Recreational Land for Sale in Pueblo, Colorado
Vaughn View Dr Pueblo, CO 81005
Located in tranquil Colorado ranch country, near the edge of the San Isabel National Forest, this 40-acre parcel has much on offer: a peaceful environment, mountain views, abundant wildlife, national forest access, and an unmatched sense of adventure.
Land
Just 11 miles north of Beulah, where the scenic high desert transitions to pine forest, this corner property is wooded with cedar and some pines, and features numerous meadows and lush grass, ideal for pasture. A dramatic 1/4-mile canyon runs through the property, with incredible rock formations and a creek bed that will periodically carry live water; nobody has been in this canyon for years, perhaps decades, making it ripe for exploration. Wildlife, including deer, elk, antelope, hawks, and eagles, are frequently on the property.
A driveway is already in place, leading to a large home site (already cleared) boasting an amazing Pikes Peak view, one of the best mountain views in the region.
This property shares just one boundary with a neighboring parcel, and is located inside Vaughn Ranch, a small ranch subdivision consisting of only 26 properties, each at least 35 acres in size. A keypad gate controls access to Vaughn Ranch, making for a private environment with next to no vehicle traffic. Vaughn property owners share a private access gate to the San Isabel National Forest; the gate is inaccessible to the general public. On a given day, a Vaughn property owner hiking or horseback riding in this portion of the forest will likely have it to himself or herself. This area of the national forest is for non-motorized use only.
The Vaughn community has an extensive fire protection infrastructure, and is just 3.5 miles from the Red Creek Fire Dept. A grazing arrangement with a local rancher ensures Vaughn property owners reap the considerable benefits of agricultural zoning. Vaughn property owners are not required to participate in the grazing arrangement.
At 40 acres, this parcel more than meets the acreage requirement for a domestic well. Neighboring wells are on record producing 10-15 gpm. Underground utilities (San Isabel Power, Beulahland Communications for phone and internet) are already in place at the property line.
There is no requirement to build on this property, but a home, guest home, barns, and outbuildings are allowed. Manufactured homes are not allowed.
This parcel would make a great horse property, HQ for an outdoor-oriented owner, or home site for anyone who enjoys an environment defined by mountain views, wildlife, and peace and quiet. Located in Colorado GMU 84. Elevation: 5,940'.
Directions
