Description

Located in Big Horn County, Wyoming, this 50-acre property offers exceptional opportunities for water and mountain recreation nearby, horse property, and rural residential living. The parcel includes a four-bedroom, four-bathroom main residence plus a two-bedroom, two-bathroom guest house. For those with equine interests, there is a five-stall horse barn and multiple loafing sheds, making this property well-suited for horse operations or livestock grazing.

Water rights are included with the land, an increasingly valuable asset in this region. The terrain is well-suited for a variety of uses: gently rolling pastures, open space around the homes, and access to public lands. From this property, you have direct access to public land via side-by-side trails, allowing you to drive off-road all the way to the crest of the Big Horn Mountains. This offers excellent opportunities for recreational use, such as hunting, trail riding, or simply accessing mountain terrain.

A major highlight is the proximity to the Leavitt Reservoir, currently under expansion. The reservoir is expected to be filled in spring 2026.

Once complete, the expanded Leavitt Reservoir will cover approximately 200 surface acres and provide recreational amenities including boating, parking, and picnic facilities.

This means potential for water recreation right near your property, along with scenic value.

Utilities for the main home and guest house support full-time residential use. The buildings provide flexible space for family, seasonal visitors, or caretaker living. The layouts are conducive to hosting guests, short-term rentals, or multi-generational living, while the generous acreage delivers privacy and room to expand or diversify uses.

Access to the property is good: while remote enough for recreational privacy, it's located within Big Horn County, where nearby towns provide community and services. The county itself supports a rural lifestyle with a mix of agriculture, ranching, and outdoor recreation.

From a recreation and land-use perspective, this acreage supports a mix of uses. Equestrian facilities are ready, grazing is feasible, and the side-by-side trail access gives you off-grid access to public lands. The future reservoir adds an attractive water-recreation component.

In summary, this 50-acre property in Big Horn County is a strong candidate for those wanting a working ranch footprint along with residential comfort and access to public lands. It provides a rare combination: substantial water rights, well-developed buildings, equine infrastructure, and proximity to a soon-to-be expanded recreational reservoir. It does not promise specific returns, but it offers real, tangible assets and flexibility for a range of land-use strategies.
