*****5 Stars for Location, Access, Power Close, Views******
All of the photos were taken in December 2018 of the property itself and the surrounding views. Very easy and quick access to Hwy 159 and good roads. Beautiful mountain views to the north and east. This property sits closer to the Sangre de Cristo Mountains so the east compared to the west side of the highway. The property is level and buildable. There are neighbors to the N with well kept homes which is an excellent sign for current and future value.
This property is close to town (7 minute drive) and close to Hwy 159. Roads are dirt/gravel and in excellent condition as well as county maintained. Blanca Peak on Mt. Lindsey sits to the north and is a standout in this area as one of the main visual attractions. Ojito Peak and Trinchera Peak to the East, part of the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, are also beautiful and when we visited they were snow covered and extra beautiful in my opinion. To the south in the distance is Ute Mountain, sometimes called the "Sleeping Ute Mountains". The Sleeping Ute is said to resemble a Ute Chief lying on his back with arms folded across his chest. The folded arm part is the peak you can see from this property.
The air was crisp and clean. The sun was hiding behind the clouds when we reached this property, but still hitting the mountains. Unfortunately the cloud made the photos of the land itself a little dark. It was windy that day and cold being December at about 37 degrees. There was a little bit of snow on the ground, but the roads were in great condition and easy to drive. Very easy to find and access using the GPS coordinates supplied.
I had excellent reception on my phone (AT&T) and iPad (Verizon) both service and data. This property would make for a great cabin, home, or recreational property held for future development.
