Gaze over distant plains and stunning sunsets, enjoy nourishing fresh air and sweet spring water, economy of living and room to roam - this land is not just a place, it’s a feeling. Freedom, tranquility, security, privacy, private home or co-housing opportunity - this place has it all! In an area rich with history, this very unique property lies at about 7500 feet elevation in the Sacramento Mountains, near High Rolls NM. It has been occupied by one family for many years but it is also an unparalleled community living opportunity. And with existing income potential it could be run as a Retreat Centre, B&B - whatever you can dream! One side of the property is flanked by Westside Road which is maintained by the US Forest Service. Immediately across that road we have another 16 undeveloped acres which we may consider selling as a separate parcel. The land faces the Tularosa Basin. White Sands and the San Andres mountains are actually visible from here – the views are amazing! The nearest neighbors are roughly 9 miles away. High Rolls is about 20 minutes down the road, and Alamogordo and Cloudcroft are about 45 minutes away. Rising up behind this unique homestead is the rim of the Sacramento Mountains some 1500' higher in elevation. The surrounding wilderness is populated by deer, elk, turkey, bear, fox - all manner of wild animals and birds. It is designated Unit 34, and it's possible to get a land owner elk permit. From hardy Ponderosa Pine and craggy Alligator Juniper to endangered plants such as the Sacramento Mountain Thistle, this fascinating terrain will never cease to inspire! Numerous marked hiking trails are in the surrounding territory and several observatories are within easy driving distance. The night skies here are magnificent! This large complex consists of three geodesic domes that have been connected to create one sprawling 7300 sq ft home with 3 distinct living spaces. The 45' diameter dome contains 4 large bedrooms, two of which are lofts. The huge living room has a floor to ceiling height of 27' with numerous skylights giving this part of the house a unique sense of light and dimension. The 40' diameter dome contains the largest of the kitchens, plus a dining room which houses a custom made cherry table to seat 12. There are also 2 large loft bedrooms. The floor to ceiling height in this dome is 24'. The smallest dome is 35' diameter and is a fully functional single family home with kitchen, dining and living area on the main floor, plus a loft with a bedroom, study and bathroom with jacuzzi tub. Above the loft is a cupola which is a fantastic art studio as well as offering amazing 360 degree views. The floor to ceiling height of this dome is 21' for a spacious, open atmosphere. There is a well, but the mountain spring water source has been supplying the property for 120 years. Water rights allow for domestic and agricultural use, and the permit has been about $80 per year. It is very pure and healthy alkaline water. The extensive septic system was designed to handle large groups. Electricity comes through the local co-operative, but could be sold back if you wanted to go off grid but keep the line. Property is sold ‘As Is’ at 775,000 with all existing household goods, including but not restricted to: a custom made cherry dining table to seat 12, + 2 other dining tables, a dozen twin beds/bedding (all good condition), chairs, sofas, dressers, antique furniture, appliances, wood/pellet/gas stoves, large built in Cannon gun safe, gym equipment, assorted household goods, kitchen items, ornaments… You can move in tomorrow!
