Description
This is your once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire over 685 assessed acres along the Oak Creek of Fremont County & create your legacy! This one-of-a-kind ranch that feels like a sanctuary as a result of the conservation easement & partnership with Colorado Open Lands preserving the land’s value continuing to protect its natural resources & beauty, wildlife, habitats and breathtaking panoramic mountain views. It incorporates 1 1/2 CFS of Adams ditch water rights & is located in one of Colorado’s most coveted locations just 8 miles south of Cañon City & 20 miles SE of the world-renowned Royal Gorge Bridge. The western portion of the property has a 120-acre border with San Isabel National Forest. The northern 160 acres are outside of the conservation easement and boasts the most scenic riparian areas of Oak Creek with tall cottonwoods flanking the banks. Possibilities are endless with the potential of subdividing it into four 40-acre parcels, applying for water wells and accessing the power line easement. These 160 acres can qualify for a significant tax credit if you choose to pursue an additional conservation easement. The ranch is groomed for the ultimate recreational & hunting experience with ATV & horseback riding trails plus equestrian facilities. Private land hunting vouchers for the Colorado Parks and Wildlife GMU area 69 are established & have been responsible for harvesting majestic trophy elk & deer. Additional wildlife attracted to the waterways on the property includes turkey, bobcat, bear, antelope, mountain lion & a large variety of native birds & vegetation. It is rare to find a ranch so raw in the natural beauty that has remained with one family owner for over two decades. All seller’s mineral interest, if any, shall transfer to buyer. Colorado Springs and Pueblo are both within a 1-hour drive, striking an ideal balance between tranquility and accessibility. Create your dynasty with a dramatic backdrop like a scene in A River Runs Through It.
