Very few riverfront properties come to market on the Arkansas River in Central Colorado. A property with this acreage, privacy, and river access is even more rare. 21 acres with almost a half mile of Arkansas River frontage just outside Salida, Colorado. 600 +/- feet of private river frontage combined with an additional 1600+/- feet of river frontage on the adjoining public BLM land (which has little or no public access) creates a dream oasis on the Gold Medal waters of the Arkansas River. Prime building location perched above the river with up close views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range and the Collegiate Peaks in the distance and far enough from the highway to enjoy the tranquility of the river and views. There is power on the property in two locations and a drilled well (well may need to be re-permitted and tested.) With easy access to the highway, you can be in Salida in 15 minutes or Canon City in 45 minutes. Approximately 40 minutes from Monarch Ski Area, under 2 hours to Colorado Springs airport and under 3 hours to Denver International Airport. Hundreds of miles of four wheeling/ATV trails, and thousands of acres of public land for hiking, hunting, or just exploring within minutes of the property. No HOA, covenants or conservation easement in place. Property is subdividable under county land use code creating an investment opportunity for future development. Property is not in a flood plain as shown on FEMA maps. FEMA approved Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) is available upon request.
