Just twenty miles from Santa Fe and a world away, these 80 acres offer a perfect blend of rural living and modern convenience. Separated into two adjacent 40-acre lots, with a well with an excellent flow rate, well-maintained gravel roads, and underground power, this property offers expansive vistas and country quiet while still being easy to access and develop. Sited at the shoulder of a ridge where the Ortiz foothills begin to drop to the Galisteo basin below, the lots have an interesting and varied topography, with multiple flat and accessible build sites as well as dramatic arroyos. Views of the Ortiz and the Sangre de Cristos dominate, while some potential building sites offer 360-degree views. Two lots present greater building opportunities than a single lot would, and the neighborhood is gated, but has no HOA. Covenants have style restrictions but no minimum build sizes; buyers seeking to build a smaller home would find a place here. Minutes from dining and entertainment in Madrid and Cerrillos. Backs to a larger ranch for increased privacy. Horses welcome. Gated, please make an appointment to see.
