Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Fort Garland, Colorado

Eleven acres of high mountain ground in Sangre de Cristo Ranches near Fort Garland, Colorado: two adjoining lots at about 9,000 feet, with a driveway already cut in and a building area cleared. The access and the pad are in place, so the work of starting a cabin, an off-grid retreat or a mountain basecamp is already underway.

8. Off-grid: no power at the lot (solar is the common setup); water by private well or cistern; septic by county OWTS permit; propane in place of natural gas
9. FEMA Flood Zone X: outside the mapped high-risk flood areas, so flood insurance is not required by lenders
