Hidden Falls Ranch

Farm Description

Hidden Falls Ranch is a magical compound with sunrise, sunset and mountain views and features multiple residences, a significant stable and extensive equestrian infrastructure on a lushly landscaped and professionally lit and irrigated 74-acre site.

The main house is an expanded 3-bedroom/2-bathroom log home with a glass-enclosed wrap-around atrium, heated greenhouse and multiple porches, decks and patios. The adjacent gardens feature four waterfalls feeding into two landscaped ponds, and views into the woods. The hidden studio apartment is an ideal spot for hosting overnight guests or as a caretaker’s residence, and the sprawling guest suite over the original barn on the property is a delightful home unto itself with a sprawling living area, delightful kitchen, double-sided propane fireplace which opens to the living room and bedroom, and decking with a gazebo high above the beautiful property and natural waterfalls below. The “summer apartment” below is a cool and shady spot to entertain outdoors in the warmer months, and has both indoor and outdoor living spaces, kitchen and bathroom. And tucked away there’s a shady gazebo overlooking the “Hidden Falls” and a stream - a truly romantic and transporting spot.

Above and beyond what this property offers as a country home compound, the equestrian attributes are what set it apart. The professionally designed and meticulously constructed 60’x84’ stable was built with owner convenience and animal safety as paramount, was sited for excellent ventilation and features front and back overhangs and a large dry lot behind. The 11-stalls are of European manufacture with baked-on enamel paint and have kick-proof walls and mattresses under rubber mats; there are extra-thick rubber pavers in the entry aisle and a wash stall with hot and cold water and a non-slip surface as well. The tack and feed room is heated and has a sink, refrigerator and half-bath. There are plenty of outlets and fans, as well as a second-story hayloft and lots of storage. The 140’x250’ outdoor ring with 12’x16’ run-in shed is brightly lit with excellent drainage and sand footing and there are bridle paths to the barn. There’s an additional 100’x200’ ring with a stone base that drains into the stream; just add the top footing and it’s ready to go and indoor-ready. The 60’ round pen is lit and drains well too and has ideal surface footing. Among the fields, paddocks and pastures there are many frost-free hydrants with individual shut-offs, electrical outlets, electric fencing, run-in sheds, a roughly 3-acre sand and grass riding area, and there are bridle paths through the woods, many of which are stream-lined. A generously sized stone-based parking area by the stable comfortably accommodates trailers and farm equipment. The 74 acres of Hidden Falls Ranch are comprised of ten distinct land parcels, which offer the buyer options for further development and alternate uses. Crafted with passion by the owner over the last 20+ years, this fine country equine property is ready for its next custodian to care for it with love.
