enjoys absolute privacy from the road without sacrificing its sweeping valley views. The ranch sits directly along a major elk migration corridor and physically borders public land, offering abundant wildlife watching, with frequent sightings of elk, mule deer, and native species right from the porch.

Improvements

Built in 2015 and meticulously maintained by its original owner, this custom residence was engineered from the ground up for maximum timber-and-steel structural integrity, thermal efficiency, and lifestyle comfort.

Upper-Level Living

The Great Room: The open-concept upper level showcases vaulted ceilings with

exposed steel and rough-sawn wood trusses. Large southeast-facing panoramic

picture windows frame uninterrupted views of the Continental Divide, Granby Ranch Ski Resort, Winter Park Ski Resort, the town of Granby, and the confluence of the Colorado and Fraser Rivers. A high-efficiency wood-burning

fireplace with a secondary combustion chamber, Colorado stone surround, and

timber mantle serves as the room’s centerpiece.

Chef’s Kitchen: Designed for entertaining and showcasing beautiful views of the

Never Summer Range, this culinary space features a commercial-grade BlueStar

range, a solid butcher-block island with a prep sink, durable quartz countertops, a

dedicated wine fridge, and a walk-in pantry with floor-to-ceiling shelving. The

entire space is tied together with custom distressed maple and alder cabinetry.

Primary Master Suite: A true mountain sanctuary capturing sweeping views of

Parlay Ranch and the Never Summer Range, featuring premium finishes and

rough-sawn hardwood flooring. The spa-like primary bathroom boasts dual

vanities, an elegant accent wall of authentic antique barn wood paneling, a large

soaking tub, and an expansive walk-in shower beautifully finished in rich

travertine and glass, equipped with therapeutic body jets.

Lower-Level Living & High-Country Utility

Heated Garage & Custom Workshop: A massive 1,230 sq. ft. heated footprint

features two oversized doors, offering open room to easily park three vehicles or

an extensive fleet of motorized mountain toys, with a portion of the space

thoughtfully designated as a custom workshop with built-in workbenches,

commercial in-floor drainage, and an extensive mechanical room footprint.

The Mudroom: A spacious, highly functional transition zone featuring durable

ceramic tile floors, a heavy-duty custom built-in coat and boot bench with cubbies

crafted from authentic antique red and grey barnboard, a large coat closet, and a

full laundry area. Custom alder wood cabinetry offers abundant storage,

beautifully complemented by a deep stainless steel utility sink/wash basin.

Guest Quarters: The lower level is completed by two private bedrooms and a

beautifully appointed guest bathroom featuring an oversized walk-in shower

finished in rich travertine and glass.

Wraparound Porch: Expanding the home’s functional footprint, a massive

covered 1,160 sq. ft. half-wraparound porch serves as an elevated outdoor living

and dining sanctuary. It is the ultimate space for hosting alfresco meals, enjoying

quiet morning coffee, and fully immersing yourself in the cool, crisp summer

alpine wonder, while its deep architectural overhangs provide natural shade to

the lower level during the warmer months.

Advanced Engineering & Energy Efficiency

Climate Control: The entire residence is heated by a premium hydronic radiant

in-floor system, delivering consistent warmth throughout--from the rough-sawn

hardwood floors to the durable mudroom tiling and lower-level living quarters.

The home also features a whole-house air exchange system and is insulated

with high-R-value closed-cell foam.

Smart Maintenance: Features an oversized commercial water heater and a hot

water recirculation system for instant hot water. The smart mechanicals

effortlessly maintain a steady 55F to prevent freezing when the home is

unoccupied, and are designed to keep the home incredibly cool in the summer

and warm in the winter with minimal utility draw.

UV Protection & Window Construction: All the windows in the home are metal-clad, wood framed, dual paned windows. They are treated with a specialized

ceramic film that blocks over 99% of UV and infrared radiation, protecting the

custom interior woodwork and flooring from high-altitude sun exposure.

Modern Connectivity: Unlike many mountain properties, the estate enjoys

excellent, reliable cellular reception and high-speed internet access, offering the

perfect blend of total wilderness privacy and seamless remote-work capabilities.

Recreation

Parlay Ranch offers unmatched access to the very best of Grand County’s year-round playground.

Direct Public Land Access: The western boundary of Parlay Ranch unlocks

seamless entry to over 11,000 acres of public BLM land that connects directly to

the Arapaho and Routt national forests. Similarly, the property shares its eastern

boundary with approximately 900 acres of contiguous public BLM land, allowing

you to hike, hunt, bike or snowmobile out from your backdoor. It is an exceptional

setup for hunting (located in premium big game GMU 18), backcountry trail

riding, and exploration.

Fishing & Water: Located less than a mile from a coveted Gold Medal section of

the Colorado River and just 10 miles from Lake Granby, world-class fly fishing

and boating are right outside your gate. Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand

Lake, Shadow Mountain Lake and the Arapaho/Roosevelt National Forests are

just minutes away.

Winter Sports & Biking: Hit the slopes or downhill bike trails at Granby Ranch Ski

Resort (15 minutes) or Winter Park Ski Resort (30 minutes). Snowmobiling, ice

fishing, and cross-country skiing are standard winter pastimes, and the property

features its own sledding hills.

For the equestrian enthusiast, Parlay Ranch offers an ideal environment. The topography provides a perfect foundation for a stable and paddocks, while the expansive adjacent BLM land serves as an extension of your own property, offering miles of private-feeling trail riding directly from your gate. Within this expansive 11,000-acre BLM landscape lies the Headwaters Trail System, featuring over 28 miles of dedicated hiking and horseback riding trails that connect directly into the vast Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests beyond.

Region & Climate

Granby offers an authentic four-season lifestyle. The high-country climate provides abundant sunshine and distinct seasons, from lush, mild summers and vibrant golden autumns to crisp springs and snowy winters that transform the landscape into a recreational wonderland. This property is a perfect primary residence or a legacy mountain getaway.

Location

Located just 4 miles outside of Granby via Highway 125, the property is a quick 7-

minute drive to local dining, groceries, and regional transit, yet provides the absolute

peace, quiet, and security of an exclusive, gated mountaintop retreat.
