This 438.53-acre property sits off Highway 159 just south of San Luis with clear views of Mount Blanca and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Wild horses move through the area regularly. Minimal light pollution delivers genuine wall-to-wall night skies. Three legal parcels give a buyer flexibility to hold the spread, build out, or sell off sections over time.

The heaviest infrastructure work is done. Paved, year-round access off Highway 159. Permitted septic installed. Grid-tied electric connected and functional. Surface water well already in the ground. Two framed, closed-in cabins on concrete foundations with base plumbing and electrical rough-ins — ready to finish on a buyer's timeline. Sold as-is. Note: interior photos showing furnishings were taken prior to the property being vacated and are intended to give a sense of the space and its potential.

Costilla County Rural Residential zoning, no HOA. GMU 83 puts elk, mule deer, and antelope in the unit, with BLM and state land accessible nearby. This is a permanent private basecamp in a unit that is 97 percent privately held.

Taos Ski Valley is 85 miles south. Red River is 75 miles out. Cuchara Mountain Park is 55 miles east. Great Sand Dunes National Park is 20 miles north. Alamosa is 22 miles for groceries and hardware.

At $901 per acre with paved access, power, septic, a well, and two cabins on foundations, this comes in well below what raw land in Costilla County trades for — and raw land doesn't include any of this. Contact the listing broker for parcel maps, GPS coordinates, and access details.
