This is one of several properties we have available in Socorro County. All of these properties have platted legal road access. Even in the more remote areas where the graded roads have faded, you can easily drive anywhere in a pickup or SUV. A regular car will be a case by case basis, you will have to try it and see. A glance at Google Earth or Google Maps will show you that there aren't very many people in this area. If you're looking for an accessible yet secluded spot, these should definitely get your attention. To the east are the Manzano Mountains, providing you with fantastic views.
With an initial payment of $294 ($99 down payment + $195 document fee) we will finance the balance for as little as $121.98 per month over 5 years. If you want to buy the property outright instead of financing, you will receive a 10% cash discount.
