Chapel Valley Ranch is a Colorado mountain retreat envisioned and built as a joyful place of worship for
family and friends…and inspired by those who have walked by faith to cherish its
peace, stillness, and immense beauty. Chapel Valley Ranch is a special gift to everyone
of all ages. A place of refuge for personal healing, refreshment, and renewal with
endless recreational fun!
Encompassing
166 + acres and bordering a 640-Acre Colorado State Land Section, you will find
a display of powerful vistas and dramatic scenery. There is an indescribable splendor
of the mountains sitting gracefully in the heart of this magnificent landscape.
Marvel at snow-capped Pikes Peak, the giant granite formations at Dome
Rock/Mueller State Park, Mt. Pisgah (notable, and biblically named as the first
view to the “Promised Land”) and Wrights Reservoir, an area club fishing lake. The
ranch itself offers a diversity of land attributes from its mountain views,
ponds, open grazing areas and other “surprises”.
Fill
your spirit as you hear Chapel Valley calling you to indulge in its meditative presence.
Below the main house is a valley dotted with (3) quaint ponds. Follow the path along
a seasonal spring fed stream to your first big surprise. Around the bend is open-air
outdoor Chapel Area complete with a cross, alter and (2) pulpits - all
crafted from massive trees once thriving on the land. The pews are designed in
this natural outdoor setting with colorful aspen trees dispersed within the
seating area. The yellow aspen leaves in the Fall illuminate the Chapel Area
like a golden pathway to heaven, immersed in the sunshine and deep blue skies. Be
still in the moment and rejoice in the radiance, glory and grace of this humble
place.
Beyond
the Chapel is a play/picnic area with swing set and real treehouse. What a great
joy to be able to see your children and grandchildren hiking and exploring. Dedicating
time to spend in nature, soaking in its nourishment and reflecting upon the lessons
of the land will prove to be an unconditional gift that will give bounteously.
Chapel Valley Ranch offers limitless possibilities. With 166+ acres you can
build up to (4) more main homes and (4) guest houses. This prime piece of property could also be used as a hobby ranch, short-term
rentals (VRBO/ Airbnb) or simply remain as a cherished family or corporate retreat.
You can also add animal operations to its open pastureland for grazing, breeding and training.
An abundance of water rights and (3) domestic/livestock wells also transfer
with the property.
