Live where your heart is happy! This 3.5-acre lot in the gated Forbes Park community is a blank slate ready for your dream home or getaway cabin. With no nearby neighbors and Forbes Park Lake just a half mile away, this is the alpine paradise you have been searching for. The trees on this property did not burn in the 2018 fire so you will have plenty of privacy. This property is the best of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains with San Isabel National Forest land nearby and lots of mature pine and aspen trees. The landowners association maintains the roads even in winter so you can enjoy this property all year.
This land is currently off-grid. There is electric and fiber-optic cable in the area, so it's possible to bring it to the lot if you desire. There are multiple wells in the area with good quality water, averaging only 200 ft deep. Once septic is installed, you'll have an off-grid getaway waiting for you when you want to escape into the mountains.
Forbes Park is the perfect Colorado getaway. This large subdivision is still lightly developed, and residents have access to 5,000+ acres of Common Land to enjoy. You can spend your days exploring the hiking trails, fly fishing in the creeks, or paddling your kayak on the lake. Coloradoans do not let a little snow stop their fun, especially with 300+ days of sunshine each year. Bring your snowshoes and cross-country skis and explore the subdivision or surrounding National Forest land. After hunting season, chances are you will not cross paths with another person on your adventures.
Fort Garland (population 600) is just 18 miles away. You can get your basic supplies and services here at the local grocery store and hardware store. It also has a hair salon, two gas stations, an antique store, and several small local restaurants. This quirky small town is home to many artists and musicians and hosts a regular Wild West show. With several festivals here throughout the year, you will never be bored.
