5602 Alta Mesa Dr San Luis, CO 81152

Listing details for 5602 Alta Mesa Dr, San Luis, CO 81152 : This parcel has POWER and WATER to the lot line and a lot of “heavy lifting” has been completed – a DRIVEWAY, multi-stage SEPTIC and LEACH LINES, a CISTERN, as well as a HOUSE PAD scrape have all been completed in preparation of building or even camping! The property is rather heavily treed but it is possible to construct a home without taking down any additional trees so a home tucked in and behind trees is easily doable! This Wild Horse Mesa property is situated between the larger towns of Alamosa, CO and Taos, New Mexico. The closest small town is San Luis, the oldest town in Colorado! It is located 1/2 mile from the Sanchez Reservoir and overlooks the reservoir and approximately 250,000 acres of open land! The amazing mountain range just across the valley are known as the Sangre de Cristos (a subrange of the Rockies). In addition to gorgeous sunrises rising up over the top of these giants, these mountains have the unique ability to turn pink in many of the sunsets (Sangre de Cristo means “Blood of Christ” owing their name to the phenomenon of the pinkness).
