Description
Blue Water at Wild Horse Ranch is a Scandanavian inspired five-bedroom home overlooking the blue waters of Lake Hattie in the Wild Horse Ranch community. With attention to detail, the clean design is simple, open, and refreshing. An inviting elevated wrap-around deck overlooks the southern facing lower patio, complete with hot tub, dining area and fire pit- perfect for entertaining under the big Wyoming skies.The 40.2-acre site is rolling open grassland with nearly 80 feet of elevation change from north to south. Located on the southwest corner of Lakeside Drive and Outlaw Rd, the site lines to the south are preserved long term due to adjacency to BLM land, which also provides private community access to Lake Hattie. With 3,262 livable square feet, the 5 bedroom home comfortably accommodates a growing family. Light and airy finishes throughout are updated, including pine wood trim, doors, and accents, and clean stainless steel kitchen appliances match a large farmhouse sink and gourmet gas cooktop oven and hood. The dining area has an abundance of natural light thanks to a four-panel floor-to-ceiling glass door providing a view of Lake Hattie. Recessed spots and accent pendant lighting and hard scaped main floor adds to the warmth of the neutral color palette. The upper-level master has a southern view and an oversized closet with built-in drawers and shelves. An oversized 1,800 sf attached heated garage is 48' deep allowing for multiple vehicles parked end-to-end. Three garage doors including a 12' x 14' door plus 16' ceilings accommodate an RV, boat, or other high-profile vehicles, and even a full height basketball hoop. However, the garage is so much more than just extra storage or a place to park vehicles. The large, open space rounds out a total of 4,990 sf of heated space included in this property and can be used to build, work out, play basketball, watch tv, and more. The lower south patio is designed with entertainment in mind; a covered dining area, inviting hot tub, and fire pit with Adirondack seating is perfect for evening lake watching. Firewood is conveniently stacked along the west and east walls for easy access to the wood burning stove on the main level. Gray landscape rock surrounds and contrasts with the dark- paneled improvements which gives the property a clean, minimalistic look and easy maintenance. All structures have green metal roofs enhancing the clean lines of the property balancing functionality and aesthetics. Water is stored in an interior gravity filled cistern, accessible from the exterior western side of the house. A credit, equal to the estimated cost of drilling a well, will be given for a full priced contract. Wild Horse Ranch, located at the foot of Sheep Mountain and within minutes of thousands of acres of the Medicine Bow National Forest, is perfect for an abundance of outdoor activities. Private and convenient access to Lake Hattie for recreational boating, lake and fly-fishing, mountain biking, hiking and camping is in your backyard. Within minutes, access to the Snowy Mountain Range offers snowmobiling, downhill and cross-country skiing. Summer ATV riding, rock outcrops beckon to be climbed and mastered. For the hunter, whitetail deer, elk, moose, antelope are plentiful. Bald eagles and hawks are frequently sighted hunting small game. Set at an elevation ranging from 7,200 to 8,000 feet, Wild Horse Ranch enjoys southern Wyoming's complimentary four seasons. Spring rains bring green grasses and new wildlife, sunny summer days are cooled by dark star-filled skies, crisp fall mornings and long days are ideal for fly fishing, and snow blanketed winter days are a chance to snowshoe or catch up on a favorite book. The Ranch is conveniently located to catch a Wyoming Cowboy fall football game, the Laramie Jubilee Days rodeo, or a quick trip to the Snowy Range Ski area and snowmobiling in the Medicine Bow Mountains. Wild Horse Ranch is 16 miles west of Laramie, home of the University of Wyoming, and an hour and a half to Cheyenne or Fort Collins, Colorado. The Medicine Bow Mountains and Snowy Range Ski area is less than a half hour to the west. Denver International Airport (DEN) is two hours to the south.
