Wide open space and a sweeping bowl of mountain views define this AG-zoned 40-acre parcel east of Guffey, where rolling grasslands stretch beneath the Collegiate Peaks, Sangre de Cristo Range, and countless horizons in between. The terrain is remarkably usable, offering the kind of ground that appeals to ranchers, horse owners, homesteaders, and anyone seeking room to spread out without giving up scenery. Gentle contours create visual interest across the landscape while preserving the flexibility to build, graze livestock, ride horses, or simply enjoy a quieter pace surrounded by Colorado's high-country ranchlands. Unlike heavily wooded parcels that require extensive clearing before plans can begin, this property provides an open canvas where future improvements can take shape with far fewer obstacles. Completely unimproved and offered without HOA restrictions or covenants, the land allows owners to pursue their own vision while enjoying the freedom that comes with a true metes-and-bounds holding. The acreage qualifies for a domestic well permit, and excellent solar exposure supports off-grid living in an area where many neighboring properties operate independently. Antelope, elk, mule deer, and turkey are common throughout the surrounding country, reinforcing the area's long-standing connection to ranching, wildlife, and outdoor recreation. Located just a few miles from the quaint town of Guffey, the property enjoys convenient access to local eateries, live music, and community events, while larger services, shopping, and healthcare are available in Cañon City and Woodland Park. Nearby opportunities for fishing, hiking, hunting, rafting, and exploring public lands add to the appeal, but the true value here is the land itself: forty acres of usable ground, expansive views, and the opportunity to create something lasting in a part of Colorado that still values open space!

Pikes Peak steals the show from the premier build site on this 40.89± acre parcel east of Guffey, but the views are only part of the story. Rolling hills climb from timbered draws and dense stands of pine and aspen to elevated ridgelines where the Front Range fills the horizon. Granite outcroppings break through the landscape, open parks give way to sheltered timber, and the terrain changes enough across the property to create distinctly different settings from one end to the other. The highest portions capture the biggest views, while lower areas offer privacy among the trees and additional building opportunities. Completely unimproved and AG-zoned, this metes-and-bounds parcel remains a blank slate with no HOA, no covenants, and eligibility for a domestic well. Off-grid solar is the practical choice for most owners in this area, where independence remains part of daily life. Elk, mule deer, pronghorn, and turkey regularly travel through the property, adding to its appeal for hunters, wildlife watchers, and outdoor enthusiasts. Located approximately 7 miles from the quaint town of Guffey, the property feels a world away from crowded cities and subdivisions, yet remains within reach of the live music, local eateries, community events, and small-town character that define this corner of Park County. Larger services, shopping, healthcare, and everyday necessities are available in Cañon City and Woodland Park. Recreation extends in every direction with access to Pike National Forest, Eleven Mile Reservoir, Spinney Mountain Reservoir, the Dream Stream, and thousands of acres of public land. Fishing, hiking, hunting, whitewater rafting, zip lining, helicopter tours, and Royal Gorge attractions keep the region active throughout the year. Whether envisioned as a mountain getaway, future homesite, hunting basecamp, or simply a place to enjoy remarkable scenery and privacy, this property delivers the freedom that continues to draw buyers to this part of the Rockies!

From multiple vantage points across the property, the panorama stretches across the Front Range skyline and captures Castle Mountain, Saddle Mountain, McIntyre Mountain, Pisgah, and surrounding peaks. At approximately 8,680 feet, the terrain offers an inviting balance of open grazing country, natural draws, gentle contours, and sheltered pockets of timber that support both daily enjoyment and long-term versatility. Numerous homesite locations are positioned to take advantage of the views, privacy, solar exposure, creating opportunities for anything from a private mountain residence or equestrian retreat to a family ranch.

Access is provided from paved County Road 102 via Pinto Trail and Roan Trail, offering year-round convenience while preserving the privacy expected of a property of this scale. Utilities have already been extended into the larger ranch area.

Large tracts offering this combination of scenery, usability, hunting appeal, and long-term potential are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Colorado!

Scattered pine, vibrant aspen pockets, granite outcroppings, natural draws, and seasonal drainage corridors create a setting that feels both expansive and private, with countless vantage points overlooking the surrounding mountains and valleys. Wildlife thrives throughout the property, with frequent elk, mule deer, turkey, and antelope moving between the meadows and timber.

Whether your goal is to build, hunt, ranch, invest, conserve, or simply own a mountain in Colorado, this exceptional property delivers the space, freedom, and lasting significance to create something few will ever have the chance to call their own.
