Property Description

Homestead 22 at Wilder on the Taylor presents a rare opportunity to own a 35± acre riverfront homesite within one of Colorado’s premier private ranch communities. Positioned above the Taylor River at approximately 8,450 feet, the elevated homesite captures sweeping views across the river corridor, irrigated hay meadows, and the surrounding peaks of the Gunnison National Forest while offering exceptional privacy. Ownership includes full membership in Wilder on the Taylor, encompassing more than 2,100 acres of permanently conserved ranch lands. Residents enjoy over two miles of private Gold Medal fly fishing on both banks of the renowned Taylor River, complemented by an additional two miles of a professionally enhanced sight fishing stream, community ponds, miles of hiking, biking, equestrian, and maintained Nordic ski trails, and direct access to more than 96,000 acres of Gunnison National Forest. The property is offered with fully permit-ready architectural plans, allowing the next owner to begin construction immediately. Designed to embrace the surrounding landscape, the plans include a dramatic circular motor court, cascading stone terraces, expansive outdoor living areas, a gas fire pit, drop-in hot tub, and generous decks that maximize the spectacular valley views. Four beautifully refurbished turn-of-the-century riverfront guest cabins within the Owner’s Camp provide comfortable accommodations for owners while building and continue to serve as ideal overflow lodging for family and guests. Located just 25 minutes from Crested Butte and Crested Butte Mountain Resort and approximately 20 minutes from the Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport, Homestead 22 offers an exceptional combination of ready-to-build convenience, world-class fly fishing, enduring conservation values, and the opportunity to create a legacy mountain retreat in the heart of the Colorado Rockies.
