Property Description
Historic Gold Mining Property. 81.85 Acres in Granite, Colorado.
Discover the rugged beauty and rich mining history of this 81.85-acre historic gold mining property in Granite, Colorado, bordering both Lake and Chaffee Counties. Associated with the Hersey Mining Corporation, the property offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial piece of Colorado's historic mining country. The land is heavily wooded and characterized by a diverse mountain landscape, with a combination of steep slopes and more gradual climbs throughout the property. Evidence of the area's historic mining activity and tailings create a unique sense of place and connection to Colorado's past. For those seeking privacy and a more remote mountain setting, the property offers no HOA restrictions and borders BLM land, providing a beautiful backdrop of rugged terrain, mature trees, and expansive mountain surroundings. There are three access roads serving the property. The primary route is a dirt road that passes through two gates and private property. Two additional roads provide unobstructed access to the property; these are dirt mountain roads with more challenging terrain and require high-clearance 4WD vehicles. Due to the property's rugged terrain, a high-clearance 4WD vehicle is recommended for traveling throughout the acreage regardless of the access route used. Despite its secluded mountain character, the property is conveniently located near several Colorado mountain communities. The historic town of Leadville is approximately 30 minutes north on Highway 24, while Buena Vista is approximately 30 minutes to the south via Highway 24. These communities offer restaurants, shopping, and many other amenities. Whether you are drawn to Colorado's mining history, the privacy of a heavily wooded mountain retreat or the opportunity to own a large tract bordering public land, this historic Granite property offers a distinctive Colorado experience.
