Nestled high above the upper Animas River Valley, the Raven's Nest Estates offer unparalleled views and direct highway access to anyone looking to build their very own off-grid mountain getaway. These unique building sites have something for everyone, from privacy to sweeping views of the Weminuche Wilderness and Durango Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad to historic mining structures and massive waterfall views. Located approximately three miles from the heart of Silverton on Highway 550, these properties can be accessed directly from the highway and have a strategically placed dirt road leading to even the most remote claim. Year round access is possible with private, plowable roads, setting these properties apart from most unincorporated home sites in the area. Electricity is nearby and there is the possibility of connecting to the power line in the future should any owners be interested; however, all claims have excellent exposure for solar power, even through the winter months. Properties also have excellent cell phone and internet service and are free from avalanche danger. Come visit Raven's Nest Estates; they'll take your breath away and you'll want to make them your new home in the San Juan Mountains. Both King sites would have particular appeal to a mining history enthusiast. On King North,the future homeowner can look forward to having their very own mine shaft on site. Out of concern for public safety, a protective grate has been placed over the opening. This could remain or be removed per the new owners preference. Along with this unique feature come awe inspiring views down into the Animas River Valley and the Weminuche wilderness beyond as well as a view of the town of Silverton in the distance.
