Description
Located in the highly desirable Canones Creek Canyon, this 55.47-acre property offers an exceptional opportunity to build a mountain home, vacation cabin, or private camping retreat. The property includes approximately 22.5 acres of productive hay meadow with 2.5 acre-feet of irrigation water annually, according to New Mexico State Engineer records—a valuable asset that enhances both the beauty and usability of the land. Surrounded by views of the Canones Creek Gorge and the mountains of northern New Mexico and Colorado, the setting captures the best of the area's natural landscape. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat, a horse property, or a recreational getaway, this property provides the space and resources to make it your own. The irrigation system is currently being managed by a neighboring landowner under a gentleman's agreement in exchange for a portion of the annual hay production, allowing the fields to remain productive. Partially fenced and suitable for horses or cattle, the property also attracts abundant wildlife, with opportunities to apply through the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish for hunting permits. Located just a short drive from Chama, you'll enjoy the privacy of a scenic mountain setting while remaining close to year-round amenities, including shopping, restaurants, the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, fishing, hiking, and access to the Carson National Forest.
