ACREAGE & DESCRIPTION

• 347.2 acres of dry farm land

• 524.8 acres of grazing land

• 872 total deeded acres

Approximately 267.78 acres are utilized as dryland cropland and have recently been planted to wheat. An additional 74.42 acres are enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program, with the remaining acreage consisting primarily of native grass pasture suitable for livestock grazing and wildlife habitat.

This balance of cropland, CRP, and native pasture gives an operator flexibility to manage around changing weather, crop, and cattle markets. Whether incorporated into an existing operation or held as a stand-alone investment, the ranch offers a solid agricultural foundation.

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL

Beyond its current agricultural use, the property may offer potential for division. Priced at just $1,000 per deeded acre, its size, paved highway access, and low acquisition cost per acre create an attractive opportunity for a developer or land investor to purchase, divide, and reposition the property as rural acreage tracts.

CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAM

Approximately 74.42 acres are enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program through September 30, 2032, providing an annual payment of approximately $2,314.

WATER RESOURCES

Existing wells and a windmill provide established water infrastructure for agricultural and livestock use, adding functionality to the property’s farm-and-ranch capabilities.

LOCATION

The ranch lies directly along paved Colorado State Highway 94 near Rush, providing dependable year-round access across the Eastern Plains.

Colorado Springs offers major shopping, medical care, agricultural suppliers, dining, entertainment, and commercial air service through the Colorado Springs Airport. Limon provides additional shopping, lodging, restaurants, agricultural services, and convenient access to Interstate 70. Denver International Airport is also accessible for domestic and international travel.

Regional destinations include Paint Mines Interpretive Park, Garden of the Gods, and the Pikes Peak region.

The property offers genuine rural seclusion without being disconnected from the services, transportation, and recreational attractions of the Eastern Plains and Colorado’s Front Range.

CLIMATE

The Rush area receives approximately 15 inches of annual precipitation, with much of the moisture arriving during the spring and summer growing season. Abundant sunshine, low humidity, and native shortgrass prairie create an environment long associated with dryland farming and cattle production.

Warm growing seasons support dryland crops and native forage, while the region’s grass species are naturally adapted to the variable moisture conditions of the High Plains.

MINERALS

Fifty percent of the mineral interests currently owned by Seller will convey with the property.

RECREATION

The combination of native grass, cropland, and CRP creates habitat for pronghorn antelope, deer, upland birds, coyotes, raptors, and other plains wildlife.

Beyond its agricultural value, the ranch offers expansive horizons, uninterrupted sunsets, dark night skies, and the quiet sense of space that is increasingly difficult to find. Its open terrain is well suited for wildlife viewing, hunting, horseback riding, and exploring the property’s broad High Plains landscape.
