Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Agate, Colorado
35820 County Road 160, Agate, CO 80101
36 acres of open eastern Colorado plains land in Agate, about an hour east of Denver. Easy access via County Road 160, fenced on three sides, power nearby, and flat to gently rolling native grassland that is usable from corner to corner. A well and septic would be needed to build, and no HOA means you use the land on your own terms.
Big sky, open prairie stretching to the horizon, and wildlife already on the property. Antelope are a common sight in this stretch of Elbert County, along with deer and other native plains species, making this a solid option for seasonal hunting or simply enjoying the kind of quiet that eastern Colorado does better than anywhere.
What makes this parcel stand out beyond the scenery is the zoning. At 36 acres in Elbert County’s Agriculture district, you unlock the most permissive land use treatment in the county. Build a primary home plus a full size detached guest house or rental unit with no size cap, run horses, cattle, or other livestock with no county density limits, put up barns and outbuildings, and operate a short-term rental, all by right without special county approval.
For the buyer looking for a large, usable parcel with genuine flexibility within an hour of the Denver metro, this one is hard to match at this acreage and price point in Elbert County.
