40 gorgeous acres in Colorado's plains and prairies

If youve been dreaming of owning land in Colorado, or simply having a space to escape traffic, and crowds; this is the perfect lot! 40 rolling acres ~ road access ~ the ability to build or camp on the property ~ power nearby... There are so many reasons to buy this property!

This 40-acre property, located in Las Animas County, CO, offers a stunning off-the-grid retreat under the big Western skies of rural Colorado. Known as the canyon and plains region, people choose southeast Colorado for a quieter side of the state with open space and star-soaked skies. Yet, youre just 1.5 hours southeast of Pueblo or three hours southeast of the mountains of Denver. Southeastern Colorado offers outdoor recreation with fewer tourists: Youll have access to hiking, biking, horseback riding, boating, fishing, and wildlife, which youll see on your own property. A few minutes away is La Junta, Colorado for 30 local and chain restaurants, several farmers markets, lodging options, and the conveniences of groceries and gas.

View the photos and drone footage to fully take in how much this space has to offer: The hilly property contains a nice mix of open and wooded areas. Water flows/creek areas make up portions of the east and west sides of the property. Build a small cabin, a larger home, or bring a mobile or manufactured home onto the property. RV camping is permitted for up to one week a month. An access road runs through the property, and power poles are located near the lot.
