If you’ve ever dreamed of building a place to getaway to your own specifications with room for a small farm and access to some of Colorado’s greatest outdoor attractions, and a seasonal CREEK, look no further. This 12.28 acre property (two adjoining lots) in the Sangre de Cristo Ranches is a perfect location for you!
While you are enjoying your almost 6 acres of Colorado paradise, you won’t have to worry about access to the basic necessities of life. The convenience store in Fort Garland is only a few minutes away. If you need more, grab a pizza at All-Gon Pizza in Fort Garland. Because of your proximity to Hwy 159, everything is easy to get to!
This lot is on Slegers Rd. There is a running creek at the rear of the property. You’ll also enjoy breathtaking views and easy access to Blanca Peak, Colorado’s fourth highest mountain! This 12+ acre property is located in the Sangre de Cristo Ranches (SDCR) subdivision. Just 35 miles from Alamosa where you will find all of the major big box stores (Walmart, Home Depot and more). Easy year around access from Hwy 159 since the roads are normally plowed when it snows. The lot is covered with sage, desert grasses, cactus, and some small pine trees with nice hills near the road offering privacy from the road. The terrain is slightly rolling terrain. The Mountain Home Reservoir is located just to the northwest (approx. 6.5 miles) and makes an excellent spot for some fishing, watching the elk herd, relaxation & recreation. You can also head south on Hwy 159 to Taos New Mexico where you will find a thriving art community.
The Great Sand Dunes National Park is to the north, San Isabel National Forest is a short drive east, the Rio Grande is 20 miles to the west. Recreation abounds in this gorgeous high altitude valley. The Alamosa Wildlife Refuge and many other public lands are all close by. Imagine camping, using your ATV or building a cabin on your beautiful land. Think of the memories you will have of hiking the national park and forest. You can live off the grid if you desire or connect to the power poles on the northern side of the property. It’s a delightful place to get away from it all, imagine decompressing as you drive to your own private getaway. If you need a taste of history, it’s about 30 miles to San Luis, the oldest town in Colorado.
Now is the time to get your piece of Wild Colorado!
