About This Home

Escape to the peace and privacy of Northern New Mexico with this incredible off-grid retreat located on 83 acres in the sought-after Ticonderoga subdivision. Perched to capture truly breathtaking panoramic views of the Brazos Canyon, the iconic Brazos Cliffs, and the valley stretching far beyond, this unique one-bedroom getaway offers the perfect balance of comfort, recreation, and seclusion. Designed for self-sufficient mountain living, the property features a top-of-the-line solar power system, propane, septic system, and a 1,250-gallon water cistern, allowing you to enjoy modern conveniences while living off the grid. Whether you are looking for a private hunting camp, recreational basecamp, or peaceful mountain escape, this property delivers an unmatched Northern New Mexico experience. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the included membership to a 400-acre recreational easement area along with endless opportunities for hiking, biking, wildlife viewing, and nearby fishing. The property has also received a landowner hunting tag in the past, though future owners would need to apply through New Mexico Game and Fish for consideration. A hunting blind is already in place, making this a ready-to-enjoy setup for hunters and outdoor adventurers alike. Located just a short drive from Chama, New Mexico, and approximately one hour and a half from Pagosa Springs, Colorado, this property provides both privacy and convenient access to dining, shopping, hot springs, and year-round recreation. If you have been searching for stunning views, usable acreage, and the ultimate off-grid mountain lifestyle, this rare Brazos Canyon property is ready to impress.
