Located in the pristine mountain country between Walsenburg and Westcliffe, this 40-acre property has much on offer: B&B potential, live water, public land access, a well and septic system, and (making it a truly one-of-a-kind offering) a secure, underground bunker (!). The nearly 1,000 sf underground steel shelter, complete with 3 bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a kitchen, is accessed from an above ground 8'x8' room with 2 pull down bunks, making for quick and easy overnight stays on the property. The structure below has been overengineered for maximum safety, and is equipped with blast doors and a military-grade air scrubberto provide a safe retreat from any issue the world has to offer, be itforest fire or biological/chemical/nuclear incident. A productive 300' well is already in place, with a solar-powered pump. A septic system serves the underground shelter, and is stubbed for 3 additional structures, creating the potential for building a set of cabins. In addition, a 40' cargo container is included with a sale. Year-round Turkey Creek runs directly through the property, creating scenic waterfalls and natural pools. And, the parcel directly borders a full section of state land, which in turn directly borders tens of thousands of acres of national forest, offering limitless outdoor recreational opportunities. Moreover, the property has unsurpassed mountain views, and its meadows get abundant sunlight, making great locations for potential greenhouses. This property is off-grid; the seller relies on solar power and a generator, and planned to also make use of emerging battery technology going forward. Wonderfully remote, but easily accessed, the parcel is reached via a county-maintained road. There is no owners' association. ## Location - **Address:** 1501 CR 628, Gardner, CO 81040 - **County:** 8055 - **Coordinates:** 37.8726, -105.1031 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=37.8726,-105.1031 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Aj Mangum - **Brokerage:** Hayden Outdoors, LLC - **Phone:** (970) 674-1990 - **Broker Phone:** (970) 674-1990 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1501-County-Road-628_Gardner_CO_81040_M95829-46493?f=listhub&s=NYSMLS&m=11404808&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f3655599933r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1598276881r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f3187376365r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1999959605r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1916839313r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1124925104r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1807200374r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2976631882r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f3620955798r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f512248721r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1596883919r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2130832873r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2958951452r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1042248823r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f3690608118r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f4170789724r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2519779148r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f32252832r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2552005495r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f3364906840r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1838910669r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f360659109r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2726577308r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2433494254r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f3518086467r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f1482155781r.jpg) ![1501 CR 628 - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7cf2bbf0f905e130e91e7d69727180e5l-f2022857109r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 11404808 | **Updated:** 2026-08-19 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 My State MLS.
