Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Idaho Springs, Colorado
Sawmill Ln, Idaho Springs, CO 80452
Escape to nearly 36 acres of pure alpine seclusion, an ideal setting for anyone who loves crisp mountain air, big views, and the beauty of the Denver foothills. Build your dream home in stands of evergreens that frame views of the snow-capped Continental Divide and surrounding ridges, creating a private and peaceful retreat, all with access from a county-maintained road. A spacious, flat building site sits near the top of the lot, ready for an A-frame, a modern mountain cabin, or a rustic family retreat. And, MR-1 zoning allows a single family home plus outbuildings and more, giving you freedom to create a fulltime residence, a weekend escape, or a legacy property to pass down. Outdoor adventure is right nearby - only minutes to Echo Mountain ski area and quick access to the Arapaho National Forest, Mt. Blue Sky, Echo Lakes, and more. Here, you can live in total seclusion and still be just 25 minutes to North Evergreen and less than 45 minutes to Denver and hike, bike, or snowshoe on your own trails without ever leaving the property. Bring your vision and your sense of adventure and imagine creating your dream on this pristine foothills land.
