The Holland Lode presents a rare opportunity to acquire a premier south-facing parcel in Gilpin County with meaningful infrastructure already in place. Located approximately 45 minutes west of Denver, this elevated mountain property offers expansive Front Range views, exceptional solar exposure, and a true “top-of-the-world” setting. Unlike raw mountain acreage, this property provides a valuable head start for future development. Legal year-round access is secured from a county-maintained road. A power pole is already installed on the property, and a driveway has been cut following the natural contours of the land to a cleared potential building site. The terrain appears to be solid bedrock and includes an excavated location for a septic tank and leach field, significantly reducing early-stage development work. The south-facing orientation provides all-day sun- one of the most sought-after features for mountain living - making the site ideal for a modern mountain home, sustainable retreat, or high-end second residence. The property offers privacy, dramatic scenery, and excellent building potential without the typical challenges associated with undeveloped land. Conveniently positioned near Black Hawk and Central City, the property is close to dining, gaming, and historic charm, as well as ongoing redevelopment including the Mighty Argo Cable Car project. This location combines mountain seclusion with access to Colorado’s evolving high-country amenities. An additional advantage: the Co-Listing Broker is also an experienced general contractor, offering the potential for a streamlined, turn-key build process for buyers seeking guidance from land acquisition through construction. This is a rare opportunity to secure a build-ready mountain parcel with sun, views, access, and infrastructure already in place - an exceptional foundation for a custom mountain residence.
