Just outside the town of Larkspur, at the base of Monkey Face and along the banks of East Plum Creek, lies one of the last large, untouched holdings in the valley — a rare 76.57± acre legacy property offering privacy, water, wildlife, and long-term upside. With nearly a quarter mile of Plum Creek running through the land, and a blend of towering mature pines and open meadows, this property offers a setting that is increasingly difficult to find along the Front Range. The north portion presents a trophy homesite opportunity with the scale and seclusion to support a custom estate, while the south acreage lends itself naturally to an equestrian compound. For those looking at long-term investment potential, subdivision concepts have already been explored, creating flexibility for a boutique luxury development or phased estate parcels. Possibilities include potential for five-acre rural estate homesites thoughtfully arranged around preserved open space to maintain the land’s natural beauty, privacy, and recreational opportunities. Large acreage on both the north and south sides of Fox Farm Road provides convenient access and multiple ingress and egress options for flexible estate or development planning. Wildlife moves naturally through the creek corridor and mature pine forests, with elk, mule deer, whitetail deer, and wild turkey regularly present, reinforcing the sense of Colorado ranch living, just minutes from town and I-25 access. This is not simply land — it is an opportunity to create one of the premier private estates in Douglas County, or to steward and shape a rare large-acreage asset in a highly desirable growth corridor between Denver and Colorado Springs.

Agricultural One District
To provide areas for a wide range of farming, ranching, or tree farming activities and the preservation of such land for its open rural character providing a physical and visual separation between urban centers.; Urban development within this district is strongly discouraged. Agricultural land use can be an efficient means of conserving natural resources, constituting an important physical, environmental, social, aesthetic, and economic asset to both the urban and rural residents of the County. Expansion of urban development into rural areas is a matter of public concern because of the potential of unnecessary increases in service costs, conflicts between agricultural and urban activities, and the loss of open space and the natural landscape. Development consideration may be given where it would serve to preserve agricultural land or open space, and promote a design that is sensitive to the natural land features in accordance with the intent of the Douglas County Comprehensive Master Plan, as amended.; The A-1 zone district is characterized by large-acreage farms, ranches, open areas, farm houses, units for agricultural workers and their families, and other uses allowed which enhance and promote the openness and general rural nature characteristic of the County.
