Basin Ranch Road

BASIN RANCH ROAD…
Against the southern slope of Carrizo Peak in Lincoln County, New Mexico. $289,900.

This ranch features a 3 bedroom, 2 bath (1000 sq') cabin that sits on the northern boundary of 120 pristine acres.

Forty of the acres surround the house and are all fenced and an adjacent 80 acres are fenced on three sides.

This property is perfectly suited for someone who wants to run a few head of cattle or their own riding horses. Property includes a nice small barn/loafing shed and tack room very suitable for the livestock and storage.

The property also includes a proven well with 280 acre-feet of water rights and a windmill that makes one think
of the Old West. The excess water will spill over into a very small pond that when full attracts antelope, hundreds
of Mourning Doves and many of the other native birds and animals that live on the Western plains…..
The Meadow Lark call is always heard !! The water is also used for the drip irrigation system that
waters the few trees that surround the cabin.

The viewshed from this property is just spectacular. The southern exposure while sitting on the front porch
provides a breathtaking long view of Sierra Blanca Mountain and the Nogal Peak….two of the best known peaks
in all of Lincoln County. Walk out the back door and Carrizo Peak dominates the skyline. Every evening as the
sun sets, this peak turns beautiful shades of pink and orange as twilight creeps across the valley. Just to the east
of the property is the Vera Cruz Mountain and it provides a truly wonderful back drop to the rising sun every
morning or the rising full moon at night. Then if that were not enough, the entire property is surrounded by pasture land filled with waving gramma grass. Cattle, horses and antelope are always seen somewhere on the horizon.

The Property is very private located at the end of Basin Road, yet only 6 miles from the wonderful small town of Carrizozo [ the County Seat for Lincoln County ] with restaurants, galleries, museums, grocery store, gas stations, motels, a 9 hole golf course with a small stocked lake with bike paths and 1,200 friendly people. At night one can sit on the front porch and see the lights of Carrizozo [ which means “tall grass” in Spanish ] twinkling in the distance.

A more picturesque property on the grasslands of the Tularosa Basin would be very hard to find. Whether you make it your full time home or a property that you use as a retreat throughout the year, do not pass up the chance to take
a close look at the Basin Road Ranch…you will not be disappointed.
