Over 9 acres of waterfront property for a low cash offer of $32,000!

Description

The Rio Grande River spans 1,900 miles through Colorado to the Gulf of Mexico and runs right along the edge of this property. Most of the river cuts through the volcanic rock with steep cliff sides but not here. There is access to the water’s edge on foot for you to enjoy the cool mountain runoff. The Lobatos bridge is just 3 minutes down the river for crossing. The location on the river couldn’t be more perfect!

The views are spectacular! Your new retreat will have the flowing river encompassed by miles of open valley land surrounded then by the Colorado mountain ranges. This parcel is larger than most in the San Luis Valley, at 9.42 acres. You will have plenty of space to build a mountain cabin or pull out the RV. The land is level and ready for you to enjoy. Too many newcomers are cutting down trees and changing the landscape in order to build, you won’t have to worry about disrupting the land in order to have a home here. This land has looked the same for hundreds of years and you can live amongst that history!

Rio Grande National Forest surrounds the San Luis Valley to the northwest and Carson National Forest surrounds the valley on the New Mexico side. There are millions! Yes millions! Of acres of protected forest land for recreation. These National Parks are uncrowded and provide year round recreation. The summers offer cool temps for climbing, hiking, mountain biking (over50 trails in Carson alone!) and the winters offer snow skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling. There are several large ski resorts for everyone, beginners to advanced skiers. The fishing! Some of the best trout fishing in the country can be found in the Rio Grande. Rainbow, brown, and the native Cutthroat trout can be caught moving down the cold water streams, in lakes, and the many ponds. There is also water recreation such as boating, white water rafting, and kayaking. There is horseback riding the trails, camping, and many scenic drives to take advantage of. The mountain scenery is breathtaking. Staring off into the horizon is a hobby all on its own. 

I mentioned location earlier….this land is remote, off-grid, secluded, however, it sits just 23 min from Antonito and 36 min from LaJara which are tiny communities in the valley but provide all your immediate needs such as gas, groceries, and convenience store purchases. For small city amenities you can go 51 minutes north to Alamosa or 1hr 20 south to Taos, NM. Both will have big box stores, chain restaurants, hotels, medical facilities, and entertainment. If you need to go to the major cities, you are 2hrs 30 minutes to Santa Fe, NM., 3 hrs 30 min to Albuquerque going south. Colorado Springs is 3 hrs and Denver is 4 hours north.  You are far enough away that you won’t see, hear, or smell the city but close enough to drive to and from in one day. Like I said, perfect location! 

The river properties are rare throughout the valley. Land with water access, even more so. You can visit our website (below) to secure this property through our “Reserve Now” feature or call for down payment options. This won’t last long.
