Salida, CO 81201

Tucked just outside Salida, this rare legacy property includes two separate 35-acre parcels for a combined 70.14 acres of opportunity, history, and room to create something lasting. One parcel is fully improved with multiple dwellings, outbuildings, adjudicated spring water, and a long history as a gathering place. The second parcel is vacant land featuring two excellent building sites, ideal for expansion, future development, or simply preserving wide-open space. The main house blends rustic charm with standout mid-century details. A moss rock fireplace anchors the living room, paired with a built-in indoor grill. Vaulted wood ceilings with exposed beams add warmth and dimension, while the primary suite features a sunken hot tub surrounded by flagstone and a vintage flair. There is also a 3,059 square foot lodge-style home on the property, currently under renovation. Its size, layout, and setting suggest possibilities, but the direction is up to the next owner. It’s a space you’ll want to walk through to appreciate. A separate 425 square foot studio cabin with full bath is also located on the developed parcel. Currently tenant occupied, it offers built-in income or flexible guest space. The property is served by a well and septic system. The well permit allows for indoor use in up to three single-family dwellings, irrigation of up to one acre of gardens or lawn, fire protection, and watering of poultry, domestic animals, and livestock on a farm or ranch. Two adjudicated springs provide additional water resources. This property is more than land and structures. It’s a canvas layered with history and full of potential. Whether you imagine a personal mountain sanctuary, a family retreat, or a place that brings people together again, this property offers the foundation to build something meaningful. With unmatched character, acreage, water, and location, this is a rare chance to own a piece of Colorado that invites both imagination and legacy.
