If peace and serenity is what you seek, this is the place. Build your dream home among the mountain bluebirds, Indian paintbrush and juniper. Listen to the sounds of the rural landscape - the meadowlark, the neigh of a horse, the crow of a distant rooster. A private parcel with minimal exposure to other homes and unimpeded views to the mountains and ranchland below. Ride as far as the eye can see across thousands of miles of privately accessed BLM. A quick drive to town and the Eagle Vail Airport, yet a world away. Hike the ridgetop on the adjacent open space for views of the Flat Tops and Castle Peak and stargaze beneath the wide-open sky.
