Want to get away from it all and off the grid? 5+ acres in New Mexico

Named for the mythical seven cities of Cibola, Cibola County is the newest county in New Mexico as it was only created in 1981 out of what was a much larger county (Valencia) that has since been made into smaller counties. The county seat of Cibola County is Grant, New Mexico. This 5 plus acre lot is near Camino De Tierra, Ramah, home to the Ramah Navajo Indian Nation. The Zuni Reservation also calls the area home close by.

You’ll have access to numerous national protected areas in this neck of the woods including the Cibola National Forest, El Malpais National Monument and Conservation Area, and El Morro National Monument. When not exploring all the area has to offer you can take in the endless blue skies and mountain views from your very own homestead.

This is a getaway ripe to make your own. It’s off the beaten path and off the grid with power by solar, wind, or generator. Head into Albuquerque and Santa Fe to get major shopping done and see the sights. For those that like to try their luck, New Mexico has many casino destinations. No need to head to Vegas (although it’s only about 500 miles away!), you can just head to Albuquerque for big city gambling.

New Mexico is known for its natural wonders so there is plenty for you to explore.But if outdoor adventures are not your cup of tea, then check out the state’s many art museums, festivals, spas, restaurants, and more. Have you heard of Pie Town? Yes, it’s an actual place where you can visit the Pioneer for some downright delicious homemade pies!

Cibola county is actually known for its numerous Uranium mines that are plentiful in the area.There is currently no county zoning, so you can set up camp (or RV) on your lot as long as you like while you dream up what you want to build (just don’t dump any waste on the lot). If you do bring a mobile home, house trailer, or camp trailer on the property, the subdivision requires that it must be covered within 2 years so as not to distract from the natural surroundings.Contact the county QCC director before building anything, and make sure your permits are on the up and up.
