Land with Home for Sale in Fountain, Colorado
16880-16885 Old Pueblo Rd, Fountain, CO 80817
165 Acres on Fountain Creek | Pikes Peak Views | 20 Minutes South of Colorado Springs | Across from Pikes Peak International Raceway
A truly rare 165-acre legacy holding and the expansive land, recreation, and income-producing component of Cottonwood Ranch. Nearly one mile of Fountain Creek frontage winds through mature cottonwood groves, open pasture, wildlife habitat, and secluded recreational acreage, creating a remarkable combination of water, privacy, scale, and sweeping Front Range views.
Approximately seven miles of established private motocross and riding trails are thoughtfully integrated throughout the property, supported by a dedicated trailhead and warm-up area — an extraordinary recreational amenity rarely found on acreage of this scale.
Two detached, income-producing residences provide immediate utility and flexibility: a spacious 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with detached two-car garage, plus a 3-bedroom, 1-bath residence well suited for rental income, on-site management, extended family, or guest accommodations. Multiple operational wells, water rights, agricultural utility, fenced areas, and existing infrastructure further enhance the property's versatility.
Approximately 165 contiguous acres meet the minimum acreage threshold for Colorado's Landowner Preference Program, offering potential preference in the allocation of qualifying big-game licenses. Abundant wildlife and long-standing recreational use further distinguish this unique stretch of Fountain Creek.
Just off I-25 and directly across from Pikes Peak International Raceway, the property combines exceptional accessibility with the character of a private Colorado landholding. Agriculture, recreation, conservation, income production, land banking, or other future opportunities — this is land with remarkable optionality.
Also available as part of the approximately 200-acre combined Cottonwood Ranch offering.
Own the land. Shape the vision. Build the legacy.
