This is a rare opportunity to own a 0.17-acre vacant residential lot located right in the charming mountain town of Fairplay, Colorado in the heart of South Park. This beautiful property offers everything you need to build your dream home, vacation retreat, or income-generating investment property. With electricity and city water and sewer services accessible, this lot is ready for development without the complications of off-grid building.
This property features breathtaking views of Sheep Mountain and is one of the few remaining vacant lots within Fairplay proper—making it a valuable long-term investment. Notably, there is no HOA or Covenants, which gives you freedom and flexibility for development.

Fairplay has recently updated its development code to allow Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) by right. This means you can now build a single-family home plus an ADU without needing additional approval—ideal for anyone looking to live in one unit and rent the other, or to create a multigenerational living setup. The property has already been surveyed, saving you time and money in the planning phase.
