Some mountain lots are special because of the view. Others because of the trees, privacy, or water nearby. 511 Church Creek brings all of those together on 1.83 beautiful acres in Beaver Mountain Estates. This gently sloping, south-facing homesite is dotted with mature Ponderosa pines and genuinely unique natural rock formations that give the property character before you ever build a home. Open areas among the trees provide beautiful mountain views and multiple possibilities for positioning a future home, while the southern exposure offers wonderful winter sunshine and the opportunity to incorporate passive solar into your design. One of the property's best features is what sits directly in front of it—and what won't ever sit there. The lot borders Beaver Mountain Estates community open space, protecting the natural area in front of the property from future residential construction. Church Creek flows through this open space along the front of the lot, creating a peaceful mountain setting without the creek itself running through your building site. Follow the gravel path just steps from the property, and the open space expands to include a beautiful stretch of the South Fork of the Rio Grande River. In just a short walk, you can go from your wooded mountain homesite to the creek and then to the river—a wonderful connection to the outdoors that makes this property feel much larger than its 1.86 acres. The location within Beaver Mountain Estates is equally appealing. The property sits on a quiet, seldom-used offshoot of Church Creek Drive, offering privacy and minimal passing traffic while remaining just minutes from South Fork. Unlike many mountain properties, you don't have to sacrifice modern conveniences for a beautiful natural setting. Community water, city sewer, underground electricity, and high-speed wired fiber-optic internet are ready and waiting for you at the lot line. Private, wooded, gently sloping, and wonderfully unusual, 511 Church Creek offers a rare combination of mature trees, distinctive rock formations, mountain views, protected open space, nearby creek and river access, southern exposure, and excellent infrastructure. Bring your mountain-home plans and take a walk around this one—the land itself may be what convinces you to stay.
