Canon Escondido, Chimayo, NM 87522

Hidden in a canyon on the western slope of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, this 53-acre offering consists of three elevated lots in one of Northern New Mexico’s most private and scenic settings. Surrounded on all sides by Forest Service land within a small enclave of just 18 privately held parcels, the property offers exceptional seclusion along with sweeping views of the Jemez Mountains, the Rio Grande Valley, and the high peaks of the Sangres. The terrain is classic Northern New Mexico high desert, with piñon and juniper forest, rolling hills, rock outcroppings, and multiple elevated vantage points. West-facing building sites capture remarkable sunsets and broad mountain views. Two leveled homesites are already in place, along with established driveways, electrical transformers, and access to two shared wells. Behind two gates for added privacy, the property feels remote and protected while remaining accessible on well-maintained county roads. Located just 29 miles from the Santa Fe Plaza, this is an outstanding opportunity for a private retreat, full-time residence, or legacy property with room to build and explore.
