Socorro County - 435 Sawmill Canyon Road, San Antonio, NM
We are proud to present the Sawmill Canyon Ranch. It is both a hunting and livestock ranch consisting of 10,902 deeded acres and 9152 BLM lease acres for a total of 20,054 acres. The ranch is currently located in Unit 17 with NM Dept. of Game & Fish. The topography consists of vast canyons, rolling hills, and expansive panoramic views of distant mesas. The ranch has a wide range of ecosystems, high mountain forests, lush alpine meadows, and the more arid desert hills. Elevations range from 5300' to 8300'. There is a rich array of wildlife that consist of elk, mule deer, mountain lion, antelope, quail, dove and black bear among others. A portion of the ranch has a conservation easement.
The sprawling southwest style ranch house has 5 bedrooms and 6 baths. It has a stucco exterior and metal roof. The road into headquarters meanders to the house, barn, and pens. Beyond the main house is a separate 3-bedroom 2-bath double wide manufactured home currently occupied by the foreman. In addition, there is a bunk house / apartment next to the main house. The ranch is watered by five water wells and a water right to a spring located on the neighboring National Forest which feeds a pipeline system.
The Sawmill Canyon Ranch is classified in a secondary elk management region by the NM Game & Fish Dept. allowing for flexibility in harvest on the ranch. The current owner has hunted the ranch very selectively in past years. Hunting in this region in New Mexico does provide additional income to ranchers. The elk hunting is allowed on a primitive basis meaning archery and muzzleloader are acceptable. Mule Deer may be harvested with rifle, muzzleloader, and archery.
The Sawmill Canyon Ranch is located approximately 11 miles west of Interstate 25 on a maintained county road. It is roughly 25 miles south of Socorro, NM and 125 miles west of Ruidoso, NM. The proximity to larger airports is approx .140 miles north of El Paso, or 100 miles south of Albuquerque.

Socorro County - Bosque, NM
Rio Grande Estates is an underdeveloped subdivision in Socorro County, New Mexico. This property is Rio Grande Estates, Unit 15, Block 1011, Lot 20. Lot 20 is a fantastic property. It is large, approximately 0.7 acre. It is conveniently about 200 yards from Highway 60. Interstate Highway 25 and Highway 47 are also just a few minutes away.
Lot 20 was originally laid out as a commercial lot, as indicated by the four digit block number. Highway 60 goes to the east past Amarillo, Texas. On its way through New Mexico it goes through Socorro, Datil, Encino, and Clovis. To the west it goes to and past Phoenix, Arizona.
There is no zoning in Socorro County. You are not limited to commercial uses for your property. This is virtually unrestricted land. You can build your dream residence, or you can just RV or camp on your property indefinitely while you hold it for investment. There are no subdivision restrictions, you just have county and state regulations. There are no Property Owners Association (POA) or Home Owners Association (HOA).
The mountain views are fantastic. You will be close to Los Lunas and Belen, and can ride on the passenger rail system for trips to Albuquerque and Santa Fe.
Utilities have not been run to this property. Power is only about 175 yards away. You can check into having power run to the property, or choose solar. You will probably want to talk with a water well driller or consult the New Mexico Office Of The State Engineer.
Everyone qualifies for the same financing. We do not run credit checks. With an initial payment of $294 we will finance the balance for as little as $120.21 per month for nine years. Or you can buy the property outright instead of financing, and receive a 10% cash discount.
