By Awais Manzoor

1 min read

Colorado’s outdoors-first lifestyle takes center stage in this trio of properties that trio breathing-room acreage with everyday access to recreation. In the Black Forest area of Colorado Springs, two matched five-acre homesites in the Winsome master-planned community balance rural tranquility and modern convenience, with direct connection to more than 145 acres of community open space and trails. Farther southwest in Dolores, an 8.48-acre riverfront retreat on the West Fork of the Dolores River layers private trout water, equestrian infrastructure, and proximity to Dunton Hot Springs and Telluride.

Set on an expansive homesite in Winsome, a thoughtfully designed master-planned community in the scenic Black Forest area of Colorado Springs, this offering balances rural tranquility with everyday ease. Located in Filing #2, the lot is designed to feel connected yet unhurried, with direct access to more than 145 acres of community open space and trails. Mornings can begin with a walk out into the open landscape, and afternoons invite long loops on the trail system—space to move, breathe, and reset without leaving the neighborhood. The setting captures the appeal of life just beyond the bustle, where modern convenience is paired with a strong relationship to the outdoors. It’s an address made for unstructured weekends, evening strolls, and a slower, more grounded rhythm.

Located in Filing #2, the lot is positioned for a life that naturally extends outdoors, with direct access to more than 145 acres of community open space and trails. Morning walks, evening rides, and unhurried time under wide Colorado skies become part of the rhythm here, supported by the structure and vision of a carefully planned neighborhood setting. It’s a rare kind of canvas—generous in scale, grounded in nature, and connected to a larger network of shared landscape—where the pace feels quieter without feeling remote. The result is an easy, open-air lifestyle shaped by space, trails, and the surrounding forested scenery.

Along the water’s edge in Dolores, this 8.48-acre riverfront sanctuary unfolds across more than 1,000 feet of private frontage on the West Fork of the Dolores River. The custom main residence pairs artisan finishes with a chef’s kitchen, a theater room, and expansive front and back decks, with a hot tub for unwinding after a day outside. A historic 1941 Foutz Cabin adds a distinct sense of place, with historic floors and windows. Purpose-built equestrian facilities include irrigated and fenced grounds, a 150′ x 225′ riding arena, a 60′ round pen, eight covered stalls, a hay barn, and a four-acre irrigated pasture. Bordering public land and minutes from Dunton Hot Springs—and 45 minutes from Telluride—life here is defined by backcountry access, river days, and quiet seclusion.
