Costilla County, Colorado
Lot Description
Head here when you want mountain backdrop, fewer people and more peace on this 4.83-Acre property on 24th Street in Blanca, Colorado (81123)
Off-Grid living comes naturally here. Solar or a generator are best option, with water by well or delivery. Set up camp, bring a couple of chairs, and let the quiet do its thing. It works just as well for weekend getaways as it does for mapping out a future desert cabin, with big space to use and nothing around pushing you to hurry.

Detailed Info About this Parcel:
What's the land actually like?
It's mostly level, natural desert ground with some light rolling to it, not flat but not challenging either. The soil feels firm with a mix of sand and small rocks, so walking it feels solid. There's nothing steep or awkward to deal with, just level to gently sloping terrain.
What grows out here?
You'll see the usual high-desert plants like sagebrush, yucca, low shrubs, and native grasses. There are some of natural clearings where you could park, camp, or pick a build spot and clear it out if you want to build your vacation spot.
How do you get to the property?
Sits along clean, fairly easy dirt roads laid out in a grid, so there's no guessing or cutting through random paths. It's easy to find and easy to pull up to.
Are there utilities nearby?
This is an off-grid-friendly setup, so no monthly utility bills to worry about. Most nearby owners rely on solar or a generator. Water would come from a well or delivery service, depending on your plans. The nearest power lines are roughly 17,000 feet away along County Road 12.
What's around the property?
The surrounding area looks just like the parcel itself, natural desert land stretching out toward the mountains in the distance. There's nothing commercial or industrial nearby, which keeps things quiet and consistent.
Are there neighbors close?
No homes or neighbors in sight, though you may pass by 1-3 houses about 3 miles from the parcel. On the lot itself, there are no immediate neighbors. Very private and quiet.
Are mobile or manufactured homes allowed?
Yes. Mobile and manufactured homes are allowed as long as they were built in 1976 or newer and meet required safety standards. A hook-up permit is required, and the home must be used as a single-family residence only, not for storage or temporary use.
Can you camp or use an Rv?
Yes, camping and RV use are allowed for short stays. Any stay longer than 14 days within a 3-month period requires a Long-Term Camping Permit and proper hook-ups. RVs are for temporary use only and can't be used as a permanent residence.
