Buckaroo Rd, Rodeo, NM 88056

This versatile 40-acre parcel of raw land is located about two miles north of the Rodeo, NM town site at the edge of New Mexico's infamous "Bootheel" country. The property has overhead electrical power along its southern boundary + underground telephone and internet service at the east property line. This offering is zoned for mixed commercial and/or residential use and surrounded by adjacent lots in the Rodeo Ranches Subdivision. The land is flat to gently sloped with good all-weather access from paved NM Hwy80 about one-half mile to the west. There are many good building sites on the property and all have excellent big-sky views of the 10000-foot Chiricahua Mountains to the west and the more desert-like Peloncillo Range to the east. The world-famous Chiricahua Desert Museum is located less than a mile to the south and the "sister" community of Portal, AZ is just minutes to the west. The Rodeo valley is well-known in the amateur and professional astronomy communities due to its extremely dark and clear night sky. Situated at the intersections of the Chihuahuan and Sonoran Deserts known as the "Sky Islands" region of the desert southwest, the area is recognized for its exceptional biodiverisity and world-class bird-watching. With a moderate and pleasant year-round climate, this unique property is priced to sell and would make a great winter retreat from colder climes.
