & rock fireplace, and has successfully served as guest quarters and both a short & long-term rental. This is a rare opportunity to own an exceptional property with a diverse range of possibilities.
