San Luis Valley Ranches (S.L.V.R.)
The San Luis Valley Ranches are located high in the San Luis Valley of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. Many of the subdivision’s lots have stunning views of Mt. Blanca, which at 14,345 feet is the fourth highest peak in Colorado. The Ranches are centrally located around the historic town of Fort Garland, home of the historic 19th century Fort once commanded by Kit Carson. About 25 miles to the west is Alamosa, 210 miles north is Denver, 175 miles west is Durango and 50 miles east is Interstate 25. The subdivision is larger than most in the area, covering many different parts of Costilla County.
The northern portion of San Luis Valley Ranches is north of Highway 160 on terrain that rises gently as is ascends the side of Mt. Blanca. Many of these higher elevation parcels have Piñon trees that can live up to 1,000 years. The views from these lots are spectacular in all directions. South of Highway 160 the land is flatter, with a bit less vegetation and wildlife, and generally more conveniently located near shopping areas and other conveniences.
