Improved Recreational Land for Sale in Walsenburg, Colorado
1089 Vega Rd, Walsenburg, CO 81089
Nestled in the scenic Pinon Hills area, this exceptional 11.66-acre property offers privacy, security, and breathtaking views surrounded by native pinon and juniper trees. Located at 6,200–7,000 feet elevation, the area features rolling terrain, native grasses, and a peaceful semi-desert landscape with Western Wheatgrass, Blue Grama, and cactus varieties. Conveniently situated just a half mile south of U.S. Highway 160, the property enjoys easy access while remaining protected from future development by adjoining Conservation Easement and State Trust lands. The home is equipped with a comprehensive televised security system with multiple camera views and direct alarm notification to the Sheriff’s office. Attractive xeriscape landscaping includes crushed rock, cacti, large decorative boulders, and a striking Blue Spruce centerpiece along the circular driveway. A standout feature is the detached steel-frame garage/shop 32x40 with a full concrete floor and integrated plumbing. Radiant floor heat piping is installed in the east half of the shop, offering excellent potential for a future apartment, office, or expanded workspace. Water service is provided by a rural water association, with the additional option to drill a private well—an important advantage in Southern Colorado. Combining open space, functionality, security, and stunning natural surroundings, this is truly a must-see property.
