Description
Located in Las Animas County, Colorado, just outside the small rural community of Model, this 35.5± acre tract offers a rare opportunity to own affordable acreage in southeastern Colorado. Priced at $35,000, this property presents a versatile option for recreational use, camping, and long-term land investment in a region known for wide-open spaces, strong rural character, and proximity to major outdoor and public land resources.
The parcel features flat topography, making it highly usable for camping setups, RV access, or future improvements depending on buyer intent and county regulations. The land is covered in native vegetation, including mountain cholla and other high plains plant life, providing a natural setting that reflects the true character of southeastern Colorado’s shortgrass prairie and high desert transition zone.
Access to the property is conveniently located just a short drive from State Highway 350, a primary corridor connecting rural communities and recreational lands throughout Las Animas County. This proximity allows for relatively easy access while still maintaining a quiet, secluded setting away from major development and urban activity.
The surrounding region is known for its vast open landscapes, ranching heritage, and proximity to large tracts of public and restricted-use land. The property sits near the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, a well-known military training area that encompasses a large expanse of open terrain. While the site itself is restricted, its presence underscores the expansive, undeveloped nature of the surrounding region and contributes to the preservation of open space in the area.
Located within Colorado Parks and Wildlife GMU 134, this area supports a healthy presence of native wildlife, commonly including mule deer, pronghorn antelope, coyotes, and a variety of upland bird species. The surrounding landscape offers excellent opportunities for wildlife observation, seasonal recreation, and general outdoor enjoyment. With its wide-open terrain, minimal development, and low light pollution, the property also provides ideal conditions for stargazing, night skies, and off-grid camping experiences, making it well-suited for buyers seeking a quiet recreational retreat or basecamp in southeastern Colorado.
With increasing interest in rural Colorado land ownership, parcels of this size and price point continue to draw attention from investors and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The lack of improvements provides a blank slate for future development or continued recreational use.
