At the end of Mt Hope Drive, this rare 1.15-acre Twin Lakes property brings together features difficult to find in one alpine parcel: two consolidated lots, sweeping lake and mountain views, key utilities already in place, and public land at your doorstep. Bordering public land at the edge of San Isabel National Forest, this end-of-road property offers remarkable access to the surrounding high country. A MEWA water share certificate and tap are included, and electrical service is installed through Sangre de Cristo Electric. Enjoy the full 1.15 acres as one expansive homesite or retain the potential flexibility of two parcels for the future.
The layout of the property creates even more possibilities. Build toward the front of the parcel to capture sweeping 360-degree views, while the rear offers room for storage, recreational equipment and the gear that comes with mountain living.
The views stretch across Twin Lakes toward Mt. Elbert, Mt. Hope and the surrounding peaks. From here, adventure begins practically outside your door. Hike or bike nearby trails, climb surrounding 14ers, fish Twin Lakes or high-country streams, boat or paddleboard, explore the Colorado and Continental Divide Trails, or head to the Arkansas River for white-water boating through the famed Numbers. Winter brings skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling, while the renowned Leadville Trail 100 course winds through this recreation corridor.
Twin Lakes sits between Leadville and Buena Vista, with seasonal access over Independence Pass to Aspen and convenient reach to Ski Cooper and Copper Mountain. Few properties combine this much land, two-lot flexibility, an end-of-road setting, public-land access, water and electric infrastructure, and extraordinary lake-and-peak views. Build your mountain retreat, preserve the extra elbow room, or create a high-country basecamp in one of Colorado's most remarkable alpine settings.
