Residential Land for Sale in Fort Garland, Colorado
Tiernan Rd, Fort Garland, CO 81133
Seller motivated: 5 acres near Fort Garland with no HOA, county-maintained dirt-road access, and a strong off-grid setup in Southern Colorado. This parcel gives buyers room to breathe, mountain and valley views, gorgeous night skies, wildlife, and an affordable place to plan a future basecamp, weekend retreat, or long-term land hold.
The property sits around 8,320 feet with rolling terrain and pinons, giving it more character than a flat open lot while still offering usable ground to walk, camp, stage equipment, and plan future improvements. Access is by dirt road with county maintenance reported, year-round access, and no need for 4x4 to access. No driveway is installed and no official address is assigned, so buyers should use GPS coordinates and parcel mapping when evaluating the property.
Zoned Rural Residential in Costilla County, with no HOA and a reported 600 sq ft minimum build size per county guidance. No power, water, septic, or sewer is currently on-site, giving buyers a blank-slate off-grid layout to design around their own plans. Buyer should verify well/cistern, solar, septic, internet, zoning, access, and intended use. Property was acquired by Treasurer’s Deed in 2021; buyer should confirm title insurability, quiet-title options, timing, and closing requirements with a title company or attorney.
Approximate driving distances from the property: 8 miles to Fort Garland, 8 miles to Mountain Home Reservoir, 12 miles to Blanca, 23 miles to San Luis, 37 miles to Great Sand Dunes National Park, 39 miles to Alamosa, and 51 miles to Sand Dunes Recreation.
