Description

Treed Mountain Land Less Than 10 Miles from Town 

Five acres of tree-covered Colorado land where the air is crisp and the views stretch for miles. This property sits in the heart of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, less than 10 miles from Fort Garland. Rolling terrain gives you privacy and panoramic mountain vistas. The 14,000-foot peaks of Mt. Blanca stand to the north while you're surrounded by piñon pines and open sky. Good road access means you can get here easily, but once you arrive, you're a world away. 

Elk roam these mountains by the thousands. Mountain Home Reservoir is minutes away for trout fishing and boating. The Great Sand Dunes National Park is a short drive, or you can cool off at Zapata Falls. At night, the Dark Sky Heritage designation means you'll see more stars than you thought possible. With 280 sunny days a year and wildlife in your backyard, there's always something happening. 

This property is priced to sell! Over $\$10,000$ less than one of the nearby lots with similar features! Build an off-grid cabin. Set up camp for long weekends. Make it your private getaway where your only neighbors are trees and the occasional elk herd. No HOA. No restrictions worth mentioning. Just you, the land, and mountain views that go on forever.
