About This Lot
Discover a rare opportunity to own 5,867± acres of highly diversified Colorado ranchland in Elbert County, located just south of Limon with convenient access via Highway 71 and county roads. This exceptional property has been held and carefully managed by the same family for over 130 years, offering a unique blend of agricultural productivity, recreational appeal, and generational legacy.
The ranch includes approximately 2,634.79 acres of cropland and over 3,000 acres of native grassland, providing a strong balance for both farming and livestock operations. Productive FSA base acres include 1,054.13 acres of wheat (28 bu. yield) and 233.41 acres of corn (38 bu. yield), with all future FSA payments to follow the crops in accordance with program guidelines. The seller will retain 100% of the 2026 wheat crop. Cropland is level to gently rolling, well-suited for continued dryland farming, while the expansive grassland offers excellent grazing capacity.
Improvements on the property support a fully operational ranch setup and include three residences, multiple outbuildings, ample grain storage, and two well-equipped shops. The landscape is further enhanced by spring-fed ponds and natural water sources, contributing to both livestock functionality and a thriving wildlife habitat. The property is well-known for its outstanding hunting opportunities, with abundant populations of mule deer and pronghorn antelope.
From nearly every point on the ranch, enjoy breathtaking, unobstructed views of Pikes Peak, adding to the property’s scenic and recreational value. Possession of improvements will be granted at closing, with cropland and grassland subject to any existing tenant rights. Seller will reserve one-half of the owned mineral rights in perpetuity. Real estate taxes for 2026 will be prorated to the date of closing (2025 taxes: $9,573.68).
Offering a compelling combination of income potential, operational capacity, and natural beauty, this legacy ranch represents a truly unique investment in the heart of eastern Colorado.
