About 21540 Ridgeline Dr S

Welcome to your private Colorado mountain escape—perched high above the entire neighborhood with the most stunning panoramic views of the Spanish Peaks in all of Las Animas County. This truly secluded property offers unmatched privacy, space, and natural beauty, sitting on over 35 acres that back up to 1,500 acres of protected public land. Inside the home, you’ll find two main-level bedrooms and a non-conforming bedroom downstairs as well as a spacious loft that can be used as a fourth sleeping area. Recent updates include brand-new carpet, water pump, water heater, furnace, and new matching stainless steel fridge and dishwasher. Step outside onto the upgraded 42-foot Trex deck, the perfect spot to take in sunset over the peaks or some of the best stargazing in the country. Adventure awaits right from your doorstep with private hiking, 4x4, and dirt bike trails on the property. A spacious 15x25-foot workshop with a loft, plus an additional tool shed, offer plenty of room for projects and storage. The producing orchard is a standout feature—peaches, apples, plums, pears, and even blackberries thrive here, protected by a solar electric fence from local wildlife. The private dirt road is maintained and plowed by the HOA, making year-round access a breeze. Additional water, septic, and power line already installed out to the yard making building an ADU easy! If you’re looking for breathtaking views, total privacy, and a true Colorado mountain lifestyle—you found it.
