3255 N RAMPART RANGE RD, LITTLETON, CO 80125

Surrounded by the dramatic red sandstone formations that define the Roxborough landscape, Roxborough Reserve is a rare 27± acre inholding offering exceptional privacy, direct access to thousands of acres of protected open space, and a setting that feels far removed from the city despite being just 40 minutes from Downtown Denver and 10 miles south of Littleton. A permitted residential well is already in place, and the undeveloped property includes rights to two residential building sites, creating a unique opportunity to establish a legacy property within one of Colorado’s most iconic Front Range settings. With spectacular views, abundant wildlife, and recreation in every direction, Roxborough Reserve combines the seclusion of a private wilderness retreat with the convenience of nearby urban amenities.

Overview

While Roxborough Reserve encompasses just 27± acres, it is surrounded by more than 3,300 acres of protected state land, with the vast expanse of the Pike National Forest extending beyond the property to the west. The combination creates a property that lives far larger than its deeded acreage and offers a remarkable sense of privacy and seclusion just 40 minutes from Downtown Denver.

Improvements

Vacant land with a permitted residential well and rights to two residential building sites.
