A beautiful, very private Pinon/Juniper 40 acre woodlands lot with views all the way to Colorado and of Santa Fe lights at night. Incredible sunsets! Ready to build. A well is in place with 3 acre feet of water rights, recent pressure tanks and 2500 gallon water storage tank. Septic tank and 220V line in place. The lot is not splittable. HOA is in place, but there are no fees. Guest house, barns, creative spaces allowed. Santa Fe County regulations apply. Access is off Vista Del Oro Road off Gold Mine Road and the lot backs up to Corazon de Oro Road. A great location to build your dream contemporary or classic Santa Fe style home or family compound. Via the scenic and historic Turquoise Trail, Highway 14, it is 30 minutes to Santa Fe, 55 minutes to Albuqureque, 10 minutes to the historic towns of Madrid and Cerrillos. Good fire protection with a new station in nearby Cerrillos. Horses allowed. Commercial development is not allowed.
Once home to the large mining community, Madrid is now a sleepy little town of artists. With an ice cream parlour and old fashioned businesses, Madrid feels other-worldly to visitors. Homes here are early 20th century wooden structures painted a variety of colors. Just north of Madrid is Cerrillos, a traditional New Mexico village of older adobes and quaint shops.
The Turquoise Trail! A beautiful road from Santa Fe all the way to Albuquerque. With many lots 2.5 acres or more, this area is perfect for raising horses on wide open spaces with fewer building restrictions than in the city of Santa Fe. The famous Eaves Movie Ranch where movies like “The Cheyenne Social Club” and “Silverado”were filmed completes the Old West feeling.
This rapidly growing area with plans for expansion extending into the 2050’s is largely made up of rolling hills dotted with pinon and juniper. Most of the communities located here have extraordinary views of the Jemez, the Sangres and the Sandias.
