A Change of Scenery Here
Calle La Sierra Blanka Dr : Walsenburg, CO 81089
Huerfano County, Colorado
Land Description
This one is different. You can see rocks, trees, and a canyon that runs through the property providing varying land views. The snow covered mountain range in the background is a nice touch.
This 1.90 acre property sits just outside of Walsenberg, the seat of Huerfano County. Here you have National Forests, The Spanish Peaks, The Great Sand Dunes National Park, Lathrop State Park and the wild west surrounding the parcel. Many of Colorado's hidden gems are in close proximity to this piece of unspoiled land. 37 acres of public land border the property which means no neighbors and plenty of protected nature to appreciate.
The property is very buildable. There are flat areas with great dirt for parking an RV or building a cabin. Imagine a campfire in the evenings under the Colorado stars. No light pollution, city noise, or traffic will interrupt your peace and quiet.
The advantage of this location is you feel secluded but town is 16 miles away. Walsenberg has grocery stores, hotels, medical facilities, hardware stores, and a lot of entertainment. Pueblo is about an hour, Colorado Springs 2 hrs, and Denver 3 hrs. You can get to the big cities and retreat back to your mountain oasis before sundown. Rather than driving the interstate, people out here prefer the backroads. The Highway of Legends is a National Scenic Byway that connects Walsneberg with LaVeta, historic mining towns, and Trinidad. There is adventure and beauty to be had just in the drive from one place to another. People from all over the country will arrive to drive these byways in the fall when the leaves turn.
The Colorado lifestyle is easy to adapt here. There is hiking, camping, climbing, fishing at Lathrop State Park, hunting, wildlife watching, water recreation, golfing, biking, off-roading, and snow sports. The outdoorsy type love Colorado for all the adventure and beauty nature provides.
