Recreational Land for Sale in Central City, Colorado

Introducing the Nevadaville, Quartz Hill & Prosser Gulch Assemblage, a remarkable landholding within Colorado's Central Mining District. Consolidated by Bonanza Land LLC over three decades, the offering encompasses approximately 147 patented mining claims totaling 235 mostly contiguous acres across Gilpin County's historic gold-rush landscape.

When prospectors journeyed west under the rallying cry "Pike's Peak or Bust," Nevadaville emerged as one of Colorado Territory's important early mining towns. Today, it remains an evocative ghost town. The assemblage extends from Prosser Gulch through Nevadaville Valley, climbs Quartz Hill, and continues south toward Alps Hill, creating an exceptional cross-section of Colorado mining history.

The property reads as an open-air museum. Included are portions of historic Main Street, the Bon Ton Saloon, the historic Pozo Shaft House, and extensive remnants of mining activity. Massive boilers, steam pumps, sheave wheels, wagon roads, hand-hewn timbers, and the historic Gilpin Tramway grade remain visible throughout the landscape.

Today, forest, mining features, and industrial artifacts coexist across the property, preserving an unusually intact mining landscape. The assemblage offers opportunities for historic preservation, heritage tourism, thoughtful development, conservation, and renewed mineral exploration, subject to verification of mineral rights, geological potential, and applicable approvals.
