Metro Denver Luxury Homes For Sale

Property Description

Located on Raton Pass in southern Las Animas County, this 73.49-acre property offers a unique blend of rural living, agricultural utility, and abundant wildlife habitat. Spread across two contiguous parcels, the land showcases diverse terrain—open grazing meadows, stands of cottonwoods and pines, willows, and year-round live water from Raton Creek running the full length of the property.

A spacious welded steel barn anchors the agricultural improvements, featuring four finished horse stalls with outdoor runs, a heated workshop, a tack room, and a round pen. With wide drive-through doors, water access, power, and heat, the setup is ideal for equestrian use or small-scale ranching. Additional outbuildings include a greenhouse and a chicken coop, supporting a variety of homestead or hobby farming activities.

This property is well-suited for multiple uses—equestrian operations, grazing, hobby ranching, and recreation. Located in Colorado Game Management Unit (GMU) 851, the area supports strong populations of elk, mule deer, whitetail deer, wild turkey, bear, and mountain lion. Raton Creek, with its beaver ponds and varied habitat, draws consistent wildlife, while the property’s location near I-25 creates a natural corridor for game movement. Despite its easy access, the home is thoughtfully sited and completely hidden from the highway, offering peaceful seclusion and privacy.

The 3-bed, 3.5-bath, 3,600 sq ft home offers high ceilings, natural light, and wraparound outdoor living space. Well-maintained and recently updated, the home includes a durable metal roof, steel siding, a large deck, and a lower patio. A domestic well, cistern, and water filtration system provide reliable off-grid capability without dependence on municipal systems.

This well-rounded property combines usable acreage, live water, solid infrastructure, and natural beauty—ideal for those seeking a private Colorado lifestyle with room to live, work, and explore.
