Discover an extraordinary opportunity to own 3.98 acres of prime riverfront property along the Arkansas River in Salida, featuring approximately 340 feet (+/-) of private water frontage and sweeping, unobstructed views of the iconic Collegiate Peaks. This rare parcel offers the ultimate Colorado lifestyle—fish, kayak, paddle, or launch a raft directly from your own riverbank. Thoughtfully situated for solar-friendly living, the property provides a sense of comfort, privacy, and harmony with the surrounding landscape.
Located in an established, covenant-protected subdivision, the lot offers not only private river access but also a dedicated fishing easement along the riverbank for subdivision property owners—an exceptional amenity for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts. The Stone Bridge Recreation Area is just moments away, offering boating, swimming, fishing, and riverside picnicking.
Only a short 10-minute drive to the heart of downtown Salida, this location blends mountain seclusion with convenience, giving you quick access to restaurants, galleries, riverfront events, and Main Street shopping, then returning home to a peaceful, private retreat along the water. Dramatic rock outcroppings, mature trees, and gently varied topography create multiple ideal building sites, making it perfect for a custom home, outdoor living spaces, and additional structures, all designed to capture the river views and mountain vistas. With low annual dues, protective covenants, and immediate proximity to backcountry recreation, public lands, and Chaffee County’s natural beauty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a solar-friendly, private, luxury riverfront sanctuary in one of Colorado’s most scenic and recreation-rich locations.
