Mountain View Acreage

High-Country Basecamp: Build Your Colorado Dream at 8,354 Feet Trees, mountain views, maintained road access, mobile homes allowed: This Colorado property gives you the space and elevation to build something that's fully yours. Set on county-maintained Slegers Road in the prestigious Sangre de Cristo Ranches, it offers commanding views of Mount Blanca (Colorado's 4th highest peak) with both open buildable areas and natural tree cover for privacy. The 5.24-acre parcel sits at 8,354 feet elevation, giving you that high-country feel with panoramic vistas of the Sangre de Cristo range and wide valley views. You've got neighbors in the subdivision, but plenty of space between properties. Whether you're thinking of a cabin, manufactured home, RV setup, or off-grid hunting basecamp, this land gives you the freedom to build your Colorado legacy without excessive restrictions. Spend your time exploring Costilla County's legendary outdoor opportunities - from OTC elk hunting in GMU 83 to fishing at Smith Reservoir, plus easy access to Great Sand Dunes National Park (45 minutes) and endless hiking in the nearby 14ers. Whether you're building long-term or need an escape from city life, this land is ready when you are.
