With Private Lake Access
- The subject property is a 1.12 acre parcel located at the corner of Tappero Avenue in the Lazy KV Estates subdivision, a picturesque mountain community just ten minutes east of Saguache and twenty minutes north of Crestone. Click here to see the subject property's location on Google Maps.
- Like most of the roads in this subdivision, Tappero Ave is a well-maintained dirt/gravel road that can be navigated by any vehicle type.
- While power lines extend thoughout most of the Lazy KV Estates subdivision, there is no power on the subject parcel. The nearest power, however, can be found roughly 500 feet north servicing nearby developed home sites. While a number of land owners in this region rely on solar and other alternative forms of energy, anyone looking to get power extended to the subject property can contact San Luis Valley Rural Electric Coop, the power company servicing this region, to inquire about the cost and/or logistics of getting connected to the grid.
- The Lazy KV Estates subdivision is part of an HOA that offers land owners a surprising number of benefits. Aside from general upkeep of the roads throughout the region, they also manage a private lake with opportunities for fishing and boating made available to dues paying land owners. Those dues, by the way, total a mere $137.00 annually and can be paid in installments throughout the year. To learn more about the Lazy KV Estates HOA, you can visit this informal Facebook page for residents of the region. NOTE: We're told a formal HOA website is in the works and should be live soon. We'll update this listing if and when that time comes.
- In addition to a private lake and campground area, Lazy KV Estates also distinguishes itself from other rural subdivisions by providing water hookups for residents. The installation fee for this is $3,500.00 and includes an underground valve and above ground spigot to help bring water to your new property year 'round. While this topic is addressed in the video at the top of this page beginning at 21:40, for more information about this feature, buyers are encouraged to contact the HOA directly at 719.256.4022.
- As is to be expected, the Lazy KV Estates HOA has a number of covenants and restrictions they're also tasked with enforcing. These covenants include an Architectural Control Committee that approves and helps land owners with all of their residential building plans. It should be noted, however, that while such Committees are usually strict about what gets built or parked within their subdivisions, all evidence here seems to suggest the contrary. For more on this potentially confusing topic please watch the video at the top of this page beginning at 16:26-21:37.
- Some general building guidelines to be aware of in this subdivision include the following: Mobile and modular homes are acceptable here, minimum square footage of structures can be 600 sqft for single story dwellings and 800 sqft for two story dwellings, residential trailers are acceptable as long as they are older then four years and at least 600 sqft and a camping trailer is only allowed while the permanent residence is under construction.
- Like most all the lots in this subdivision, the subject property features boundary stakes marking its four corners. This of course can be a great benefit to buyers as it means you will not need to incur the expense of a costly survey.
- As noted, the subject property sits in close proximity to the surprisingly quaint and artsy towns of Saguache, Crestone and Moffat. With each of these towns you'll have easy access to groceries, supplies, post offices, banks, churches and some small cafes and restaurants (see photos in the gallery at the bottom of this page).
- It should be noted that while the afformentioned small towns are within easy driving distance of the subject property, buyers will have to travel roughly forty minutes either north into Salida or south into Alamosa for larger grocery and supply runs or to access the nearest bix bog stores such as Wal Mart and Home Depot. As is to be expected, these larger towns will provide even greater options for additional servics such as shopping, dining and medical care.
- Situated in Southern Colorado's picturesque San Luis Valley, you'll find plenty of great outdoor activities to take advantage of, all within close proximity of the subject property. The Great Sand Dunes National Park is just thirty minutes south of this parcel and features the tallest dunes in North America - perfect for sand boarding and sand sledding. Zapata Falls is also close by, boasting peaceful streams and inconic water falls to explore and enjoy. Additionally, the Rio Grande National Forest with its million+ acres of trails, creeks, camp grounds and hunting areas will offer the outdoor lover in your family plenty to do for years to come (photos of all these attractions can be found in the gallery at the bottom of this page.)
- This property was closed on and its title insured through Allpine Title.
- CASH OPTION: Click the 'Buy Now' button at the top of this page marked 'Cash Price'. Here you'll be asked to make an initial Non-Refundable Earnest Money Deposit of $500.00. After we have your deposit we will contact you about funding the remaining balance. Please Note: This is NOT a financing option. If you make this deposit we will expect you to pay the remaining balance within a reasonable amount of time (a few days, say). You should NOT initiate this transaction unless you are prepared to pay the entire cost of the land.
- TITLE/ESCROW OPTION: Anyone who would like to fund and close this transaction through a title company, should also click the 'Buy Now' button at the top of this page marked 'Cash Price.' Here you'll be asked to make an initial Non-Refundable Earnest Money Deposit of $500.00. After we have your deposit we will draft a sale/purchase agreement which you'll be asked to sign to open escrow. To learn more about this process, or to see a copy of the contract you'll be asked to sign, please visit our How It Works - Buying From Us Page. For those unfamiliar with what a title company does, please visit our Title/Escrow Frequently Asked Questions page. This page goes into greater detail about the process of closing a transaction through title and escrow, answering all the common questions we typically get from our buyers.
- FINANCING OPTION: If you don’t have all the money now and would prefer to pay for the property gradually, you may elect to use the financing option we have indicated above of $4,000.00 Down and $250.00/Month. It should be noted, however, that the property will not be deeded into your name until such a time as the balance has been paid in full. Between now and that time we will have a Land Contract which will demonstrate your equitable interest in the land. Click here to see a generic version of one of our standard Land Contracts. Please note: Our land contracts allow for "180 Days Same As Cash" and have only pre-payment incentives with no pre-payment penalties.
