A Hidden Gem in Carson with Petaca Canyon Views and more to be discovered! Beautiful isolation on 48 acres yet just a 20 minute drive to Taos, to the Taos Ski Valley, and to Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort and Spa. There are Petaca Canyon views with at least 10 canyon-edge building sites along the more than half a mile of canyon frontage. The middle of the stream bed in the easy access Petaca Canyon is the longest boundary of the property and is the SW property boundary. Mature pinon and juniper trees in the canyon bottom that have been twisted and formed into the shapes seen in ancient Chinese screen paintings by wind, weather, and water. The once heavily harvested trees on the north side of the land, above the rim, have recovered and are prospering. Gravel and sand Matisse Road until it ends in a 90-degree left turn onto unmarked Cuatro Ruedas Road. There is a green tee bar fence post at the property entrance. Rolling but reasonably flat potential building sites with stable basalt footings all along the canyon rim. The elements that place this property apart from all others are on the North side of the canyon walls, petroglyphs and magnificent trees along the Aguado de las Petacas. Seller financing available.

This ten acre property represents a somewhat remote and semi -private building site with fantastic views in all directions. This sagebrush covered parcel has some evergreen pinon trees on the site. The building site on the subject property that I prefer is an elevated portion of this parcel of desirable land, and the land gently slopes away to the South, West, and North from the building site providing unobstructed views. There are a few scattered residences across the landscape in this desirable area. Bring your Solar photovoltaic system to harvest your electricity from the sun, or bring a generator. Water is deep here. Most people catch water off of the roof and store their water in underground cisterns, and hire local water haulers to bring a load of water to augment the catchment during dryer times. . This type of semi remote and off grid building site has become sought out by those adventuresome souls that are willing to live a more quiet life style and live in a sustainable manner with PV Electric system and water catchment and storage, especially after the advent of this lifestyle when the popular 'earthship' homes led the way to sustainable living in this environment.
