Land Description
4.92 Acres of Untouched Colorado Land - Mountain Views, Road Access & Development Potential
Unlock your opportunity to own nearly 5 acres of prime Colorado land in the heart of the San Luis Valley. This 4.92-Acre parcel, nestled in the scenic and sought-after San Luis Valley Ranches subdivision, offers an unbeatable combination of space, natural beauty, and investment value. Whether you're seeking a peaceful homestead, an off-grid getaway, or a long-term investment, this lot delivers the ideal foundation for your landownership goals.
Located on 18th Street with direct dirt road access, this property offers a flat and buildable landscape with light vegetation and wide-open mountain views. You'll enjoy panoramic vistas of Blanca Peak and the surrounding Sangre de Cristo Range-some of the most breathtaking mountain scenery in Colorado. The terrain is level, which significantly reduces the cost of site preparation, and the Estate Residential (Er) zoning gives you the flexibility to build your dream home, place a manufactured home, park an RV, or use the land for seasonal camping.

Why This Property Stands Out:
Owning land in Costilla County means investing in one of Colorado's most undervalued real estate markets. The San Luis Valley continues to attract buyers seeking affordable acreage, outdoor recreation, and the freedom to build or camp without excessive regulation. This 4.92-Acre parcel offers all the critical elements that savvy buyers look for:
Legal and physical access
Flat terrain that supports easy construction
No HOA or building timelines
Clean title, low property taxes, and minimal holding costs
In addition to its natural beauty, this land is perfectly situated for outdoor enthusiasts. The area is home to countless recreational opportunities, from hiking and fishing to hunting and wildlife photography. With over 300 days of sunshine per year, it's an ideal setting for solar-powered, off-grid living or weekend retreats far from the noise of city life.
Development Potential & Investment Appeal
Whether you're ready to build now or plan for the future, this land presents excellent investment upside:
Build a full-time residence with solar, well, and septic
Create an off-grid cabin or seasonal basecamp
Park an RV or tiny home with temporary living permits
Hold the land as a long-term appreciating asset
Lease or resell at a higher value as demand in the region increases
Comparable lots in the same subdivision with similar features are listed at $10,000-$14,000. This makes your 4.92-Acre parcel a smart buy with built-in equity from day one.
