Forty-three acres of Front Range mountain land in unincorporated Boulder County, made up of three parcels offered together as one property. The land sits along Nugget Hill Road, a dirt road off Lefthand Canyon Drive roughly eight miles up the canyon from US-36, in the historic Central Mining District.
The terrain combines ponderosa pine forest with open, grassy meadows, rock outcroppings, and rolling ridgelines. From the higher ground, views stretch across the surrounding foothills and east to the plains. The ground is mostly sloped, with gentler areas worth exploring as potential building sites.
The largest parcel is 38.77 acres. The other two are patented mining claims of 1.35 and 2.88 acres, portions of the Last Dollar and Olympia lodes, privately titled land tied to the canyon's mining history. The property also borders national forest, extending the sense of open space well past the boundary lines.
Nugget Hill Road reaches the property from two directions, with access points roughly 862 feet apart, giving flexibility when planning a driveway and homesite. Electric service is available at neighboring properties. Zoned F (Forestry) by Boulder County, within the Boulder Valley RE-2 school district.
Boulder, Lyons, Longmont, and Nederland are all within reach by canyon road for supplies, dining, and services.
Boundaries are not clearly marked on the ground, so please contact the listing broker for a parcel map and directions before visiting. Buyers should verify building requirements with Boulder County.
