5 Acres with Unmatched Views of Mount Blanca

4818 Ivy Ave, Alamosa County, CO

Parcel #527720308005 | SAN LUIS VALLEY RANCHES INC LOT 5 BLK 8 UNIT 12

If you’ve been looking for wide-open space, big Colorado skies, and unbeatable mountain scenery, this 5-acre parcel in San Luis Valley Ranches is well worth a look.

The highlight of this property is its direct, close-up view of Mount Blanca. Standing on the land, you get a front-row seat to one of Colorado’s most impressive 14ers, along with sweeping panoramas of the entire Sangre de Cristo range.

The ground itself is mostly level high-desert terrain with native brush and clear sightlines, making it very straightforward to work with. Access is right off a dirt road, giving you a smooth route into the lot. Whether you're picturing an off-grid cabin build, a weekend RV getaway, a solar setup, or simply holding onto a piece of high-desert land for the future, you have plenty of room and freedom to make it happen.

There is a small abandoned camper trailer and a couple of scrap wood piles currently on site that will need to be hauled off by the buyer after closing. Once cleared, you'll have a completely open canvas to build or setup however you like.
