• Size & Potential: Almost 25 acres of affordable, buildable land ready for your plans. Plenty of room for a house, barns, or even multiple structures – or simply hold this valuable acreage as an investment in New Mexico’s appreciating land market.


• Road Access: Year-round access via dirt roads off US Highway 60 ensures you can reach your property easily. Bring in materials, RVs, or tiny homes without hassle – the established road frontage makes development straightforward.


• Ready to Build: Residential zoning means you can build a home or place a mobile/manufactured home here. With power already at the road, you save on infrastructure costs. Install a well when you’re ready to build, and you’re set for comfortable off-grid living or weekend escapes.


• Desert Beauty & Privacy: Enjoy panoramic views of Catron County’s high country – rolling terrain, spectacular sunsets, and abundant wildlife (elk, deer, and more). The secluded location provides peace and quiet, while still being a short drive to the charming Pie Town community.


• Smart Investment: Low Priced far below comparable acreage in booming markets, this parcel offers instant equity. Low carrying costs (approx. $110/year in taxes) make it easy to hold long-term. Land values in New Mexico are on the rise, so lock in this deal now and reap the rewards later.

Catron County is the largest county in land size in the State of New Mexico, but has the third smallest population of any New Mexico County. The county covers almost 7,000 square miles and is comprised of mostly rugged mountainous terrain. Less than 20% of the land in Catron County is privately owned with the balance of the land being public. Approximately 3,500 people make up the population of the county. Reserve is the county seat and largest town in the county, which boasts a population of about 400.

The Apache and Gila National Forests border one another in this area; the two forests combined cover much of Catron County. The Continental Divide zig-zags through this mountain complex which is characterized by rugged slopes, narrow canyons, rocky formations, clear mountain streams and evergreen forests. There is good trout fishing, big game hunting, and an abundance of elk, deer, bear, big horn sheep, mountain lion, and wild turkey. Most sportsmen use four-wheel drive vehicles, but horse and mule are also popular forms of transportation. There are many dirt roads throughout the National Forest in the county, but the Forest Service warns that they should be considered “dry weather” roads and should not be attempted during wet weather without first checking with the local Forest Service ranger station. A good rule to remember is that any unpaved road in Catron County is a “dry weather” road.
