Property Description

2.06 Acre Corner Lot in Humboldt Acres with Unobstructed Mountain Views Near BLM Land

Imagine waking each morning to panoramic views stretching across open desert vistas and rugged mountain peaks. This 2.06 Acre corner lot located in the Humboldt Acres subdivision of Elko County, Nevada, offers exactly that—a compelling blend of openness, privacy, and dramatic natural beauty.

This lot is conveniently positioned near Interstate 80 yet nestled against pristine Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land to the north and west of the subdivision. This property strikes a seamless balance between accessibility and a secluded, off-grid lifestyle.

Extraordinary Snow-Capped Mountain Views

What immediately sets this property apart is its remarkable location. Sitting adjacent to expansive BLM land means your backyard continues for miles, inviting endless exploration and adventures. Here, you’ll find unobstructed views of both the Ruby and East Humboldt mountain ranges, two of Nevada’s most iconic natural landmarks.

The Ruby Mountains, often praised as the “Swiss Alps of Nevada,” rise majestically above 11,000 feet, with glacially carved peaks, alpine lakes, and fascinating geological formations—including garnet deposits. Owning this lot places you at the doorstep of this awe-inspiring scenery every day.

Access & Utilities: A Lightly Prepped Canvas

With frontage along Scaup Avenue and 2nd Street—approximately 295 feet along the north and 300 feet on the west—you’ll have easy, direct access to your property. Electricity conveniently runs along Scaup Avenue, making it easier to build and live off-grid. Elko County’s flexible building guidelines allow for a range of structures, from traditional homes to fenced livestock facilities; the freedom to design according to your vision is truly yours.

A Place Where Wildlife Comes to You: Discover the Best of Land Ownership

But it’s not just about building—it’s also about the lifestyle and opportunities this property presents. The surrounding shrubland supports a diverse array of wildlife, including mule deer, antelope, and impressive elk herds, making this area a prized destination within Game Management Unit 73. Whether you’re a wildlife enthusiast, a seasoned hunter, or just craving quiet moments observing the natural world, you’ll find it here.

Recreation, Landscapes, & Adventure in Every Direction

Outdoor recreation opportunities abound. With easy access to Humboldt National Forest and South Fork State Recreation Area, each less than two hours away, you’ll have immediate entry points for hiking, camping, fishing, horseback riding, or off-roading. For those seeking adventure in the winter months, the nearby Ruby Mountains offer exceptional backcountry skiing opportunities—accessible by helicopter or snowcat—drawing thrill-seekers from across the country.

The Perks & Possibilities of Stewarding the Nevada Landscape

Financial Benefits

Beyond recreation, there are many reasons to consider ownership here. Nevada’s lack of state income tax and minimal business regulatory environment make property ownership financially attractive. Elko County, in particular, boasts competitively priced properties that offer exceptional value compared to those in nearby states or populated areas. As the region continues to draw retirees, small business ventures, and outdoor enthusiasts, investing in land here positions you ahead of future growth.

Privacy & Stewardship

This property also appeals deeply to those seeking self-sufficiency and privacy. Whether your vision is a small, independent homestead, a sustainably built off-grid dwelling, or simply a peaceful retreat to unwind and reconnect with nature, this spot provides the perfect canvas. And if your passion lies in conservation or ecological restoration, owning land adjacent to BLM areas allows for meaningful collaboration in preserving Nevada’s unique ecosystems and wildlife habitats.

Wild West Adventures

When the urge to explore beyond Elko strikes, you’re ideally situated to discover more wonders of the West. South Fork State Recreation Area has just about everything you can imagine, including a sparkling lake for boating, swimming, and fishing for trout, bass, and catfish. A variety of ducks and geese inhabit the lake, too.

Get your fill of awe-inspiring mountain adventures at the Humboldt National Forest, where winding rivers and lush valleys sit between towering peaks dusted in snow.

A little farther away, Utah’s storied Bonneville Salt Flats, a surreal landscape unlike anywhere else on earth, are just over an hour away. Continue eastward to explore the Great Salt Lake and enjoy the dynamic culture of Salt Lake City within a comfortable two-and-a-half-hour drive.

Rugged Peaks & Peaceful Plains: Your Next Great Investment Comes with Sunset Views
