Property Description
Seller motivated: 5.16 acres near Fort Garland with no HOA, county-maintained dirt-road access nearby, rolling terrain, mountain and valley views, gorgeous night skies, and strong off-grid potential. This is an affordable Southern Colorado land opportunity for a buyer who wants space, views, wildlife, and room to plan a future basecamp, weekend retreat, or long-term land hold.
The property sits around 8,000 feet with rolling/sloped rocky terrain and some tree cover, giving it character, privacy, and view potential. An irrigation ditch runs along the lower boundary and helps define the conservation-area side of the property, adding a nice natural buffer. Because that lower ditch area is not the practical access point, true access is expected to come from above. Preferred access appears to be from the upper cul-de-sac area, but another lot sits between that road and this property, so an easement or other legal access solution may be needed. Due to access considerations, seller is open to reviewing offers.
Zoned Rural Residential in Costilla County, with no HOA and a reported 600 sq ft minimum build size per county guidance. No power, water, septic, or sewer is currently on-site, giving buyers a blank-slate off-grid setup to design around their own plans. Buyer should verify legal access, easements, ditch/road use, well/cistern, solar, septic, internet, zoning, and intended use. Property was acquired by Treasurer's Deed in 2019; buyer should confirm title insurability, quiet-title options, timing, and closing requirements with a title company or attorney.
Approximate driving distances from the property: 2 miles to Fort Garland, 4 miles to Mountain Home Reservoir, 6 miles to Blanca, 17 miles to San Luis, 32 miles to Great Sand Dunes National Park, 33 miles to Alamosa, and 45 miles to Sand Dunes Recreation. Request the parcel map, GPS coordinates, access notes, and county verification items to evaluate this acreage with confidence.
