This means that you can get to and from the office quickly, which will enable you to spend more time with your horses. This is an important consideration because large equestrian properties generally require significant care and maintenance that you simply wouldn’t be able to keep up alone if you were spending all of your time either at work or commuting to and from the office. Evergreen also has a good selection of grocery stores, dental and medical facilities, entertainment options, and other amenities, meaning that you won’t have to travel far to find all the luxuries and day-to-day essentials that you need. Long meandering lanes and no near neighbors can seem like an idyllic dream, but the reality of this kind of isolated living can be very different: Evergreen allows its equestrian homeowners to have the illusion of living in isolation whilst in reality having the convenience of close neighbors, good amenities, and great transport links. It is a community that offers the best of both worlds: when you move to Evergreen, Colorado, you really can have it all.

Finally, Evergreen boasts a wonderful network of easy-access trails for riders of all abilities, meaning that as well as exercising your horses on your own property, you will also be able to take them off the beaten path to enjoy riding within the wider community, and in different environments.

Evergreen is famed for its alpine meadows and abundance of wildflowers, which is why it is important when choosing your horse-friendly home that you thoroughly assess the types of plants, flowers, and grasses that grow on your property. Whilst it is a very rare occurrence, some of the plants and flowers that grow in Colorado are toxic to horses, and excessive consumption of them can lead to permanent neurological damage or even death. Your Evergreen equestrian real estate specialist will be able to advise you on the pros and cons of each property you choose to look at and also put you in touch with a toxicology specialist if you have any concerns about any of the plant life on the properties you are considering. It is also worth familiarizing yourself with some of the most dangerous plants that are native to Colorado so that you can prevent your horses from eating anything they shouldn’t and seek appropriate treatment for your horses should they consume anything toxic before their ingestion can be prevented.

How many acres do I need for horses in Evergreen?

The county zoning for the address sets it, and it ranges from one horse per acre on some rural-residential lots to no limit on agricultural land. Two horses on two to five acres with a dry lot is the common Evergreen setup.

Can I board horses or give lessons on the property?

Only where the zoning and the covenants allow a commercial equine use. Some Jefferson County lots do; many subdivisions do not. A Kenna agent checks both before you count on the income.

Does the well come with the house?

The well and its permit transfer with the land, and the permit's allowed use goes with it. If the permit is household-use-only, watering horses from it is not allowed; a change of use is a state application, not a promise from the seller.
