EXCEPTIONAL PRIVACY, SURROUNDED BY HUNDREDS OF ACRES OF LAND UNDER CONSERVATION EASEMENT! Discover 40 acres of beautiful Colorado ranch land in the scenic Bijou Basin, where native grasslands, gently rolling hills, and sweeping views of granite ridges covered in ponderosa pines create an extraordinary setting for your Colorado lifestyle.
Located in Elbert County, this partially fenced property offers wide-open space, peaceful surroundings, spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and brilliant star-filled night skies. The surrounding landscape provides a remarkable sense of seclusion, while the property remains accessible from County Road 86, approximately 9.5 miles from Elbert and 20 miles from Kiowa.
With Agricultural zoning, no HOA, and no covenants, the possibilities are extensive. Envision a custom ranch home, equestrian property, hobby farm, recreational retreat, or an off-grid getaway designed around the natural beauty of the land. Gently rolling hills and expansive grasslands provide multiple potential homesite locations with excellent solar orientation and picturesque views in nearly every direction.
Wildlife is part of the experience, with elk, mule deer, pronghorn, and numerous native species inhabiting the surrounding area. Located within Colorado Game Management Unit 105, the property offers opportunities for wildlife viewing, photography, horseback riding, hiking, and outdoor recreation.
Whether your vision includes horses, livestock, a private country estate, or simply a peaceful escape from the demands of everyday life, Bijou Basin Ranch offers the space and freedom to make it your own.
