3763 County Road 43 Bailey, CO 80421

Listing details for 3763 County Road 43, Bailey, CO 80421 : This ultra-private, postcard-worthy Colorado retreat spans over 27 acres and offers a gated, paved driveway, live Deer Creek frontage, a private pond, mountain views, and a picturesque mix of forest and lush mountain valley. Set within a quiet mountain corridor approximately 45 miles from Denver, this is a property defined by land, water, and setting—and one that simply cannot be recreated. At the heart of the property is an established homesite featuring a 5,000+ square-foot main residence*, accompanied by a recently renovated guest house, a detached garage, and multiple outbuildings well suited for storage, stables, or workshops. Infrastructure is a defining advantage. The property is served by natural gas, a grid-tied solar system, septic system, and a well permitted for up to three single-family residences. With no HOA, no covenants, and favorable zoning, the property offers long-term flexibility and legacy potential—whether envisioned as a private mountain estate, equestrian retreat, multi-generational compound, or more. The guest house provides immediate, finished, move-in-ready living space with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a full kitchen, a wood-burning stove, and accommodations for six to eight guests—ideal for on-site living while planning future improvements or hosting extended stays. This is a property for buyers who value land, setting, and location first—with infrastructure already in place, offering the ability to build thoughtfully without starting from zero. *The main residence was built in 1996 and offers over 5,000 square feet with a 1.5-story layout, including a former upper-level apartment and a concrete slab with radiant in-floor heating. The home has experienced fire-related damage and is not currently habitable; the interior has been stripped in preparation for reconstruction. Architectural plans are available to assist with a future rebuild or re-imagining.
