Diamond K Bar Ranch: A Legacy Property Along the Animas River

A Rare Blend of Water, Land, and Lifestyle

Where sunsets paint the horizon and the Animas River sings through the valley, you’ll find Diamond K Bar Ranch—a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity spanning 588 acres of fertile ground and rich heritage. With over 2 miles of river frontage and the number one water right off the Animas River, this estate is more than land—it’s a legacy.

The Animas, which flows directly into the world-renowned San Juan River, makes this ranch a dream for anglers, adventurers, and conservationists alike. Water is life here, and it fuels everything from agriculture to recreation.

A Working Ranch with Modern Innovation

Diamond K Bar Ranch is as productive as it is breathtaking. Cell phone–controlled irrigation systems power thriving hay production across fertile fields, while cottonwoods and open meadows provide habitat for wildlife. The land is home to elk, deer, and turkey, with private land hunting tags available for outdoor enthusiasts. The ranch borders 157,000 acres of BLM land, extending your access to endless adventure.

Agricultural infrastructure is ready and robust: a full livestock barn and feeding lot, arena, mechanical shop, hay storage facilities, and six greenhouses offer room to expand into farming or horticulture ventures.

Space for Family, Guests, and Staff

The property features three homes, ideal for family, guests, or ranch staff—each offering comfort in the heart of this sweeping estate. With no conservation easements, the land remains versatile, offering both freedom and future potential for parcel division if desired.

Recreation Meets Convenience

While the ranch feels worlds away, you’re less than 20 minutes from Durango, Colorado for shopping, dining, and air travel, and just a short drive to Farmington, New Mexico for additional services. World-class skiing is about an hour away, giving you quick access to the best of the Four Corners lifestyle.

Your Legacy Begins Here

Diamond K Bar Ranch is more than an investment—it’s a sanctuary, a working powerhouse, and a multi-generational legacy waiting for its next steward. Whether you envision it as a private hunting retreat, an agricultural hub, or a heritage estate, this property embodies the rare balance of land, water, and opportunity.
