Elk Gap Ranchette proves the old real estate adage of, location, location, location as the most important consideration when purchasing a property. Elk Gap is situated at the base of the West Spanish Peak and adjacent to the Big Wall, an iconic geological anomaly created through a process of molten rock subsequently hardening and erosion over millenia. Near La Veta, Colorado the property also just happens to sit at a gap in the Big Wall that serves as a wildlife corridor, and more specifically as the prime passage for elk herds to move from one valley to another. Elk Gap is one of 20 large parcels in the highly desirable Hole In The Wall Ranch subdivision, known for it's unparalleled privacy, dark skies, quiet, and abundant wildlife. Located in over-the-counter elk Game Management Unit 85 elk tags are easy to get. If a camera is your tool of choice you won't be disappointed as all of the elk photos in this brochure were taken on the property. A very tasteful and perfectly situated 2800 sf home with an oversized garage allows grandiose 360 degree views and a view from every window in the house. A recent addition of the garage and more living space was completed this year. The design of the house allows for it to be reconfigured with up to four bedrooms if needed. A wood burning fireplace, hardwood floors and patios with views contribute to it's Colorado ambiance. Bring your horses if that's your interest. There is plenty of territory to ride. Minutes away, La Veta offers shopping, restaurants, live music and houses of worship. A regional hospital is approximately 30 minutes away and offers a variety of medical specialties. Elk Gap Ranchette is a special property.
