Some properties are loud. This one doesnt need to be.
Set on 5.14 usable acres in Costilla County, this parcel in Sangre de Cristo Ranches quietly delivers the kind of fundamentals experienced buyers look forand the kind of natural features that rarely come along with them. Its the land you recognize as a good decision the moment you stand on it.
The terrain is gently sloped and open, easy to walk, easy to plan, and easy to imagine something lasting. A natural stream crosses the property, bringing movement, sound, and a sense of calm that cant be manufactured. Land with water has always held its value better, felt better, and aged betterand this parcel is no exception. The south-facing orientation adds another layer of quiet advantage, especially for those thinking ahead about efficiency, comfort, or solar potential.
Access here is refreshingly simple. The property fronts Trinchera Ranch Rd N, a paved, county-maintained road, with legal and physical access already in place. No complicated easements. No seasonal limitations. No guessing how youll get in or out. Power is nearby, and the road brings you directly home.
What truly sets this parcel apart is how close it keeps you to real life while still giving you space to breathe. Fort Garland is just four minutes away, offering fuel, basic services, and a familiar sense of town without crowding your doorstep. US-160 provides straightforward regional access, and Pueblo is close enough for medical care, shopping, and city conveniences when you need themfar enough when you dont.
Zoned Estate Residential (ER), the property supports residential use while preserving the open character that draws people to this part of southern Colorado in the first place. An HOA/POA exists but is optional, leaving you in control of how involved you want to be. Annual property taxes are just $306.80, making this land easy to hold, easy to plan around, and easy to keep.
The surrounding area offers quiet depth rather than flashhistoric sites like Fort Garland, the natural beauty of Zapata Falls, and wide stretches of open land that remind you why space still matters. This is a place people come to slow down, think long-term, and put down roots on their own terms.
Land like this doesnt announce itself with hype. It simply checks the boxes that matter, then adds a few that most properties cantwater, access, proximity, and balance. Those who understand land will recognize the opportunity here immediately. Those who hesitate often find themselves looking for something similar later, and realizing its no longer available.
If youve been waiting for acreage that feels like a smart move and a good feeling at the same time, this is your moment.
