35-Acre Luxury Mountain Estate with National Forest Access in Pagosa Springs

Some homes offer beautiful views. Others offer privacy. A select few offer a lifestyle that simply can't be recreated.

This edition of Pagosa Springs Property Spotlight features 1149 Cattle Trail Place, an extraordinary 35-acre mountain estate where luxury living, equestrian amenities, and direct access to the San Juan National Forest come together in one remarkable property.

Located just minutes from downtown Pagosa Springs, this fully remodeled estate offers the rare opportunity to enjoy refined mountain living without sacrificing convenience. Whether your ideal day includes horseback riding through National Forest, entertaining family and friends, or simply taking in panoramic mountain views from your own backyard, this home was designed to embrace the very best of Colorado living.

A Property That Stands Apart

What immediately sets this property apart is its location. Bordering the San Juan National Forest, the property provides direct access to thousands of acres of public land for horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, snowmobiling, and year-round outdoor recreation.

Properties with this combination of acreage, privacy, and National Forest access are increasingly difficult to find, making this an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking both luxury and adventure.

Thoughtfully Reimagined for Modern Mountain Living

Originally built in 2006, the home underwent an extensive renovation in 2025, blending mountain character with sophisticated contemporary finishes.

Spanning more than 4,200 square feet, the residence showcases expansive windows that frame surrounding mountain vistas, soaring ceilings, a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, designer lighting, and carefully selected finishes throughout. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen features Thermador appliances, custom cabinetry, Taj Mahal Quartzite Cristallo countertops, and generous gathering space designed for everyday living as well as entertaining.

Every improvement was made with both comfort and craftsmanship in mind, creating a home that feels warm, inviting, and effortlessly luxurious.

Designed for Horse Owners and Outdoor Enthusiasts

For equestrian buyers, this property offers something truly special.

The professionally designed horse facilities and riding arena provide everything needed for daily training and care, while direct National Forest access means your next trail ride begins right outside your gate. It's a lifestyle that many dream about but few properties can genuinely offer.

Whether you own horses or simply appreciate wide-open spaces, the property's 35 acres provide exceptional privacy while still being only a short drive from shopping, dining, golf, and the famous Pagosa Springs hot springs.
