Artopia! Modern Luxury in the Foothills on 40 Acres - Mtn Biking & Skiing

Welcome to the Wonka Ranch! This gorgeous 6000 sf home sits on 40 acres at 8000 ft just 20 min west of Golden, Colorado at the gateway to the Rocky Mountains. Full of gorgeous artwork, this modern masterpiece boasts scenic views of huge peaks to the west and wildlife viewing out every door and window. Spread out over 3 levels, each guest has their own serene space to relax and enjoy nature. Chose your own adventure whether it be skiing, biking, climbing, hiking, rafting, fly fishing and more!

You have the entire house and 40 acres to yourselves. You need a car and a 4WD may be necessary in winter months.

We have a no pet policy. The house does not have AC but at 8000 ft in Colorado, AC is not necessary. Just crack the windows and you will be greeted with a lovely breeze. This is a non-smoking property both inside and out. There is a fire pit on the top of the property that is closed and guests are not permitted to use it by the county. Fire danger in recent years in Colorado is very scary and we are not permitted any outdoor fires.

Since the Wonka Ranch is about beauty and the outdoors, we do not provide cable TV service. You are welcome to stream any services you subscribe to on any of the smart televisions in the house. The closest grocery store is 20 minutes away and there are no food delivery services in the area. You need to plan for meals and food in advance of arrival to the property.
