Description
The 4T Ranch is a rare opportunity to own one of Eastern Colorado’s premier legacy properties. Encompassing over 2,300 acres with more than 5 miles of Arkansas River frontage, this ranch blends highly productive farmland, outstanding hunting habitat, rich historical significance, and top-quality improvements into one turnkey operation. Of the total acreage, approximately 700 acres are irrigated tillable cropland supported by multiple water rights, making this one of the most reliable farming and grazing operations in the Arkansas River Valley. In addition to the river, Adobe Creek and Horse Creek also flow through the property, further enhancing water resources, habitat diversity, and recreational potential. The balance of the ranch is a diverse mix of river bottom, tree-lined sloughs, grass meadows, and wildlife habitat. For sportsmen, the 4T Ranch is unmatched. The combination of mature cottonwoods, tamarack, Russian olive, and thick brush provides prime cover for trophy whitetail deer, as well as elk, Merriam’s turkey, dove, and upland birds. With a private lake, sloughs, and extensive wetlands, the ranch is also a top-tier waterfowl property, offering both field and water setups for ducks and geese. The Arkansas River itself provides fishing opportunities along with additional hunting potential, while miles of maintained trails and roads provide excellent access throughout the ranch, including to both sides of the river along large stretches. The property is well improved with a new metal building featuring 2-bedroom, 2-bath living quarters and a massive shop/garage, ideal for ranch operations or guests. A remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath ranch home provides additional comfortable living, and a large metal garage/barn supplies ample equipment storage. Steeped in history, the ranch is located along the historic Santa Fe Trail, where pioneers, settlers, and traders once passed through this very land. Nearby, the Bent’s Old Fort National Historic Site preserves the story of the 1830s fur trade and life along the Arkansas River. Owning the 4T Ranch means becoming a steward of this important stretch of Colorado’s history, where the Santa Fe Trail and the Arkansas River shaped the settlement of the American West. With its river views, Adobe Creek, Horse Creek, abundant water, trophy hunting opportunities, and productive farmland, the 4T Ranch is an all-encompassing property. Conveniently located just minutes from Las Animas and La Junta, it offers excellent highway frontage and access while maintaining the privacy and seclusion of a true ranch retreat. Importantly, there are no conservation easements, giving the next owner complete flexibility. Whether your goal is to expand a row crop or cattle operation, manage a world-class hunting and fishing property, or simply enjoy the recreational lifestyle of a historic Colorado ranch, the 4T Ranch delivers on every level.
