Description

40 ACRES NEAR MURDOCK MOUNTAIN — PRIVATE NORTHERN NEVADA HOMESTEAD & RETREAT Montello, Elko County, Nevada A rare opportunity to create something entirely your own in the wide-open landscape of Northeastern Nevada. Escape the congestion, noise, and limitations of city living and discover 40 acres of undeveloped land in the Murdock Mountain area of Elko County, Nevada. Located at: 0 Sec 29 Twp 39N Rge 68E MDB&M Montello, NV 89830 Elko County, Nevada This expansive 40-acre parcel offers the privacy, open space, and freedom to design a property around your own vision. Whether your dream is a private Nevada homestead, a secluded vacation cabin, a family retreat, an animal property, or a long-term land investment, this property provides a substantial blank canvas in one of Nevada's most remote rural settings. YOUR OWN PIECE OF THE HIGH DESERT Forty acres gives you room to think beyond the limits of a conventional residential lot. Imagine arriving at your own private retreat, leaving the traffic and crowded neighborhoods behind, and looking across the expansive Nevada landscape toward the surrounding mountain country. This is property for someone who values: Privacy Open space Dark skies and wide horizons Rural living Self-sufficiency Outdoor recreation Room for animals A future custom home or cabin A private family retreat Long-term land ownership The property is located near Murdock Mountain, a recognized geographic feature of Elko County, and approximately 9 miles from Montello based on published geographic information. A BLANK CANVAS FOR YOUR VISION There are no existing buildings or structures on the property. That means the next owner isn't buying someone else's unfinished project. You're starting with a blank canvas. A future owner could explore creating a custom homestead, cabin retreat, ranch-style property, recreational basecamp, or private getaway — subject to applicable county regulations, permits, access requirements, water availability, septic requirements, and any other applicable restrictions. The Elko County assessor identifies this parcel under Use Code 120: Vacant – Single Family Residential, with 40 acres recorded in the Gamble District. The recorded legal description is NW4NE4, Section 29, Township 39N, Range 68E, MDB&M. OFF-GRID BY DESIGN This is an undeveloped rural property without existing water or electrical service. For the buyer who wants independence rather than city infrastructure, that can become part of the vision. A future owner may investigate: WATER: A private well would need to be investigated and developed if appropriate. The seller makes no representation regarding groundwater depth, quantity, quality, or the feasibility or cost of drilling a successful well. Buyers should conduct their own water and well due diligence before purchase. POWER: There is no existing electrical service on the property. A future owner may investigate solar, battery storage, generator systems, or connection to utility service if available and economically feasible. The proximity and availability of electrical service should be independently verified. SEPTIC: A future residence would require an appropriate wastewater solution and applicable approvals. This property is therefore best suited to a buyer who appreciates the opportunity to create a custom rural/off-grid lifestyle rather than expecting a turnkey home site. BUILD YOUR OWN NEVADA RETREAT Picture a secluded cabin surrounded by open Nevada landscape. A small homestead with gardens and animals. A weekend retreat where the stars replace city lights. A private family compound designed from the ground up. A place to disconnect from the constant pace of modern life. Or simply a substantial parcel of land held for the future. The possibilities depend on the buyer's plans, budget, site conditions, and applicable county approvals. ROOM TO CREATE With 40 acres, you aren't purchasing a typical suburban residential lot. You are acquiring approximately 1.74 million square feet of land and the opportunity to determine how that space fits your long-term vision. The property could appeal to buyers looking for: HOMESTEADING Create a private rural lifestyle with a future residence, garden areas, outbuildings, and animals, subject to applicable regulations. VACATION RETREAT Develop a private cabin or recreational getaway where you can leave the city behind. RURAL LIFESTYLE Enjoy the solitude and open space of Northeastern Nevada. LAND INVESTMENT Hold a substantial parcel of Nevada land for future use or development, recognizing that land values and future development potential are not guaranteed. OUTDOOR RECREATION Use the property as a base for exploring the surrounding high-desert and mountain environment, subject to applicable public/private land boundaries and access rules.
