Set on 35 acres with wide-open valley and sunset views, 42450 McGuire Lane is the kind of property ranch and land buyers look for but rarely find--private, usable, and thoughtfully laid out for both living and working. Just minutes from downtown Hayden, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers true single-level convenience with an efficient 1,703-sq-ft floor plan, radiant in-floor heat, and a wood-burning stove that keeps the home warm through Colorado's coldest months. A new well was dug in 2025. The open-concept kitchen and living area extend to a west-facing deck overlooking rolling pastureland--an ideal vantage point to watch livestock, wildlife, or evening alpenglow settle across the valley. The primary suite includes a private bath, and two additional bedrooms plus main-level laundry make the home practical for full-time ranch living. The land is the real centerpiece: 35 acres of fully fenced, usable ground with ample space for horses, cattle, or a small agricultural operation. A barn provides room for equipment, hay, tack, or workshop needs, and the acreage offers flexibility for grazing, riding, or future improvements. Located approximately 4 miles from Hayden's local amenities--including Wild Goose Coffee, Dry Creek Park trails, and Lincoln Avenue--and just 7 miles from Yampa Valley Regional Airport, the property balances rural independence with easy access to town and travel. Additional highlights include radiant heat throughout, generous parking areas for trailers and equipment, and unobstructed views in every direction. Experience the freedom of ranch-style living with modern comfort, usable acreage, and close proximity to Steamboat Springs and the wider Yampa Valley.
