People who love the great outdoors will be hard-pressed to find a location greater than Mountain Bird Ranch for $29,500,000.
Formerly owned by the late singer-songwriter Dan Fogelberg, the approximately 610-acre estate may be located 35 miles southeast of downtown Pagosa Springs, Colorado, but it feels extremely remote (in a good way!) because of its national forest surroundings.
There simply isn’t a bad view to be found here thanks to sweeping vistas, gentle slopes covered by groves of aspens, lush open meadows and parks, a beautiful lake, and ponds stocked with trout. There’s also a fenced perimeter of 6.75 miles that’s an ideal barrier for controlling livestock.
But the outdoors is far from only great thing about Mountain Bird Ranch. Fogelberg also built a beautiful 7,568-square-foot main house back in 1982 that has been recently renovated.
After a day of hiking and horseback riding, head to the stunning chef's kitchen to whip up a snack, rest in one of the private suites, or relax in one of the multiple sitting areas or grand living room outfitted with a stacked-stone fireplace.
Other amenities include a workout room, downstairs bar, and a billiard room. If you’re feeling especially ambitious, you can even try your hand at laying down tracks in the recording studio.
This incredible getaway—listed for $29,500,000 by Zach Morse for Legacy Properties West Sotheby’s International Realty—is offered turnkey, so all the ranch equipment, vehicles, and home furnishings are included.
Treasures range from dishware and a mix of new and antique furnishings to 90-plus bottles of wine and a collection of nearly 1,000 vinyl record albums.
There’s also a 2,994-square-foot guesthouse, large indoor riding arena with horse stalls, mechanics shop with attached barn, and a 2,000-gallon-capacity fuel shed.
