Description

Located just 15 miles from Walsenburg, Colorado, the Flying D Ranch combines high-end residential design with functional aviation and ranching infrastructure. This property offers a rare blend of luxury living, self-sufficiency, and practicality, all set within a quiet rural landscape of southern Colorado.

At the center of the ranch sits a 6,545± square-foot custom residence built with durability and detail in mind. The home features 14-inch insulated concrete form (ICF) construction, providing excellent energy efficiency and strength. The interior showcases premium finishes, including Acacia, Brazilian Koa, Maple, and Cherry Marble Tile flooring. Architectural elements such as river stone wall accents, custom crown molding, and granite and Travertine surfaces create a refined yet warm aesthetic.

The great room features a 30-foot ceiling and a custom 30-foot stone fireplace with intricate Mexican tile inlays. Over 20 large windows fill the space with natural light and include electric blinds for convenience. A sunken seating area, spiral staircase to a loft and observation tower, and a secure concrete safe room with a vault door add both comfort and functionality.

The kitchen is designed for both beauty and performance. Aspen cabinetry pairs with Blue Bahia granite countertops, a Bosch induction cooktop, dual beverage coolers, and a large island for food preparation and gathering. The spacious walk-in pantry supports long-term storage and organization. Each bedroom features an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, ensuring privacy and comfort for all occupants. The main suite includes a whirlpool tub, multi-head tile shower, custom coyote glass sink, infrared sauna, and patio access. The home is equipped with geothermal in-floor heating and 120 gallons of hot water capacity, ensuring reliable comfort year-round.

A highlight of the property is its aviation infrastructure. The FAA-registered 6,000-foot asphalt runway (designation 73CO) allows for convenient private air travel directly to and from the ranch. The runway includes a 30-foot-wide taxiway and secure fencing to keep livestock separated from the airstrip. Adjacent to the runway, a 70x70x20 insulated Braemar steel hangar offers radiant-heated floors, 200-amp electrical service, water access, and multiple entry options with bi-fold, roll-up, and walk-in doors. Over three-quarters of an acre of concrete and asphalt surfaces around the hangar support smooth movement and maintenance operations.

The ranch also accommodates livestock and equestrian pursuits. Improvements include an insulated barn, loafing shed, and multiple water sources throughout the property. The land is fully fenced and cross-fenced for efficient grazing management. Access is convenient with direct county road frontage and a throughway for movement between pastures. Up to 650 additional adjacent acres are available for those looking even more privacy and opportunity.

Flying D Ranch provides a unique opportunity to own a property that supports multiple uses—aviation, livestock, recreation, and residence—all within a thoughtfully designed setting. The blend of modern systems, quality craftsmanship, and self-sustaining infrastructure makes this property stand out as a practical and distinctive Colorado holding. Its location near Walsenburg also provides access to local services, while Trinidad lies approximately 45 miles south and Pueblo about 65 miles north.

Whether used as a working ranch, aviation estate, or quiet country retreat, Flying D Ranch offers an exceptional combination of comfort, efficiency, and purpose-built amenities that are rarely found together on one property.
