About This Property

Where wide-open meadows meet towering timber and National Forest, this extraordinary 40-acre property offers the very best of Southwest Colorado. Nestled in a picturesque valley surrounded by majestic pine forests, the land is further enhanced by seasonal Bear Creek as it runs through the property, creating a lush riparian corridor filled with mature willow trees and abundant wildlife. With endless possibilities, this remarkable property is the perfect place to build your dream mountain retreat. Whether you envision a private residence, horse property, family getaway, or recreational basecamp, you'll appreciate the outstanding homesite, breathtaking mountain and valley views, and exceptional privacy.

Adding to its appeal, valuable infrastructure is already in place, including a 400-foot encased artesian well, a new septic system, a 500-gallon propane tank, several storage sheds, and a roughed-in driveway. Step beyond your property line and enjoy direct access to 18,000 acres of National Forest trails for hiking, horseback riding, hunting, snowmobiling, ATV adventures, and year-round recreation. Situated at approximately 7,500 feet in elevation, it is located 10 minutes from Bayfield and 30 minutes to Durango for all of your amenities. This property offers a rare combination of acreage, National Forest frontage, existing utilities, a seasonal creek, and breathtaking natural beauty.

Property taxes for 2026 are $650.48. The property also includes a 2,200-square-foot manufactured home on a temporary foundation. The manufactured home is not included in the real estate sale and may be negotiated separately outside of the real estate purchase contract. This is an exceptional opportunity to own a legacy property in one of Southwest Colorado's most desirable mountain settings.
