This 15.15-acre property delivers what Colorado land buyers are searching for: level terrain, stunning mountain views, and convenient access to town. The level, bare terrain means you can start using your land immediately for camping without any clearing required - just arrive and enjoy your mountain property.
Located in the heart of the San Luis Valley, this property offers the rare combination of rural privacy and practical access to services. Blanca is just 13 minutes away for basics, while Alamosa - the valley's regional hub with full shopping, dining, medical facilities, and entertainment - is only 27 minutes down well-maintained roads. The property has excellent dirt road access along its southern boundary, making year-round visits straightforward in normal weather conditions.
The Estate Residential zoning provides flexibility for various uses while maintaining residential character. Build a traditional home, modular dwelling, or take advantage of Costilla County's welcoming stance on alternative building methods including earthships. County permits are required for construction and development. Camping is permitted on your property with county permits as required.
This is off-grid land with excellent potential for self-sufficient living. Electricity is available approximately 1.5 miles to the north if you choose to extend service, or you can take advantage of the San Luis Valley's 300 days of annual sunshine with solar power - a popular choice in this area. You'll need to establish your own water source through well drilling (the property sits above substantial groundwater resources with domestic well rights typically available) or cistern installation. The level terrain simplifies installation of solar arrays, water systems, and septic facilities when you're ready to develop.
At approximately $1,254 per acre for over 15 acres with excellent access and flexibility, this property offers an affordable entry point into Colorado land ownership in a region experiencing growing interest from those seeking rural property with mountain views and outdoor recreation access.
