LEGAL DESCRIPTION
Longhorn Ranch Phase II Block 9 Lot 21 in Las Animas County, Colorado.
Assessor schedule number: 12225410
LOCATION
This property is located in the rolling hills about 45 minutes northeast of Trinidad, Colorado a very
short distance from the historic Santa Fe Trail.
The tiny town of Houghton, is about three miles South of the property and has only a few
residents. So does Thatcher, which is also about 5 miles to the Southwest.
PROPERTY DETAILS
The ranch is about 2043 feet by 908 feet by 1801 feet by about 800 feet. Please see lot 3 on the map.
The property has a very gentle slope from the road down to the back where there are large groves of
bushes. It would be a great horse property with lots of wide open space and good grass.
The subdivision comprised of 35 to 45 acre ranches is very quiet. One well per lot is allowed for
water on the property. It can be used for livestock and plants as well as for household use. Septic
systems are used, which is common in rural areas.
Wildlife are very plentiful in the area. I often times see pronghorn antelope near here, including this
large buck which was nearby. Their numbers seem to be on the increase.
A couple of miles to the northeast is the Comanche National Grassland which has thousands of acres
of Federal land that is open to the public for many kinds of uses including hiking, hunting, wildlife
watching and much more.
The weather in the area is great year round - not too cold in the winter and not too hot in summer,
and usually sunny. Views of the surrounding countryside from the property are wonderful, and you can
see for many miles. Springtime and summer in the area are especially nice.
