Location and Legal Description
Rio Grande Estates, Valencia County, New Mexico
1 Acre
Rio Grande Estates, NM – 1 Acre Residential Lot, Big Potential
Last but definitely not least, check out this 1 acre lot in Rio Grande Estates, located in Valencia County, NM. This property (Lot 2, Unit 3, Block 65 ) spans 1 acre and sits in a vast area of platted land on the east side of the Rio Grande. If you’re dreaming of a rural homesite or just wanting to diversify your investments with land, this parcel deserves your attention. Roads are platted to the lot and the subdivision has an entrance route, making it easier to identify your land. With open zoning and no HOA, you have the freedom to create your own desert haven. What’s more, at just $4,796 (or payments around $50/month), it’s a small investment with a big upside, especially as development momentum builds in Valencia County.
- Half an Acre = More Options: Many nearby subdivision lots are a quarter-acre; this one gives you double the space. That means extra room for a larger home, extra garage, extensive garden, or simply more buffer from neighbors. You can stretch out and enjoy the land without feeling cramped, all while still maintaining a very manageable property size.
- Access & Location: Rio Grande Estates has numerous access points from HWY 47 and other local roads near the Rio Communities area. The subdivision entrance is marked, and from there, you’ll navigate dirt roads to reach the lot. It’s part of the adventure – and also part of why values are so low now. Many people are already homesteading in nearby Rio Communities and even within sections of Rio Grande Estates using solar setups. Your land is out there waiting, with clear coordinates and legal description to guide you.
- Zoning & Flexibility: Zoned Residential, intended for single-family use. Mobile homes and modular homes are typically allowed (many folks have them in this region). While you work on getting a building permit, you can camp or RV on the property for up to 30 days at a time (or longer with a building permit in process) as per county regs. That means you can enjoy the land from day one. When you’re ready to build, you’ll likely install a well (or cistern) and septic, and go solar for power – truly embracing a self-reliant lifestyle. The beauty is, you’re in control: there’s no HOA telling you what to do or costly utility bills if you choose off-grid solutions.
- Natural Setting: Expect beautiful New Mexico horizons – sunrise over the distant Manzano Mountains, sunset over the Rio Grande basin. The land itself is mostly level, sprinkled with wild desert grasses and shrubs. At night, the stars are brilliant, thanks to minimal light pollution. By day, enjoy the quiet and watch for roadrunners or jackrabbits. You’ll have a tangible sense of freedom and space that city dwellers can only dream of. Plus, the Rio Grande River and its bosque (woodlands) are not far to the west, offering greenery and wildlife in this desert region.
- Low Costs, High Gains: Financially, this property is a no-stress addition. Property taxes are about $5 per year (per half-acre) – practically pocket change – and owner financing requires $0 down in this case, making it incredibly accessible. As Valencia County continues to grow (with developments creeping outward from Los Lunas and Belen), raw land like this is bound to appreciate. Land is a finite resource, and metro Albuquerque’s expansion makes this a strategic hold for the future. Meanwhile, you get to enjoy it however you please.

Building/Camping/RVs: As this area is designed with residential development in mind, single family homes are acceptable here as well as mobile and modular homes. RVs are only acceptable here for thirty days at a time or up to twelve months with a building permit. Shipping container homes would likely be acceptable if erected per state building code guidelines while tiny homes, yurts and earthship homes would likely be deemed unacceptable.
