Pinon Ridge Estates West Rural Open Space Incentive

Lots 1 - 4 and 7 and 8 have sold. Lots 5 and 6 are now available. Both lots have million-dollar views, wonderful building sites, and varying trees.

View to NNE from Lot 6 building site

Pinon Ridge Estates West contains eight lots ranging in size from 3 to almost 32 acres. The lots are broken up into two parts - a buildable part and an open space part. Both parts comprise one lot and are privately owned by the lot owner.

The subdivision was created pursuant to Chaffee County regulations authorizing "rural open space incentive" subdivisions, which require that a minimum of 2/3 of the land be dedicated to open space. 67.8% of Pinon Ridge West has been dedicated to open space.

Looking south from Lot 6 building site

The above photo was taken from the building site of Lot 6 and shows the view looking south up King Gulch.

Methodist Mountain (11,707') is the highest peak. In Salida, you plant your garden when the snow disappears from Methodist Mountain.

The photo at right is the King Gulch hiking trail heading south into King Gulch. The photo was taken in March. The snow mostly melted by afternoon. The King Gulch hiking trail is for non-motorized use only through Pinon Ridge Estates West.

The trail connects to the Rainbow Trail, running many miles east - west along the north side of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. There are a number of shorter wonderful loop hikes and mountain bike rides to be accessed up King Gulch Trail.

Lot 1 has a magical area of dense forest filled with songbirds in the summer singing in the backyard of the best building site, and a meadow. A well is already in place on Lot 1.

Lot 2 and 3 sit on a flat low ridge line. Lot 3 overlooks a small valley to the west and has a great view of Poncha Peak.

Lots 4, 5 and 6 are very similar in lay-out. Each contains 2 acres of very gently sloping, evenly graded building site with approximately one and one-half acres of taller woods, gullies and open space attached to the back (east side) of each lot.

Lot 7 is similar to lots 4, 5 and 6 but has more open space.

Lot 8 has more of a "high mountain" feel and of course is the largest and most private lot of all. A well has also been installed on Lot 8.
