Property Description
Five miles north of downtown Lyons, 44.39 acres carry a story most Boulder County land cannot tell. This is the heart of the original 300-acre Ohline Ranch, held and worked for generations, and offered now as a rare piece of Colorado with real optionality.A private drive winds through Ponderosa pine to the Ohline homestead, a thoughtfully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence of 1,403 square feet with hardwood floors, original stonework, and indoor-outdoor living that feels both rooted and refined. A seasonal stream, working apple orchard, and period outbuildings anchor a setting that lives larger than its footprint.There is also a meaningful path to expand the property's residential value. Pursuing historical landmark designation for the homestead could unlock a second primary residential building site and reclassify the existing home as an ADU, creating a two-residence legacy compound on a single parcel.The remainder of the land is where the property becomes singular. Roughly 25 acres are permitted for sandstone extraction under an active Colorado 112c mining permit, with a 2005 mineral study identifying reserves in the millions of tons and infrastructure in place for dimensional block, slab, and crushed stone. A turnkey income asset attached to a residence, almost impossible to replicate in today's Front Range land market.For buyers thinking wider, 1312 Steamboat Valley rewards imagination. A legacy land holding. A creative or craft compound. A private equestrian retreat. A phased-use strategy balancing residence, income, and conservation. Few Boulder County properties let a buyer choose their own thesis. This one does.Lyons in minutes, Longmont in twenty, Boulder in thirty, Rocky Mountain National Park within an hour. Canyon-edge privacy, dark skies, and a setting that feels genuinely removed without being remote.
