A great place as a new home or get-away for
those long, quiet weekends. Located just 2 miles south of Walsenburg on a well maintained
dirt road that is snow cleared by the county. With enough property to build additional
structures, it can be expanded for your entire family to enjoy country living with all of
the conveniences of a small town. Garbage pickup and water delivery available. This area
does not experience flooding or tornadoes as the dry line that produces severe storms
develop to the east over the plains. This property is located on a rise as the land on the
north, east and south drop off so and rainfall drains off well and the elevation precludes
flash flooding from effecting the home.
There are 2 large food stores in Walsenburg and Wal-marts located in Trinidad, 38
miles south and in South Pueblo, 48 miles north on the I-25. There are 4 convenience
stores and gas stations with the city limits along with health food, drug store and many
other businesses. This is also a great place for sportsman with fishing and hunting.
Colorado lays claim to over 300 days of annual sunshine statewide, and to more than
300 inches of snow in the mountains on a yearly basis. In fact, it snows somewhere in
Colorado every month of the year. Summer high temps in the lower elevation areas of
eastern Colorado where this property is located, as well as in the mountain foothills
including Colorado Springs and Trinidad, and other communities along the I-25, reach into
the low 80's, with morning lows in the 50s. In the mountain regions, summer highs reach
the mid 80's, with lows in the 50's. In the winter months, daily highs average near 40
degrees, while lows hovering around 15 degrees. Humidity in Colorado is very low.
