Detailed Info About this Parcel

Terrain & Build Potential: Both lots carry a gentle slope and are blanketed in mature conifers with a pine-needle floor beneath the canopy. Estate Residential zoning in Costilla County allows a single-family home per parcel β€” minimum 600 sq ft of finished living space (kitchen and bathroom required). One dwelling per parcel. The two contiguous lots together give you room for a cleared building site, privacy buffers, and plenty of natural forest to preserve. Septic can be installed with the required OWTS permit.

Utilities & Access: Purnell Ln provides direct dirt-road access to both parcels. Power lines are approximately 7,000 feet from the parcels, with utility extension estimated at a minimum of $145,000 β€” making off-grid solar or generator setups the practical path here. Water would be via well. All applicable county permits (Land Use, construction, road access, OWTS) are required before building begins.

The Setting: Forbes Park is a large recreational and residential subdivision in the Costilla County Sangre de Cristo Mountains, known for its high-elevation pine and aspen forest and abundant wildlife.
