Rare opportunity to own 5.77 acres with no HOA in a highly desirable location just minutes from downtown Buena Vista, bordering National Forest with direct access to the Arkansas River corridor. This level to gently sloped, highly usable parcel offers a flexible building envelope with sweeping views of the Collegiate Peaks and surrounding valley. Enjoy close proximity to miles of river access via adjacent public lands extending both upriver and downriver, including the Railroad Bridge Recreation Area. Convenient access to kayaking, rafting, and Gold Medal fishing waters, along with nearby climbing and an extensive trail network throughout the Fourmile Travel Management Area, makes it easy to explore for miles right from your doorstep.
The property includes an Augmentation Certificate through the Upper Arkansas Water Conservancy District, supporting a future well. Access is provided by a county-maintained road with year-round accessibility. Electricity is available at the lot line. Residential Rural (RR) zoning allows for a primary residence with typical accessory structures, as well as the potential for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), subject to county guidelines and approvals. Gently sloping terrain enhances overall usability and building options, while the natural landscape offers a balance of privacy and accessibility.
Located approximately 4 miles from downtown Buena Vista, the property provides quick access to restaurants, shopping, and community amenities while maintaining a quiet, rural setting. A unique combination of location, usability, and recreation access—properties with this level of proximity to both town and public land are increasingly difficult to find.
