479 Meadow Drive

Breathtaking mountain views, valuable water rights, two separately deeded parcels, and year-round Colorado recreation come together in this rare 8.77-acre Hayden Creek Meadows offering. Surrounded by iconic 14,000-foot peaks and sweeping Arkansas Valley vistas, this property delivers the privacy, scenery, and lifestyle buyers search for in a true Colorado mountain retreat.

The 4.67-acre homesite features a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with approximately 1,400 square feet of comfortable living space, an oversized heated two-car garage/workshop, and a heated enclosed breezeway for easy all-season access. Recent improvements, including a new roof and extensive remodeling, add peace of mind and move-in appeal.

Step onto the front deck and take in wide-open valley views, brilliant Colorado skies, and frequent wildlife, including eagles, deer, elk, bighorn sheep, and more. Multiple outbuildings, including a versatile 16x48 steel building, provide excellent space for equipment, storage, hobbies, or workshop use.

The adjoining 4.1-acre parcel adds tremendous flexibility with an additional domestic well permit and room for hay meadow, livestock, future improvements, or added privacy. Irrigation water rights from the Fickes Ditch further enhance the value and usability of the land.

Minutes from the Arkansas River and Highway 50, with easy access to Salida, Canon City, Monarch Mountain, fishing, rafting, hiking, hunting, skiing, and public lands, this property offers the rare combination of acreage, infrastructure, water rights, mountain views, and everyday livability in one exceptional Fremont County setting.
