Description
Welcome to "Three Claim", one of the last available large acreage properties directly on one of the most scenic byways in Colorado, CO-82. Nestled between Twin Lakes, the largest glacier-carved lakes in CO, and Independence Pass, the second highest paved highway in CO, this 22 acre property is like nothing else. It even features a private 'cave'! Bordered by National Forest, and the Black Cloud Trailhead, you can hike to Mount Elbert right from your property, or head down the valley just 4 miles to Twin Lakes. This property offers the ultimate development opportunity with a myriad of conditional use options, and 617' of highway frontage to showcase your masterpiece. Own an incredible south facing mountain property and build the ultimate retreat into the mountain side with no size restriction and no HOA. Not in an avalanche area. Not in the scenic overlay zone. Mine for gold at one of the three historic patented mining claims, and relish in the fact that you own them all the way down to the center of the earth. Electric, phone, and driveway already on-site for added convenience. Large, flat building site backed by rock outcroppings, forest, overlooks, and the most amazing views of Twin Peaks, Star Mountain, and Parry Peak just to name a few. Centrally located in the Colorado high country, you're just a short drive from popular destinations including Aspen, Twin Lakes, Leadville, Arkansas River, Mount Elbert, La Plata Peak, and so much more. The San Isabel National Forest contains 19 of the state's 58 fourteeners, making it a world-class location for outdoor recreation. You must see this property for yourself to fully appreciate the beauty and rarity that it offers.
