The rolling to gently sloping terrain offers multiple build sites, whether you’re planning a small cabin, setting up camp while you build, or creating a full-time homestead from the ground up. With no covenants and R-1 zoning, you have the freedom to do it your way—bring in a manufactured home, build over time, or design a self-sufficient setup that fits your vision.

If you’re looking to expand, the adjacent parcel is also available—giving you the option to own nearly 5 acres for additional space, animals, gardens, or simply more room to spread out. The Arkansas River Valley of Southern Colorado is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, offering gold medal fishing, world-class whitewater rafting, and endless hiking trails surrounded by stunning mountain scenery. With direct access to BLM land, Texas Creek ATV Park, and the iconic Royal Gorge, adventure is at your doorstep. The area’s charming mountain towns like Salida, Westcliffe, and Cañon City provide a perfect blend of history, art, and modern amenities, while hot springs, rock climbing, and dark sky stargazing make it a true year-round retreat. Whether you're seeking seclusion, recreation, or breathtaking views, this region delivers the ultimate Colorado mountain lifestyle. If you’ve been looking for a place to get started—grow your own food, live more independently, or just have a basecamp in Colorado—this property gives you the space and flexibility to make it happen.
