Over 90 acres of vacant land near Salida, CO. This is a quintessential mountain ranch parcel. Surrounded by the picturesque views of the mountain ranges that line the Arkansas River Valley, this is a beautiful spot to build a home, possibly split the acreage into separate parcels, or just use for livestock grazing. There is a ditch that runs through the property with water rights that are currently used to flood irrigate a pasture. There is also power pulled in, a domestic well in place, and septic installed at a home site. A little history of this location is evident in the existing barn.
