8458 HWY 24, Minturn, CO 81645 (MLS# 1012704)

Looking to get away from it all?! This 30 acre parcel is like nothing else in the Vail area! The stunning setting offers everything you could want in a unique mountain property: Solitude, Privacy, Breathtaking Views, Dramatic Cliffs, Peaceful Aspen Groves, Pine Forest, Grassy Meadows, Colorful Rock Formations, Easy Access, and No HOA! And it all sits atop a steep canyon overlooking the Eagle River... less than 20 minutes to Vail! The parcel includes eight mines with U.S. mineral patents, but there has been no mining or development in over 100 years. This unspoiled secret gem could be your own private playground or spectacular homesite, as there are multiple potential building sites, including a thrilling cliff top. The parcel is in unincorporated Eagle County at the 9000' summit of Battle Mountain pass between Minturn and Red Cliff. Most of the land is on the sunny west side and largely hidden from Highway 24, which keeps it secluded and quiet. Cross country ski on trails through the forest, back country ski on the eastern slope, hike and explore the land for hours, or just hang out and enjoy the unparalleled views from a secluded perch atop the canyon! An amazing property and an amazing value at only $64k per acre! You must experience this property to appreciate all it has to offer, so schedule your private tour today. *Please do not access the property without an appointment. Mines are currently closed for safety. Electric access is just across Highway 24, and a well permit is included in purchase. Well and septic must be drilled.
