Details
This stunning hilltop parcel near Sanchez Reservoir is in the Little Norway subdivision approximately 14 miles from San Luis, Colorado. All lots in this subdivision have on-site access to water and electricity. Little Norway is located on Wild Horse Mesa, named for the herds of wild horses that roam the area. From the lot’s highest point (8,640’), there are amazing views in every direction and you can see parts of Sanchez Reservoir in the valley below. There’s also plenty of relatively level space for building or just clearing an area for a camping pad. Imagine soaking up 300+ days of sunshine per year from your future deck or patio surrounded by pinon pine, juniper, and sagebrush. This area is home to an abundance of wildlife including deer, elk, eagles, hawks, and, of course, the wild horses. This lot is in Little Norway Phase 3, which has no Property Owners Association (POA) and no POA dues. There are modest and reasonable covenants for property owners to follow. The covenants allow for short-term camping and are actually less restrictive than the current county rules on camping. Options for longer-term temporary habitation during construction are available. Little Norway is located at the Eastern edge of the vast San Luis Valley, which spans from the San Juan mountain range in the west to the Sangres in the east. The boat ramp is a mere 4 miles away. It’s just a short drive to the town of San Luis, where you can stop in at the excellent coffee shop or dine at one of two restaurants. To purchase supplies, you’ll want to head to either Alamosa or Walsenburg. Both are about an hour away. Great Sand Dunes National Park is also about 1 hour away, or you can make it to shopping and skiing in Taos, New Mexico in less than 90 minutes. Recreational opportunities abound in this area! Pueblo is 124 miles, Colorado Springs is 166 miles, and Denver is 237 miles away.
