Calling all hunters, fishers, and nature lovers: this is the lot you have been WAITING for! This 11-acre property sits at 7750' in elevation and comes improved with a 1700-gallon cistern installed underground, a 1250-gallon Septic Tank (suitable for up to 4-bedroom residence), 90 tons of gravel leveled into a spacious, circular driveway, and a cleared building site for your 2000 sqft home/RV parking/accessory building(s). This lot is being sold as two parcels; Costilla County permits one single-family residence per parcel. This property borders Smith Reservoir & State Wildlife Area; a 14,000+ sq acre-ft reservoir that permits fishing, boating (motorized & non-motorized permitted), and camping. The Smith Reservoir State Wildlife Area is a highlight for bird watchers as you will likely spot terns, gulls, hawks, herons, ducks, and geese! The San Luis Valley is on the route for Sandhill Cranes and other migratory birds- each March you can view these amazing creatures and experience the Crane Festival! Smith Reservoir is also known for its stellar ice fishing when the water freezes, although licensed anglers will have great chances of catching several species of stocked trout year-round. The reservoir is a 2-minute drive or 10-minute walk from the property. The unobstructed, majestic, million-dollar views of Mt Blanca are truly remarkable and are most appreciated in person! Mt Blanca is the tallest peak in the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, a sub-range of the Rockies; a 14-er as avid hikers may call it. This property is easily accessible off Hwy 160 making it easily accessible year-round and beyond that, accessible by a low-clearance 2WD vehicle year-round. The dirt roads are regularly maintained by Costilla County. This property is unparalleled in location & improvements, and it won't last long. Call today to set-up your guided showing!
