What You'll Love About This Land
Are you looking for an affordable piece of Colorado land where you can finally build, camp, or just escape from the noise of everyday life?
So many buyers get stuck with properties that feel out of reach, either because of high prices, too many rules, or the stress of endless restrictions.
-Hold it now for just $50 on our website. Stake-Your-Claim Saturday coupon available on our website.
This 5.21-Acre lot in Costilla County solves that problem - it's a wide-open space that gives you freedom without the hassle.
With Estate Residential (Er) zoning, you can build one single-family home or place a manufactured home (as long as it's 1976 or newer) according to our research.
If you're not ready to build right away, you can still enjoy the land.
Bring your RV for camping up to 14 days every 3 months, and if you want to stay longer, a permit makes it possible (please confirm with the county).
There's no HOA here, so you won't have to worry about added fees or strict neighborhood rules.
Utilities are straightforward: most owners in the area use solar or another off-grid system for power.
The land itself has gentle 2-6% slopes, a mix of open grassland and hardy pinyon and juniper shrubs, and it's not in a special hazard flood zone according to our research.
Imagine spending weekends here surrounded by Colorado's crisp air, open skies, and peaceful silence.
Whether you want to build a future home, create a getaway spot, or hold it as an investment, this property makes it possible.
It's big enough to spread out, private enough to give you breathing room, and simple enough to own without stress.
So if you've been waiting for the right place to build or invest, now's the time.
