Torreon Mountain Retreat
Description
Here's one for the "Need to go see" list. This 145 acre mountain property is located just north of Torreon, NM and sits at 6800' - 7,000' elevation. Seldom do we find a property within an hours drive of Albuquerque and Belen, NM that provides an abundance of Wildlife, tree cover to include Pinon, Pine and Cedar, a vast grassy meadow laced with Ponderosa pine, mountain grasses and wildflowers within the forest. If your goal is to build a fulltime home, getaway/hunting cabin or camping in the woods one will certainly have the choice of amazing views of the surrounding mountains or being tucked away in the shade of the trees.
Hunters will find that Elk and Mule Deer roam, graze and bed within the property daily. Located in game unit 14, the Secondary Management Zone, property owners may purchase Private Land Only Mule Deer tags. Bow season is most all of September and early January, Muzzle Loader is the last week of September and Any Legal Weapon is late October. This property should qualify for the NM EPlus Private Land Elk program although application must be made with the NMGF. Elk Hunters would have any 5 consecutive days from September 1st through December 31 to fill their tag.
Year round access is available via a private gate on Hwy 55. Electricity lines are at the highway and Domestic wells in the immediate area are approximately 150'. The property has a recent survey, no covenants or HOA. Trails throughout the property are two track and unimproved. The property is fenced in barbed wire with cedar and steel posts.
Schools, shopping, goods and services can all be found in under an hours drive within many locations such as Edgewood, Mountainair, Estancia and of course Albuquerque, NM. Recreation such as hiking, biking, hunting, horseback and off roading are just minutes away in the Manzano Mountains and Cibola National Forest. Property viewings for qualified buyers are by appointment only.
