Description
This is a rare opportunity to own a versatile and highly productive farm in Southern Colorado, just a short drive from Trinidad, with panoramic views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Spanish Peaks, and Fisher’s Peak, all overlooking the scenic Purgatoire River Valley.
Situated on blacktop County Road 40, the property offers convenient year-round access and an outstanding combination of irrigated farmland, grazing ground, and development potential. The farm includes approximately 100 acres of irrigated land, supplied by 2,808 shares of priority water from the Hoehne Ditch Company—one of the region’s most established and valuable sources of irrigation water. This volume of water rights offers excellent production security and long-term value in an increasingly water-conscious market.
The land has been historically planted in alfalfa, triticale, and other forage crops, and is ready for continued agricultural use, expansion into specialty crops, or conversion into pasture or rotational grazing. An additional 40± acres of dryland provide space for grazing, buffer zones, or future projects.
Improvements include a comfortable ranch-style home, along with a functional array of outbuildings such as a barn, shop, loafing sheds, and fenced pens with water tanks, offering everything needed to support livestock or farm operations. The infrastructure, while dated, is in good working condition and provides a solid foundation for any updates or customizations a new owner may wish to pursue.
A major advantage of this property is its three city water taps, in addition to a domestic well, which provide ample capacity for additional homes, workshops, guest houses, or other structures. Whether you’re looking to build a multi-family agricultural operation, invest in future development potential, or simply enjoy a peaceful rural lifestyle with room to grow, this farm offers flexibility that is hard to find.
Set in a prime location just minutes from the full amenities of Trinidad, with outstanding views of some of Colorado’s most iconic mountain ranges, this farm checks all the boxes: reliable water, strong soils, usable infrastructure, and exceptional scenery. Whether you’re a producer, investor, or someone seeking a scenic and functional rural retreat, this is a property that truly delivers.
