This 40x13 shed, built in 2022, sits on 5 acres at the base of Mount Blanca, offering unbeatable daily views of one of Colorado’s fourteeners. Located in a designated Dark Sky Sanctuary, the property delivers peaceful days and incredible, star-filled nights.
A driveway, septic system, and cistern are already installed on the lot. They will need to be connected to the shed, giving you the flexibility to finish things the way you want. The inside of the shed is unfinished, making it a blank slate—perfect for turning into an off-grid cabin, a place to stay while you build, or a simple weekend retreat.
This is an off-grid property, with solar or generator power recommended. Costilla County building regulations apply, with no HOA restrictions.
Convenient access to nearby destinations:
Blanca – 10 minutes
Smith Reservoir – 18 minutes
Zapata Falls – 25 minutes
Great Sand Dunes National Park – 21 minutes
Alamosa – 22 minutes
Mountain Home Reservoir – 24 minutes
If you’re looking for wide-open views, flexibility, and a property you can shape into your own vision, this 5-acre parcel offers plenty of potential in a stunning location.
