Land, acreage and building lots in Grand County

Zoning, access, utilities, wells and septic, sorted out before you buy land in Grand County.

Buying land is buying questions

A house shows you what it is. Land makes you figure it out. Before you buy a parcel in Grand County, you need answers on access, water, septic, utilities and what you're allowed to build. Getting those wrong costs far more than the land.

The checklist

  • Legal access and who maintains the road, especially in winter.
  • Water. Most land outside town relies on a well.
  • Septic. The ground has to support a system for the home you want.
  • Power and internet. How far, and what it costs to bring them in.
  • Zoning, covenants and buildability. What the land and any HOA allow.

I help you work through each one, and I can connect you with local well and septic testers and other pros who know Grand County ground.

Where the land is

  • Kremmling: ranches and acreage at the county's lowest prices.
  • Parshall: very rural ranch land on the Williams Fork and Colorado rivers.
  • Granby: acreage close to town, plus homesites in Granby Ranch and Grand Elk.
  • Tabernash and Winter Park Highlands: bigger wooded lots between Fraser and Granby.
