Description

Perfect spot to create your dream lifestyle with off-grid living. If you’re looking to own a reasonably sized and priced, nice parcel of land with plenty of privacy to make a home, ranch, or farm, this is your answer. The previous owner lived on and used this 40-acre parcel as a working ranch and organic seed farm.  If you are looking to farm, working with the USDA you may be able to qualify for government loan programs and assistance. You can choose to pick up from there or make it your own, lots of possibilities.

The property has a 16 x 16 structure that was drywalled and electric plumbed. The East side of the parcel borders an arroyo, where a dam can be built to store water or get a well permit and continue with the previous plans for drilling a well. You also have the option of electric service as there are power poles running along the Southern property line. The parcel is easy to access with County Road – Bear Springs Trail Rd. running to the lot and just 8 miles from paved highway 350. Only approx. 48 miles South to Trinidad or North to La Junta. Trinidad, the county seat, has increasingly become more popular year after year with so much to do and see  from hiking (for example Fishers Peak State Park open in 2020 – one of the newest in Colorado 2020), biking, camping, ATV/OHV and more.

Lathrop State Park

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Colorado’s first state park, Lathrop State Park, is 1,460 acres of recreational enjoyment nestled in the shadow of the Spanish Peaks in Southern Colorado.

The park’s two lakes offer a variety of boating and angling opportunities for all types of water recreation. Martin Lake offers water skiing, power and sail boating. Because Martin is a warm-water lake, it makes it great for swimmers. Horseshoe Lake is a peaceful haven for canoeists, kayakers, sailors and other boaters at wakeless speeds. Catfish, bass, walleye, trout and blue gill thrive in both lakes. Horseshoe Lake is known for its large tiger muskies.
