60 Acres of Privacy & Panoramic Views - Bordering Carson National Forest - Ojo Caliente, NM. Just five minutes from the renowned Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort, this exceptional 60-acre offering-two parcels totaling 20 acres and 40 acres-delivers unmatched privacy, sweeping mountain vistas, and a direct border with Carson National Forest. Enjoy stunning views of Pedernal, the Sangre de Cristo range, and Taos Mountain. The land features a diverse pinon-juniper forest, fragrant white sage, cacti, native grasses, and wildflowers. Recognized as a critical wildlife habitat by a local conservation group, the property supports elk, deer, raptors, and other native species. Fiber internet is available, and electric service can be tied in via an easement to a nearby line. There is no water system on site, so a well or hauled water will be needed. Access is via a recorded road easement, with driveway construction required to reach the build site. Zoning is residential, making it ideal for off-grid living, a weekend retreat, or a nature-based homestead. The location offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience: just five minutes to hot springs, dining, and spa services; forty-five minutes to the art, skiing, and cultural offerings of Taos; and an hour and a half to Santa Fe's historic plaza and world-class galleries. With its combination of beauty, privacy, and easy access to both recreation and culture, this is a rare opportunity to own a stunning piece of Northern New Mexico's most sought-after landscapes.
