From the river's edge down-valley in the red rock canyon...
to beautiful mesas creeping up toward 14,000-foot peaks... to quiet subdivisions...
to authentic Colorado ranches... the diversity of homes, lots and acreage offered
in the region cannot be found in one county many other places in America. The
region offers buyers options that allow them quick and easy access to Telluride
and Mountain Village, while expanding their choices beyond the resort area.
The region covers the remainder of
San Miguel County, the heart of the western San Juan mountains. Because of its
large differences in elevation, the San Juan range includes almost every temperate
zone found in America... from arid, desert climates to high-mountain tundra
usually found only in the arctic. The sun also plays a dramatic part... a south-facing
slope can have completely different temperatures and vegetation
than a north-facing slope.
The Telluride region is also very unique
in that there are no other major destination ski resorts where single-family
35-acre parcels can still be purchased within 5 minutes of skiing and other
resort amenities. There will be very little future development available due
to San Miguel County land-use restrictions and the abundance of National Forest...
these large homesites and ranches are going quickly. |
