Three Meadows Ranch: A Unique Legacy Property Spanning an impressive 4,251 acres, Three Meadows Ranch is the largest contiguous parcel available in the Roaring Fork Valley and sits just 45 minutes from Aspen. This stunning property encompasses private meadows, rolling hills, and breathtaking panoramic views, making it a remarkable legacy holding. Currently operated as a seasonal cattle ranch and private retreat, it offers year-round access and a wealth of all-season activities, including camping, hiking, and hunting. The ranch is well-equipped with abundant water rights, including senior rights of 29.06 cfs for irrigation and domestic use, plus an additional 609 acre-feet allocated for reservoir storage. The lush meadows attract a resident elk herd of over 300, while numerous ponds enhance the property's natural beauty. Elevations range from 7,300 to 8,600 feet, providing expansive views of the Elk Mountain Range, from Capitol Peak to Sunlight Ski Area. Three Meadows Ranch comprises 33 contiguous assessor parcels, making it easily subdividable into 35-acre parcels with no easements or development restrictions. A 442-acre portion, known as the Shadigee Ranch, is already platted into 12 lots ranging from 35 to 40 acres, ideal for potential development. This area is conveniently located near Cottonwood Pass Road, close to power and utilities. A spectacular separate homesite within the upper ranch offers unobstructed views, perfect for a future residence. Originally assembled in the 1990s as a self-sustaining compound, the upper ranch features off-grid cabins, a bunkhouse, horse barn, observatory, and a remodeled party barn with a game room and theater. The lower ranch includes a caretaker's residence, all season greenhouse, and equipment barn, all connected to the grid. Smith Park Reservoir, situated midway on the property, boasts a one-bedroom solar powered cabin and swimming dock. Access to Three Meadows Ranch is convenient, with entry points from Upper Cattle Creek Road and Cottonwood Pass Road. The Eagle Airport is approximately an hour away, and Aspen Airport is just 45 minutes. This exceptional property combines the allure of vast wilderness, abundant resources, and development potential, presenting a rare opportunity in the coveted Roaring Fork Valley.
