Looking southeast over the two lots - you can see the graded road that runs along the west side of the property and the power that crosses through the lots as well!
These 2 adjoining 2.5 acre lots are located in Pine Meadows Ranch on the back side of El Morro National Monument in northwest New Mexico near the town of Ramah. It is about an hour south of Gallup, New Mexico and an hour west of Grants, NM near the Arizona State line. Albuquerque is about a 2 hour drive to the east. This is a fascinating rural area, well off the beaten path. The area is filled with stunning rock formations and big tall rich red mesas, El Morro being one of them!
The two lots make up a beautiful big chunk of land in a very peaceful setting. With power to the lots and a graveled road only one lot away they are well worth checking out! All of the photos were taken in August 2009 of the property and surrounding views. There is power on the northwest corner of lot 271 and it then heads to the northeast crossing lot 272 as well. Peaceful Drive runs along the west of the property and is a bladed dirt road in very good shape. It is also the dedicated easement. The road is marked and just off of Pine Meadow Drive. Pine Meadow Drive is an excellent graveled road that sits one lot to the south.
There is a neighbor just to the north as seen in the photos and aerial photos. I saw property markers and stakes. The property is fairly flat with a gentle roll to the northeast. There are lots of medium tall pines scattered around - very nice! There is pretty views of the treed rolling hills to the north! It was a beautiful day and the wildflowers were blooming making for plenty of color. Rich reds, yellows, greens - this really is a beautiful place.
The property is zoned for either a home or RV. Horses are allowed up here and some owners use this in the summer months to escape the heat of the valley floor and come ride their horses up here. I love to spend the day looking at land in Pine Meadows and appreciate the opportunity to once again offer property here! My notes say 5 stars for power, pines and excellent access! If you have been looking for a place for peace and serenity check this out. The value of the power and a graveled road one lot away make this a valuable piece of land! Enjoy! Char the Explorer : )
You can see Ranch Drive in this photo - a graveled road just to the south. The streets are marked and easy to locate.
This is the neighbor to the north on lot 273.
I zoomed in on the tree covered hills in the distance to the north!

COUNTY INFORMATION:
Photo Update August 2009 - we stopped by Pine Meadow Ranches to view a few properties. The county road to the subdivision had recently been oiled and graded and was easy to drive - nice to see that done. There were plenty of beautiful wildflowers blooming and I had my photo taken in front of El Morro!
 
 
 
Cibola County is home to El Morro National Monument, El Malpais National Monument, The Ice Caves and Bandera Volcano. Click here for a County map showing the national forests and historical sites in the area. Ramah is the nearest town with minimal shopping facilities, groceries, gas, schools and post office. Complete shopping would be located in Gallup fifty miles northwest or Grants fortyfive miles east.
Pine Meadows sits on the back side of the El Morro National Monument. The top of the monument extends out to the South and part of this subdivision is sitting up on the back side of the monument! This can be seen in one of the map links provided above. It is truly a beautiful, clean, well maintained subdivision! The higher elevation of 7200 feet makes this a great escape during the summer months to cooler temperatures. All of the lots were surveyed and staked at the time parcel maps were recorded with the County.
This is such a beautiful subdivision and well worth your efforts in checking out! It is easy to locate the subdivision and pretty easy to find your way around since many of the streets are marked. The main roads have been graveled and the dirt roads are pretty easy to travel. So if you are seeking that gorgeous beautiful spot for a cool mountain retreat jump in your vehicle and check this one out! I love the native feel of the land and it is a very relaxing setting. When I get asked whats the most beautiful areas of all the places I travel to I always include Ramah!
A stunning view of the rich colored rocks in this area and a shopping center near Ramah! February 2005:

ADDITIONAL STATE INFORMATION:
New Mexico's new liquid waste regulations went into effect in September of 2005. These regulations will provide the highest quality to the environment and was greatly needed with the drought situations over the years. Smile4u Inc greatly encourages you to research the new regulations to understand what you will be allowed to do with your property. We have not researched the ground to depth water in any of the areas we sell land in. If the property does not meet the new standards for conventional septic systems, other ideas to research are: installing complete retention systems such as holding tanks, waiting till public utilities are provided in the street, or to purchase an adjoining property. The new regulations for undeveloped lots platted before February 1st, 1990 require at least 3/4 of an acre for a conventional septic system and 3/4 of an acre in areas with depth to ground water 100 feet or less. There are sunset provisions that allow a 3-5 year period for you to install using the old guidelines. After the sunset period is over you will need to comply with the new regulations. If you would like to see a copy of the new regulations that we obtained from the State please Click Here. We also have information we can email you if you would like to research retentions systems. We actually came across a subdivision in Kansas a few years ago that had several hundred properties that all were required to use holding tanks so don't be afraid to think outside the box!
