Mountain Living Along the Frying Pan River-

Tucked along the banks of the gold-medal Frying Pan River, just five miles from Basalt, Porcupine Ranch is an extraordinary 73.87-acre legacy estate designed for those who seek absolute privacy, world-class fly fishing, and a true connection to nature. Spanning three meticulously curated parcels that are separately deeded to be developed or owned as one legacy estate, this rare offering presents unmatched riverfront access, exceptional equestrian amenities, and a luxurious mountain residence, creating an irreplaceable sanctuary in the Roaring Fork Valley.

A Legacy Estate with Limitless Potential -

Lovingly shaped over 25 years, Porcupine Ranch is a testament to vision, craftsmanship, and stewardship of the land. This private retreat features 1,700 feet of exclusive river frontage, three wells, rolling pastures, and pristine woodlands that back directly to protected National Forest lands, an unparalleled haven for fly fishing, horseback riding, and outdoor adventure.

Exquisite Living Spaces-

At the heart of the estate, the 5,739-square-foot main residence blends rustic elegance with refined mountain luxury. Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, this home boasts five spacious bedrooms, expansive living and entertaining areas, and breathtaking views of the Seven Castles cliffs. Whether gathering fireside in the grand great room, hosting elegant dinners, or enjoying the serene sounds of the river, the home provides an unmatched sense of tranquility and grandeur.

• 1,040 SF Fishing Cabin - A charming riverside retreat, ideal for guest accommodations or private escapes.

• Two Barns with Premium Equestrian Facilities - Accommodating up to seven horses with multiple stalls, tack rooms, paddocks, and irrigated pastures.

• Three Distinct Parcels - Offering a unique opportunity for multi-generational living, expansion, or development.

Income & Investment Potential-

Additionally, the main residence commands a luxury rental rate of $40,000 per month, offering significant investment upside.
