Residential Land for Sale in San Luis, Colorado
Alta Mesa Dr, San Luis, CO 81152
Escape to the serene heights of Wild Horse Mesa, where seclusion meets breathtaking panoramas. Situated on a quiet, rarely traveled road, this is an off-the-grid gem. The majestic Sangre de Cristo Mountains feel close enough to touch, with five of Colorado’s iconic 14,000-foot peaks visible directly from the property.
This is the ultimate canvas for your off-grid retreat. To build your dream escape, a solar system, septic, and cistern will be required. While wells are cost-prohibitive at this elevation, convenient water hauling is available through the Mesa Community Center. For those looking to create a family compound or move near a friend, an additional property is available directly to the south across the road. Come experience the quiet majesty of the High Desert!
