Description

Mountain views, usable acreage, mature trees, & electricity available at the property line make this 5.2-acre Glen Vista parcel an outstanding opportunity for buyers looking to build their Colorado dream. Located on a desirable corner lot at Copper Gulch & West View Road, this property offers a beautiful combination of level meadow, scattered pines, open building areas, & scenic mountain surroundings that create both flexibility & visual appeal. Unlike many mountain parcels that require extensive excavation or difficult access, this property features highly usable terrain with multiple potential building locations positioned to capture views of the surrounding mountains while maintaining privacy & easy year-round access. The mix of open meadow & natural tree cover creates an inviting setting for a custom home, mountain retreat, retirement property, or manufactured home while still leaving plenty of room for horses, outdoor recreation, gardens, workshops, or additional improvements. Electricity is already available at the property line, helping simplify future development & reducing one of the major hurdles often associated with rural mountain properties. From the photos, the parcel showcases excellent usability with broad open spaces, gentle topography, & attractive mountain views that become more impressive as you explore the property. Glen Vista is known for its scenic setting, maintained roads, horse-friendly atmosphere, manufactured-home-friendly zoning, underground utilities, & reasonable annual POA dues while helping preserve the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. Nearby Cañon City, Salida, & Westcliffe provide shopping, dining, art galleries, entertainment, supplies, & year-round community events while still preserving the peaceful mountain lifestyle buyers come here to enjoy.
