Description

The 167± acre Clifton Meadows located 45 minutes from Downtown Denver near the town centers of Evergreen and Conifer along the Highway 285 corridor, is unique amongst its competitors due to its mix of recreational qualities, future development qualities and immediate potential for cash flow.

The landscape features rolling mountain meadows, healthy ponderosa pine and aspen stands, and sweeping views across the foothills and snowcapped peaks to the west. Internal ranch roads and gentle topography make the property easy to navigate, connecting multiple residential structures and potential building sites. Three homes, including the historic Clifton House, have been recently refinished. All three of the houses have operated as successful short-term rentals. The total counts between the three homes is 14 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.

Clifton Meadows offers a strong foundation for thoughtful development. There is no conservation easement on Clifton Meadows. A couple identified opportunities could be the subdivision of the ranch into 10-acre residential lots or potential inclusion in Jefferson County’s Rural Cluster Development Program, allowing for a mix of residential and open-space planning. To support development, water rights will be sold to a new owner. These rights can be allocated by a developer to individual home lots. They could also be used to create ponds as a shared amenity. A 5.3± acre parcel with P-D zoning allows for commercial use, including events, weddings, or small-scale hospitality operations, providing income-generating potential alongside residential or recreational enjoyment.

On the big game hunting side of things, the ranch is also eligible for participation in Colorado’s Landowner Preference Program (LPP) for private land elk and deer hunting opportunities within Game Management Unit 461.

The ranch can be expanded by adding the contiguous 106+/- acre ranch known as the Conley Ranch, also being marketed by Confluence Land Company.
