Most buyers have to choose. You can have the beautiful, finished home, or you can have the land and the barn, but rarely both in one place. 1688 Espen Trail is the exception.
This custom 2022 home lives easy on one level and is finished to a standard the area rarely offers. A vaulted great room anchored by a stacked-stone gas fireplace opens to a solid-granite island kitchen and a dining area framed by west-facing windows that catch the Wyoming sunset. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs through the living spaces, with carpet in the bedrooms and tile in the baths. The primary suite is a true retreat, with a five-piece bath, a separate shower, and his-and-hers walk-in closets. In all, the home offers five bedrooms: three on the main level and two in the fully finished basement, each with an egress window and a closet, alongside a second living area, an office, and a wet bar. On-demand tankless hot water, a water softener, central air, a 50-year hail-rated roof, fiber-optic internet, and a three-car attached heated garage make it genuinely move-in ready.
Step outside and the property earns its keep. Two insulated outbuildings, matched to the home in stone and steel and each on its own gated, fenced access, give you room most estates simply do not have. The horse barn is set up with two box stalls off a wide center aisle, a wash bay with hot and cold water and a trenched drain, tack and feed rooms, and a heated shop with a full bath, with tall drive-through doors that open to the pasture. A second insulated building handles the RV, the gooseneck, and the gear, with a 30-amp plug and a storage loft. Frost-free hydrants are set across the fully fenced 4.89 acres, the perimeter is finished in luxury vinyl fencing with upgraded metal gates, and the drives are paved. It is honest about what it is: not a working ranch, but a first-class place to keep a horse or two close to home.
All of this sits on open Wyoming prairie with long views to the west, about half a mile from the Little Bear Inn and roughly 5.5 miles from Cheyenne, Starbucks, and Albertsons, on paved roads the whole way. You get the space and the quiet without giving up the conveniences of town.
Homes that pair this level of finish with this much usable acreage and outbuilding space do not come along often. Come see 1688 Espen Trail in person, because it lives even better than it photographs. Offered at $1,299,000 by #1 Properties Ranch and Recreation with Leah Woods. Buyer to verify all data.

Can you keep horses on the property?

The barn is set up with two box stalls, a wash bay, and tack and feed rooms. Buyer to verify permitted uses.
What are the outbuildings?
Two insulated buildings, each matched to the home and separately gated and fenced. The horse barn includes two box stalls, a wash bay with hot and cold water, tack and feed rooms, and a heated shop with a full bath. A second insulated building offers RV and trailer storage with a 30-amp plug and a storage loft, and it clears a full living-quarters trailer.
