2.88 Acres of Land for Sale in Central City, CO

Build your Colorado mountain dream with a major head start at 5940 Virginia Canyon Road. Set on 2.88 acres just minutes from Central City, Black Hawk, and Idaho Springs, this exceptional property combines mountain serenity with valuable infrastructure already in place.

The lot features friendly topography with a relatively flat building site nestled within a beautiful aspen grove and surrounded by healthy pines. A recent boundary line adjustment created an attractive lot shape that maximizes usability and complements the natural setting. County-maintained road access provides year-round convenience, and power is already on the property, with service located approximately 200 feet from the proposed build site.

Significant improvements have already been completed to help bring your vision to life. An engineered 3-bedroom septic system has already been installed, including a 1,250-gallon, 3 compartment concrete septic tank with pressure-dosed system and engineered soil treatment area. The property also includes 2 connected underground cisterns with approximately 4,800 gallons of water storage capacity. The generously sized cistern system helps ensure convenient potable water delivery and offers ample capacity for everyday mountain living.

The location is equally compelling. Enjoy the peace and privacy of mountain living while remaining close to historic downtown Central City and Idaho Springs dining and recreation. The property is also within approximately 2 miles of the transformative Argo Mill and Tunnel redevelopment, including the Argo Cable Car project, and near the proposed G3 Central City development - projects that reflect the continued investment and excitement surrounding this unique mountain community.

Bring your plans, your builder, and your imagination. Opportunities to purchase mountain land with this level of preparation and potential are increasingly rare.
