Property Description

THE PROPERTY IS AVAILABLE FOR SELLER FINANCING, AND AT INCREDIBLE TERMS! Welcome to Raven’s Rock. This is a truly magical 28.9-acre retreat nestled into the stunning beauty of Northern New Mexico. Perched among ancient Ponderosa Pines, Piñon and Cedar trees, and sculptural rock formations, this one-of-a-kind, off-grid sanctuary includes a charming two-bedroom main house, an amazing guest treehouse, and a retro Airstream for additional space or creative use. You'll be 30-40 min from downtown Taos, 30 min from the Rio Grande River, one hour from Angel Fire, and 30 minutes from Ojo Caliente Hot Springs Resort. Santa Fe and the Colorado border are also nearby. Easy access to the property from Highway 285. There's a reason Taos is one of New Mexico's most visited places. Let your imagination wander with this one – cattle farm, horse ranch, elk and deer hunting, potential for multi-generational homes, writers and artist retreat, neighboring Carson National Forest and BLM lands. No restrictions! Use the land as you wish – tiny homes, RVs, recreational concepts, lots of room for many opportunities and expansion. The main house has hand-crafted doors, rich wood floors, eat-in kitchen with abundant storage, walk-in pantry, a gas range, beautiful soapstone woodstove, custom-build beds with under-bed storage, stunning forest and mountain views from the expansive front deck, and an impressive off-grid infrastructure includes a powerful solar system backed by eight supercharged batteries, along with a 1,600-water catchment tank integrated into the home. Electric is available at the road, if one wanted to connect to the public grid. The catchment system has proven more than sufficient; however, a well is believed to be feasible with water expected between 150-190 feet below the surface. The property is being sold partially furnished. Tucked into the trees, the spectacular guest treehouse is a destination, and it is completely solar-powered and filled with forest charm. This treehouse is nestled literally into an 80-foot Ponderosa tree, upstairs balcony affording incredible views, and is a must-see build. Nearby, the 1963 Avion travel trailer adds a dash of nostalgic flair and versatility to the property, perfect for guests, studio space, or a quiet retreat. The property offers many other opportunities for wildlife watching and hunting and affords incredible mountain views. Whether you’re seeking a sustainable homestead, an inspiring creative retreat, or simply a place to breathe deeply and reconnect with nature, Raven’s Rock is a rare and beautiful offering. This property has its own website with more photos, videos, property documents, etc. Please contact the broker for the property website and more details.
