River Valley Ranchos Unit 1 Block 41 Lot 1 Sold

River Valley Ranchos Unit 1 Block 41 Lot 8 Available

2 adjoining 2.07 acre lots for sale in Elko Nevada for sale about 20 minutes NE of town in the River Valley Ranches totals 4.14 acres. Sitting one block away from the N Fork of the Humboldt River and only about 2.5 miles from Interstate 80. Its about an hour S of Idaho, 4 hours E of Reno, and 7 hours N of Las Vegas, NV.

All of the photos were taken of both properties and surrounding June 2012 as well as the river that flows to the east. There is a graveled road that leads N from the interstate out to the subdivision. From there the roads are improved bladed dirt roads. This area is a bit off the beaten path but still a quick jump on the interstate and you're in the busy town of Elko in minutes!

These are both corner lots at the top of the block and there is a dirt road leading along the top as well as an easement along the west and the east. It was an easy drive to these properties. It looks like the closest power is about 1/2 of a mile south at the neighbors down King River Boulevard. There are a few neighbors scattered around with homes and RV's as seen in the photos. The property is flat with tall sagebrush and native plants and looks like it can be a bit wet at times as the sagebrush is taller and looked really green. There is a bit of junk to the north on one of the neighbors lots.

The Elko Hills sit to the S and then the Ruby Mountains loom large beyond them from the S to the SE! Called the Swiss Alps of Nevada her snow-capped peaks reach up to 11,317 feet at Ruby Dome and offer beautiful views to this property. It is a beautiful view of the Adobe Mountains that sit across the other side of the river to the NE and E.

This is a rural setting in Cowboy Country to hang out or build a home. Elko continues to be a growing area even in this difficult economy. What I think is terrific about this is its only about a 20 minute drive on the interstate and you're eating a garlic steak sandwich at the Star Hotel in downtown Elko! I myself own a 20 acre piece of land a few miles N overlooking these same views. I keep telling myself some day I am going to build myself a little place there and watch it snow on the Ruby Mountains!

Within an hours drive of the property are some famous fishing holes, Ruby Lake, South Fork Reservoir and Wildhorse Reservoir. On one of my first visits to Elko County some nice gentlemen told me that Ruby Lake was the best fishing in the state! In 2011 I ran into some men who had just hauled a 350 pound elk from the Wild Horse State Recreation Area about an hour N of Elko.

I saw a sign along the interstate last time I was there that said HIRING. Elko continues to be a growing area even in this difficult economy and I continue to think that these lots so close to town are worth investing in. With many fabulous fishing holes and hunting areas within an hours drive I think this would be a great rural spot for someone looking to build a home or get away. AND OUR ASKING CASH PRICE IS WAY LESS THAN THE COUNTY ASSESSED VALUE! Enjoy! Char the Explorer : )

A video of my journeys thru Meadow Valley Ranchos Unit 11, the Hamilton-Bullion Trail and the South Fork State Reservoir where I sat thru a cattle drive in Elko, Nevada!

 

The Hamilton-Bullion Trail is an 11 mile loop for horses, hikers and mountain bikers. It goes from Elko onto BLM land and over hills offering scenic views of the Ruby Mountains, South Fork Reservoir and the Humboldt River. South Fork covers 1,650 acres and is surrounded by 2,200 acres of wildlife-filled meadow land and rolling hills. Known for its trophy-class trout and bass, and bird watching.

Elko County is located in northeastern Nevada, 295 miles east of Reno and 237 miles west of Salt Lake City. With 17,135 square miles it is one of the largest counties in the USA and is the heart of NE Nevada. A book listing American towns with the highest quality of life declared Elko, Nevada, "The Best Small Town in America." It is a small city, and a booming trading and service center for a mining and ranching area roughly the size of New England. In 2005 Relocate-America.com has named Elko City as 1 of the "Top 100 Places To Live" in the United States.

The population of Elko County is over 52,000, the town of Elko is over 18,000 and the town of Spring Creek is 12,000. Lately, Elko has evolved into a showcase for Western American Folk Art. Long famous for the National Basque Festival, held each Independence Day, a new era in Elko's cultural history began in 1985, when the first Cowboy Poetry Gathering was held. Estimates are 8000 - 10000 people attended the festival this January!

The weather in Elko County is considered ideal by many. Summer finds hot, dry afternoons with temperatures in the 90s, cooling to the low 40s and 50s by morning. Winters are moderate with lows typically in the 20s or 30s. Daytime highs during the winter months are in the 40s or 50s. Snowfall averages 42 inches per year and generally melts quickly. Yearly rainfall ranges from 9 to 10.5 inches. Sunny skies are usually seen over 300 days a year!

The land is mountainous and interspersed with low, flat valleys. The Humboldt River flows through the county, with the Ruby Mountains stretching across it in a north-south direction. The elevation in the valleys is about 5000 and reaches up to 11,300 feet at Ruby Dome. The elevation of Pilot Peak on the east side of Elko County reaches up to 10,716 feet. Elko County provides unlimited recreational opportunities with fishing, big game hunting (mule deer, elk, antelope and bighorn sheep), snowmobiling, ice fishing, mountain biking, hiking, camping, boating and skiing.

A video of my first journey around the Ruby Mountains in June 2004! Includes Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge, the Humboldt River and the Last Chance Ranch II by Spring Creek and Elko, Nevada!
