AWESOME 2.53 OFF-GRID RANCH PROPERTY. CLOSE TO TOWN, RIVER, AND RESERVOIRS. INCREDIBLE VIEWS IN ALL DIRECTIONS. Get away from it all on this 2.53-acre off-grid property in the Wild Horse Mesa Subdivision, located on Somerset Road and only 11.9 miles south of the oldest town in Colorado, San Luis. Alamosa, Colorado, and Taos, New Mexico are both about an hour from the property. This lot is zoned residential. This beautiful property also allows for short-term camping for 14 days every 3 months without a camping permit. A longer-term renewable camping permit may be purchased once a permanent water source (well or cistern) and a septic system are installed. This property has incredible access, resting less than 1 mile east of 2-lane paved Hwy 159. This is a very nice property nestled in the San Luis Valley of Colorado. The land is just west of the Wild Horse Mesa (part of the Rocky Mountain Range). Herds of wild mustangs roam the subdivision, hence the name "Wild Horse Mesa." This great land is a short drive to four reservoirs for canoeing, kayaking, boating and fishing. Sanchez Stabilizing Reservoir is 5.7 miles north of the property on the way to San Luis. The Rio Grande River offers great opportunities for kayaking, canoeing, and championship trout fishing, and is about 12 miles west of the lot. Cross over the Rio Grande River at Lobatos Bridge and you enter into thousands of acres of public land for hunting, hiking, and riding ATVs. Great Sand Dunes National Park and Zapata Falls are both about hour's drive north of the land. This awesome property is zoned residential allowing for one residence that is a minimum 600 square feet in size, and one accessory structure. A permanent water source (water well or water cistern) and a septic system are needed before building. Most home types are allowed. Power here would need to be by solar, wind, a gas/propane generator, or a combination of any of these power sources. Heating in the winter would be with a wood burning stove or a propane heating system. The legal description of the property is WILD HORSE MESA SECTION B BLOCK 11 LOT 25. The parcel ID number is 71203040. Taxes on the land are $54.72 per year. Taxes are paid current and not coming due again until early 2026. There are no liens of the property. We will convey this land to the new landowner through a Warranty Deed. Please contact us with any questions. Thanks for looking!
