Description

This picturesque 9.5-acre lot in the beautiful San Luis North Estates is the double lot you have been waiting for, AND a septic is installed! The property has a driveway and cleared pad for your camper or cabin! You can apply for a household-use-only well permit or bury a cistern for water. Solar power would be the best option. This property is close to Hwy 159, which gives year-round access. Just minutes away to the east, soak in the beauty of the Sangre De Cristo Greenbelt (about 4000 contiguous acres for outdoor recreation!)! The Greenbelt includes beaver ponds, Rito Seco Creek, open meadows, Pinon Pines for nut collecting, and hiking trails! You will never tire of the spectacular views of towering Mt Blanca to the north, the tallest peak of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains! There is no HOA so only county building code will apply. About 15 minutes to the north east, you will find Mountain Home Reservoir State Wildlife Area where you can fish rainbows, brown trout & cutthroats, ice fish in the winters, boat, jet ski, and camp too! The San Luis Valley is the pathway for Sandhill Cranes and other migratory birds. Elk, mule deer, and foxes are regularly spotted in the area. Wolf Creek Ski area is 2 hours to the west, Monarch Mountain is just 1.5 hours to the north, quaint Cuchara skiing is an hour to the east and Taos or Red River skiing is just an hour south!
