About This Lot
If you’re looking for something a little more rugged and private, this 6.5-acre property in Sangre De Cristo Ranches sits high at about 10,197 feet elevation with wide views across the valley and surrounding mountains. It’s quiet, remote, and feels like a true mountain escape.
Owning this land is within reach with a low down payment of just $500. After that, your monthly payments are $249 for 72 months, making it a practical way to secure your own piece of Colorado.
The terrain has a noticeable slope, along with heavier shrubs and some trees, giving it a more natural, untouched feel. It’s a great fit for camping, exploring, or planning a future mountain cabin that takes advantage of the views. Access is seasonal from both the top and bottom, which adds privacy and keeps the area less traveled.
You’ll still be within reach of San Luis, about 35 minutes away for basic supplies and local history. The surrounding area offers plenty of outdoor opportunities, from hiking and exploring to fishing in nearby lakes and rivers.
If you want a place that feels tucked away, with big views and plenty of space to make your own, this property is worth a look. Reach out anytime for more details.
