Fremont County
Secluded Retreat On 40 Acres With Mountain Views
725 Van Egmond Dr Penrose, CO 81240
Description
This 40-acre property in Fremont County offers a private setting with diverse terrain, open views, and year-round access. Located about 15 minutes from Cañon City, it provides a balance of seclusion and proximity to town services. The land features rolling hills, natural cover, and clear vantage points across the surrounding mountain ranges. As a true end-of-the-road opportunity, the private gated driveway is accessed at the end of Van Egmond Dr.
Several improvements support recreational use, camping, and future planning. A 16' x 20' insulated and drywalled shed serves as a comfortable base for weekend stays, with a foot pump sink in the main room and a sink and composting toilet in the bathroom. A 1400-gallon cistern is included for water storage. The property also has two additional storage sheds, shelving, and a windbreak/overhang for equipment protection.
Two improved shooting berms support target practice for both short and extended range use. Wildlife activity is common in the area, and the property sits within Colorado GMU 84. There is no HOA, allowing a range of future build potential, outdoor activities, and land-use options.
Additional items included in the sale are two like-new 2022 Tracker 300 ATVs, a Kendon utility trailer, and a Predator gas generator. Boundary lines shown in mapping materials are approximate.
Nearby communities include Penrose, Cañon City, and Florence. Access to services, groceries, and supplies is convenient while maintaining a quiet, private setting.
This property offers a practical base for outdoor recreation, hunting access in the region, and long-term land ownership in a growing part of Fremont County.
