10860 Happy New Year

Soak in the sunshine and breathe deep! This 6-acre hillside retreat above Cripple Creek is a rare opportunity to create something meaningful in the heart of the Colorado Rockies. Framed by a sweeping landscape of grassy knolls and mature evergreens, the property invites you to pause, take in the stillness, and imagine the possibilities. A gently winding gravel driveway brings you up through open meadows and scattered trees to a leveled site that was carefully cleared to take full advantage of the setting. Surrounded by native rock, pine, and aspen, the space offers a quiet place to camp, park an RV, or begin planning a future home. With sun pouring in from dawn to dusk, it is an ideal location for a solar-powered lifestyle rooted in simplicity and self-reliance. Panoramic views stretch toward the Continental Divide, with ridgelines rolling into the distance and the historic town of Cripple Creek visible just below. The scene is often touched by blooming wildflowers, radiant sunsets in shifting tones of gold and red, and mountain skies filled with endless stars. While public utilities aren’t available, private wells are common in the area, drawing from groundwater that locals often praise for its fresh, pure taste. With no HOA or restrictive covenants, you are free to shape this land to suit your plans, whether that means weekend escapes or a more permanent mountain base. Though the setting feels peaceful and remote, you are just minutes from the charm and activity of Cripple Creek and close to endless outdoor adventure including hiking, hunting, and fishing. Woodland Park, Florissant, and even Colorado Springs are all within reach, offering a rare balance of seclusion and access. Come see what the view looks like from the top; it’s even better than you imagined!
