About this property
Just rehabbed, amazing views on 300 acre ranch, animals, trails, hottub, pond
Brand new. Nothing like it. Five bedrooms (including large bunk room that sleeps 7) FIVE BATHS! Stay at the Brixen Ivy Ranch and enjoy all of our amenities as well as Galena territory owners club. Great floor plan with large great room, amazing views of rolling hills. Giant game room with pool table, table tennis, pop a shot, bunk room for 6, in addition to four more large bedrooms. Fire pit, hike the Shark trail or others on the 300 acre ranch. Access to ball field, llamas, peacocks. Great family escape with lots of fresh air and room to "social distance" :). Large HOTTUB on Large patio deck and screened in porch with outdoor television.
