Property Overview

Do whatever you want on 4.53-Acre sits in a remote part of southeastern New Mexico, about 4 minutes from Hope, NM and roughly 20 minutes from Artesia.

County Road 8 / Santa Road runs directly through the middle of this parcel, which means you will have flexibility and access on each side.

Access & Getting There

Getting to the property is very easy. From Highway 82, you turn onto County Road 8, an unpaved road, and drive about 1.2 miles to reach the parcel. The property was easy to locate during the site visit and just 8-mins drive to main highway.

Driving a truck or SUV made access easier, especially on the dirt road. Passenger vehicles may experience some difficulty depending on road conditions, but overall access is simple and direct.

Terrain & Land Features

The terrain is mostly flat, with noticeable differences between the two sides of the road. The east side of the property is very flat and has lighter vegetation, making it easier for camping, parking, or future building plans.

The west side has more desert vegetation, including mesquite bushes and cactus, along with a gentle slope. The slope is mild and does not limit usability, but it does add variation to the land and a more natural desert feel.

Neighbors & Surrounding Area

This is a very remote location with no nearby houses, buildings, or structures. There are no immediate neighbors, and surrounding parcels are largely undeveloped ranch and desert land.

The closest population center is Hope, New Mexico. The area is quiet and isolated, with minimal traffic beyond occasional vehicles using County Road 8.

Utilities & Cell Service
