Looking for a mountain property with trees, privacy, and wide-open views? This 5-acre parcel in Sangre De Cristo Ranches, Colorado, sits at about 8,868 feet elevation and offers views across the valley and surrounding mountains. The land has rolling hills, moderate slopes, and mature trees that give it a secluded feel, making it worth considering for a future mountain cabin or private getaway.

You can own this property with ($)500 down and ($)324 per month for 72 months through owner financing with Open Skies Land. There's no prepayment penalty, and alternative financing terms may be available if you prefer a different payment arrangement.

The property has year-round road access, so you can visit throughout the seasons. There's also no mandatory HOA and no deadline to build, allowing you to hold the land while you work out your plans. When you're ready to build, Costilla County requires single-family homes to be at least 600 square feet. Manufactured homes built in 1976 or later may also be permitted with the required county approvals. Recreational camping in an RV or camping shelter is allowed for up to 14 days within any consecutive three-month period without a long-term permit.

Fort Garland is about 25 minutes away for fuel, food, and everyday supplies. You can also visit the Fort Garland Museum and Cultural Center to learn more about local history.

For outdoor recreation, Zapata Falls is roughly 44 minutes away, while Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve is about 58 minutes away. Mountain Home Reservoir, around 32 minutes away, offers another option for fishing and spending time outdoors.
