Land with Home for Sale in San Luis, Colorado
6132 Running Horse Trl, San Luis, CO 81152
WHERE THE EARTH MEETS THE SKY: A Wild Horse Mesa Sanctuary. Perched atop the majestic Wild Horse Mesa, this 1,100-square-foot log cabin offers a rare synthesis of rugged wilderness and modern refinement. While many retreat "off-grid," this residence enjoys the premium luxury of dedicated electrical service, sparing you the maintenance of solar arrays while keeping you immersed in the quietude of the San Luis Valley.
A Panorama Without Peer:
From your balcony, the world unfolds in a silent symphony of granite and light. Witness the sun dip behind the jagged San Juan Mountains or gaze upon the monumental peaks of Mount Blanca and Ute Mountain. Whether you are tracing ancient stories in nearby petroglyphs or watching a resident elk herd graze in your own backyard, the connection to nature here is profound and personal.
Refined Rustic Living:
The interior radiates warmth, featuring rich wood finishes and unique live-edge trim. The heart of the home is a cozy hearth, recently serviced with new piping to ensure golden winter evenings.
The Loft: A dream-like upper half-story with a bedroom and a bespoke walkway leading to a private balcony—the ultimate perch for sunrise coffee.
Recent Enhancements: The kitchen and bath have been thoughtfully updated with a new stove, refrigerator, microwave, and a stylish bathroom vanity with rustic shelving.
Modern Infrastructure: Peace of mind comes standard with a new Rinnai heater, a fresh water pump, and high-speed cellular data—thanks to a direct line of sight to the local tower.
The Complete Estate
This offering encompasses three parcels totaling over 3.5 acres and includes nearly all furnishings. Whether you seek a Colorado basecamp or a silent sanctuary to watch the clouds drift over the world’s largest Alpine Valley, this cabin is not just a dwelling—it is a legacy.
Your mountain story begins here.
