About 1852 E Hwy 24 Hwy
Scenic Strategic Location! Discover an exceptional, 10+ acre parcel with frontage along the Scenic Highway 24, which is known for its incredible beauty and some of the most dramatic landscapes in the state. Caineville is Utah's best-kept secret and is renowned for its stunning, contrasting Manco Shell otherworldly landscapes that feel ancient and serene. These hidden hills are filled with incredible outdoor adventures for all types of enthusiasts. It is the precursor to the stunning Capitol Reef National Park and the Mighty Five national and state parks of southeastern Utah. With culinary water infrastructure already in place, a storage container and power nearby, this land is primed for development into short-term rentals or other commercial endeavors, catering to the 1.4 million tourists who visited the area in 2024, and a river runs through it! The property itself extends south across the Fremont River to the base of spectacular Town Point. The border with HWY 24 is fenced with a gate, and a survey was just completed on the lot, which will be provided at the buyer's request. The property itself has had much of the pre-work completed and is ready for development with culinary water on the lot, power less than 300' away, and a gravel driveway with a 40' container already in place! This lot is just minutes from the eastern gate of the 241,000-acre Capitol Reef National Park, which hosted over 1.4 million visits in 2024. This was a record for the park and represents an 81% increase in visitation since 2014 the largest increase in visitors for any of Utah's National Parks. The area is considered 'dark skies' with extremely low light pollution, perfect for star viewing and enjoying the breathtaking night skies above the large mesas in every direction. Multiple indicators of animals frequenting the area were observed on the property, including turkeys, deer, beavers, and ducks. The views from the property are punctuated by North Caineville Mesa, Town Point, and South Caineville Mesa, all visible from nearly every corner of the property. Mature cottonwood trees line the river, and the brush ground along the river gives way to the barren 'elephant hide' soils of the surrounding mesas on both the north and south sides of the property. Millions of acres of BLM, State Park, National Park, and Forest Service cover this area, and private ground is a rare find. With the proximity to the park, great road access, utilities, and views, this property would be well-suited for possible residential or STR development.
