Remember that the people that were here first had first choice of the views! That is what makes this 1960 built home so special. Our signature Elephant Butte majestically sits to your left and from there you can see the whole panorama view of all our beautiful mountains- 360 degrees worth! Charming ranch with 8 stall barn and vet room. Zoned DR70. Great place to catch the horse trails. No trailoring needed. 3 bedrooms PLUS a large den that makes a great office or family room. Room off the garage could be turned into a nice guest casita or work shop. Large over extended covered patio. Mature landscaping.
