Two Acres, a Shop, and Room for the Goats
The manufactured home was never the hard part. The hard part was finding a lot you could own that had room for the shop, a run for a couple of animals, and power close enough not to bankrupt the hookup. An hour east of Albuquerque, this is that lot, twice.
Two platted lots on one deed, two acres of open high plains with dirt road along two sides, so the truck gets to wherever the home goes. Set the house on one lot and the shop on the other, run a fence for the goats or a horse (the county allows animals, within limits), and put the porch toward the Manzanos across the valley. The nearest power pole is 800 feet off, which puts a grid tie within reach instead of within dreams.
You're just south of Interstate 40 near Moriarty, an hour from Albuquerque and about the same from Santa Fe. The Estancia Valley was pinto bean country for the first half of the last century, enough that Moriarty still throws a Pinto Bean Fiesta every fall, and the same flat, open ground that grew beans is what makes a homesite easy here.
The trade is the county's line on campers: no living in an RV, even while you build, so the plan has to be a house from the start (which is a discipline, but the kind that ends with a house).
Two acres is not a ranch. It's the exact amount of ground where nobody tells you where to park the trailer.
