Residential Land for Sale in El Cerro, New Mexico

0.56-Acre Double Corner Lot with Road Access in a Growing NM Market

This 0.56-acre property, made up of two side-by-side 0.28-acre corner lots, offers a rare mix of location, access, and flexibility--three things that matter when you're buying land with intention, not speculation.

As growth continues south of Albuquerque, well-located parcels in Valencia County are seeing steady buyer interest, particularly those with solid access and flexible use. This property fits that profile without relying on short-term speculation

Set in the New Mexico high desert east of Belen, the land feels quiet and open, yet it's close enough to town to remain practical. El Cerro and Las Maravillas are about 10 minutes away, Los Lunas and Belen are roughly 20 minutes, and Albuquerque is within 45 minutes, placing this property within reach of ongoing regional growth without being surrounded by it.

Access is one of the strongest features here. The lots are reached by county-maintained roads, followed by a short dirt road that leads directly to the property. With corner access on two sides, the land is easier to use and more adaptable over time.

The area is zoned PD and allows camping or RV use for up to 180 days per year, giving you immediate use while you evaluate long-term plans. Building and installing well and septic are permitted as well on properties starting at 0.75 acres, which makes this configuration relevant for buyers thinking ahead about combining or repositioning parcels.

Recent developments across the area--particularly around the Albuquerque-Belen corridor--have brought steady new interest into Valencia County. This isn't about quick flips; it's about buying land that sits in the path of real demand while still offering personal use and flexibility.

Owning two adjoining parcels opens multiple options. You can hold both as a single larger property, use one and keep the other as a reserve, or sell one or both later if your priorities change. You're not locked into one single outcome.

This property is suited for buyers who value:

• solid access
• proximity to growing towns
• optional use now
• multiple exit paths later

If you're looking for land that balances quiet enjoyment with long-term positioning, this is worth a closer look.
