The former ranch home and barn on the southern parcel are protected historic structures and enduring reminders of the rugged men and women who once called this remote corner of Colorado home.

Yet the world-renowned slopes, restaurants, festivals, shopping and golf of Telluride are only about 30 minutes away. Fly-fishing on the San Miguel River is just minutes away, while miles of public lands and exceptional opportunities for hiking, camping, hunting, horseback riding, four-wheeling and exploring are close at hand.

It's located 1/2 mile north of 62X road, the east west road that is northwest of Dallas Divide on Highway 62. This makes access convenient from either Telluride or Ridgway, and the trip in to town in Ridgway just takes 20 minutes. It has a views that are incredible, and access is easy, using an established easement that runs along its west side.

However, year round access is possible for those that are willing to snowshoe, ski, snowmobile or use either a Snowcat or ATV with tracks to go back and forth from either the San Miguel County side or from Highway 62 on the Ouray County side. There are three other 40 acre vacant land parcels for sale-Lots 12, 13 and 14 This gives you the opportunity to have 200 acres and a home if you'd like something larger.
