5.13 Acres of Land for Sale in Idaho Springs, Colorado

Discover the opportunity to own more than 5 acres of mountain property in a convenient location just minutes from Interstate 70 and historic Idaho Springs. Situated off CO-103 (Squaw Pass Road), this scenic parcel offers easy access to Denver, world-class skiing, hiking, dining, entertainment, shopping, and the casinos of Black Hawk and Central City. The property features beautiful groves of aspen trees and the seasonal waters of Ute Creek, which flows directly through the land, creating a picturesque mountain setting. The adjoining parcel to the north is owned by the U.S. Forest Service, adding to the sense of privacy and natural surroundings.

Approximately 0.6 miles of the route from CO-103 is on a county-owned road that is privately maintained. Several newer homes have been built in the area, and the property offers two relatively level locations that may be suitable for a future homesite, subject to buyer verification and applicable approvals. Abundant wildlife frequents the area, making this an ideal retreat for those seeking a peaceful mountain lifestyle. Electricity is available at the road; however, a future owner will need to install a well and septic system.

Buyers are encouraged to perform all due diligence regarding building requirements, utility availability, road maintenance, and any potential water rights or permitted uses associated with Ute Creek through the Colorado Division of Water Resources. Cell phone service may be limited in the area.
