Homesite Property In Guadalupe County

Large Homestead Property In Guadalupe County

Secluded, Off Grid, Convenient to I-40, Santa Rosa Is Nearby

Hollywood Ranch Unit 2 Lot 18 is a beautiful 12.35 acre property in Guadalupe County, New Mexico, just outside historic Santa Rosa, the Guadalupe County seat.

Explore Historic Route 66 Country!

Santa Rosa is a classic Route 66 community on the Pecos River and is known as the “City of Natural Lakes.” The area offers an amazing variety of outdoor recreation. There is fishing, boating, and hiking at Santa Rosa Lake State Park, plus swimming and world-class scuba diving at Santa Rosa's famous Blue Hole, an 81-foot-deep natural spring with remarkably clear water.

History is everywhere in this part of New Mexico. Explore the neon signs and roadside Americana of Historic Route 66, visit the Route 66 Auto Museum, or take the scenic drive along the Pecos River to historic Puerto de Luna, an old Spanish Colonial community once frequented by Billy the Kid. Santa Rosa also offers historic architecture, parks and connections to New Mexico author Rudolfo Anaya and the classic film The Grapes of Wrath.

This is wide-open New Mexico country with plenty to explore!

Survey monuments were established at the property corners as part of the original subdivision survey. The property is roughly rectangular and has extensive frontage along County Road 1D on its eastern side.

One of the property's strongest features is accessibility. County Road 1D runs along the property's east side. Interstate 40 is only about one mile south, with access from County Road 1D by way of approximately 0.2 mile of the frontage/service road that runs along the north side of the highway. Despite the rural setting, it therefore avoids the long drives over remote subdivision roads that are common with inexpensive New Mexico acreage.

The property is also conveniently situated in relation to Santa Rosa and recreation. Santa Rosa Lake is approximately 5.5 miles northwest as the crow flies, while the actual drive to Santa Rosa Lake State Park is about 13 back road miles.

Approximately 10.43 driving miles from the property brings you to the large I-40 interchange on the east side of Santa Rosa, where fuel, restaurants and numerous other businesses and services are available as you continue into town. This area includes Love's Travel Stop, Silver Moon Cafe and Santa Rosa Route 66 Airport (SXU), a public two-runway airport.

The combination of 12.35 acres, county-road frontage, very close I-40 access, proximity to Santa Rosa and Santa Rosa Lake, and a genuinely rural/off-grid setting, make this an extremely desirable property. 

Although there are electricity and water in the subdivision, they have not been run to this property yet. For the foreseeable future you will be off grid, with no utilities. As best we can tell, there is nobody living within a mile of this beautiful property!

There is no county zoning and no subdivision restrictions. This property can be ideal for a tiny home on wheels or an RV, as long as you properly dispose of your waste. Permanent tiny structures are fully legal under New Mexico’s progressive Appendix AQ code. You submit your building plans directly to the state CID office in Roswell for standard permitting and inspections.

At just over 3,000 square miles, Guadalupe County is almost double the size of Rhode Island. Yet its total population is only about 4,450 and most of those are in the city of Santa Rosa.

This can be your dream off grid homestead, a true have your cake and eat it too situation. A gorgeous secluded location, and yet with very convenient access to I-40 and Santa Rosa.

The purchase price is $29,975 plus a $195 document fee. With just a $294 initial payment we will finance the balance for as little as $378.46 per month over 10 years. We do our own financing. Everyone qualifies for the same loan terms, there are no credit checks. Or you can choose to buy the property outright instead of financing, and receive a 10% cash discount.
