This 0.60-acre lot in the Alpine subdivision offers an ideal setting for your mountain home or cabin. With no HOA and no covenants, you’ll have the freedom to build what you want, and short-term rentals are allowed. The property is located just outside the South Fork city limits, so it isn’t subject to the town’s short-term rental restrictions. Access is easy year-round via county-maintained gravel roads, and the location is only about five minutes from the center of South Fork. Public access to the Rio Grande River is just a short walk or ATV ride away, and the Rio Grande National Forest is only about half a mile from the property. You can ride directly from your future home to the trails—no trailer required. Electricity and high-speed fiber internet are at the lot line. Buyer will need to drill a well and install a septic system prior to building. South Fork is known as the basecamp for Rocky Mountain adventure. Enjoy skiing and snowboarding at Wolf Creek Ski Area, only 19 miles away, or take day trips to some of Colorado’s most famous national parks: the Great Sand Dunes, Mesa Verde, and Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Whether you love hiking, fishing, jeeping, or simply soaking in the mountain air, this lot puts you close to it all.
