Please note: 487 is the alternate parcel number, NOT the address. This property does not have an address yet, and can be obtained with the county once built upon. Perched above Creede, this spectacular lot is ready for your dream home. Overlooking downtown Creede, the Bulldog Mine, and down river towards South Fork, it feels miles away from it all, but only 2 miles or 10 minutes to the baseball fields in Creede. County maintained road, easy access year round. Enjoy visiting mule deer, elk, birds, moose, and more wildlife than you can ever imagine. Building site has been planned and excavated, and ready for your personal touches. You will need to install well and septic. Perc test completed a few years ago, and OWTS plan in place from a few years ago. Survey on file. Power is nearby. NOT an off-grid lot; there's already power adjacent to the building site, and the excavation is done, making this an improved lot, saving the buyer significant time and expense. Start building this spring and enjoy your new home by the fall! Not only are the views unsurpassed and breathtaking, but the proximity to town makes that a 'million dollar' combination. Where else can you build in the forest but yet be so close to it all in Creede? Ride your horses into thousands of miles of trails or into downtown Creede for dinner, or into the forest for hunting, fishing, and camping. Mineral County is like no other in all of Colorado; 95% National Forest means world class fishing, hiking, biking, camping, rock climbing, rockhounding, birding, photography, boating, ATVing, hunting and fishing. Fly into the jet runway in Creede C24, or fly&drive via commercial airports of Alamosa ALS, Montrose MTJ, Durango DGO, or Albuquerque ABQ, & a gorgeous basecamp for Southern Colorado. From Creede Visitor Center, go south on Hwy 149, go right on USFS/CR 504/Bachelor Loop. Follow it up towards Middle Rat Creek/504.1B. Property is on the right hand side, before Middle Rat Creek/504.1B turnoff.
