Great opportunity to own this sizable turnkey grazing ranch! Located just minutes from the town of Springfield, CO, Arbuthnots’ Farms has been meticulously kept for decades and is ready to go to a new home! The owner's deep appreciation for the land throughout the years, focusing on moderate grazing, has been rewarded with maximum yearly regenerative grass growth. With great access, improvements, and infrastructure, this is a great investment opportunity, addition to your existing ranch, or chance to start your legacy! Water: Two Butte Creek crosses the entire northern portion of the ranch, providing seasonal live water between its winding banks. Even though the creek is seasonal, there are numerous stretches of the creek that hold water year-round as evidenced in the photos. These large “ponds” provide ample water sources for livestock, as well as attract wildlife from all directions. In addition to Two Butte Creek, there is a piped water system to 6 separate stock tanks spread throughout the ranch. This system is fed from a nearby registered water well owned by the seller, which will be a shared deeded water source for the buyer. Separately metered, the majority of the system is a 2” PVC line, while a portion was replaced in 2022 with 2” poly line. The large stock tanks can easily provide plenty of livestock water year-round. Income: The entire ranch is currently enrolled in a Wind Energy Contract paying $3/acre. There are no turbines present, but there is a large wind turbine farm just over a mile north of the ranch. Future development is possible, increasing the return significantly. In addition, 3,306 acres of the ranch are enrolled in the CRP Grasslands Program, which pays $49,592.25/year through 2037. Grazing is NOT restricted from these acres in the Grasslands program, so the ranch can be grazed in its entirety. The ranch has also benefited from a grazing lease historically paying up to $7/acre.
