Improved Recreational Land for Sale in Buena Vista, Colorado
29355 County Road 305, Buena Vista, CO 81211
67± acres positioned for two exits in one purchase, priced to reflect condition. The property may qualify for an administrative lot split under Chaffee County Land Use Code Sec. 5.2.6.6 (buyer to verify with County Planning) — conceptually, a 20-acre compound built around the existing well, solar, and structures, paired with a 47-acre standalone view parcel, supported by internal road cuts already on the ground. The infrastructure is the head start: a permitted well (5 GPM, 120'), two solar arrays (one with confirmed battery storage and inverter), and four structures already in place — a 2,136 sf residence, a 1,500 sf two-story studio/ADU shell, a 1,344 sf workshop/barn, and a garage. All conveyed as-is; the main house needs work (mold remediation, a new kitchen), the ADU needs a plumbing hookup, and the workshop needs a cleanout — real costs, but modest measured against what raw land plus permitted infrastructure would cost to build from scratch. Borders National Forest and public land, with a stream and panoramic mountain views on gravel, county-maintained County Road 305 frontage. Land-only sales in this corridor have recently closed at $19,000–$21,000 per acre with no special amenities — this parcel's forest-edge position, off-grid infrastructure, and defined split concept are differentiators most competing land offerings don't have. Cash or hard-money purchase; low carrying cost (~$4,400–$5,000/yr in property tax) while you pursue entitlement work. Two parcels, one purchase, and a real head start on both.
