Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 2.56-acre property is being sold as-is and includes a structure with fire damage that may be salvageable for use as a barn. A commercial well and septic system are present, but their current condition is unknown. County records indicate the parcel is considered ILLEGAL, with no previous commercial use right, and no permits of any kind are currently allowed. The property has also experienced squatters and vandalism.

The listing notes the property has a small amount of river frontage. The well permit is listed as covering 5 motel rooms, a tavern, grocery, and laundry, but the well permit and existing systems are being sold without any stated condition or operational assurances. Buyers are directed to complete all due diligence through county planning.

For buyers evaluating a redevelopment, agricultural use, or restoration requiring onsite infrastructure work, the property’s current constraints should be reviewed carefully with La Plata County before proceeding. Because the well and septic condition are not confirmed and no permits are currently allowed, prospective buyers should plan for additional verification and work as part of their due diligence. Please do not visit or walk the property; for safety reasons, the broker must be present for showings.

Key Highlights

  • Commercial well and septic on site; condition is unknown (both were reported in working order before a fire 20 years ago).
  • County considers the parcel illegal with no previous commercial use right; no permits of any kind are currently allowed.
  • Structure has fire damage but may be salvageable for a barn; sold as‑is with all debris.
