This 10.34-acre parcel sits in the high country outside Fort Garland, offering a clear piece of Southern Colorado terrain. At 8,600 feet in elevation, the land breaks into a mix of flat building sites and rolling hills. Moderate tree cover stands across the acreage, breaking the wind and adding natural privacy. The site provides wide views of the surrounding mountain ranges and the famously dark night skies this region is known for.
Unlike raw, untouched land, the foundational work is already complete here. A county-maintained dirt road brings you directly to the property line. You do not need four-wheel drive to access it year-round. An existing driveway cut is already established, saving significant heavy equipment costs, and Costilla County has formally assigned a property address. An existing covered shelter already stands on the land, giving a buyer a ready-made basecamp from day one.
The parcel falls under Rural Residential zoning with no Homeowner's Association to dictate your plans. A modest 600-square-foot minimum build size applies if you choose to construct a cabin or home. The land is completely off-grid. Future owners will need to install solar, a well or cistern, and a septic system. Starlink and Jade Communications both service the area for reliable internet connectivity.
Fort Garland is a 10-mile drive for fuel and basic supplies. Alamosa sits 25 miles out for major grocery runs and hardware. Mountain Home Reservoir is 14 miles away, and the entrance to Great Sand Dunes National Park is a 27-mile trip.
This is a highly usable acreage with the access infrastructure already in place. Contact the listing broker to request the parcel map, exact GPS coordinates, and access details.
