Land for Sale in Taos, New Mexico
Taos County, Taos, NM 87571
Gorgeous square-shaped parcel located within an ocean of sage in the heart of Hondo Mesa just north of the 3-Mile Line. This parcel, conveying with no restrictions, is perfect for anyone looking at off-grid options but in an area closer to town. Legal access runs from east side of the parcel all the way south for two miles to HWY-64 with access onto the highway at Quino Road. This was part of the Eliseo Santistevan family land used for sheep herding with origins running back to into 1800s. The parcel can be divided if desired though, as it is, it would make a perfect building site with dark skies at night, views direct to the glimmering lights of Arroyo Seco and views directly up the Twining Valley leading to Taos Ski Valley. The parcel is 3.7 miles to the OBL and therefore around eight miles altogether to the Village of Arroyo Seco or to Taos Plaza in town.
