This 5-acre property in Tijeras, located within Bernalillo County, offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and proximity to the city. Situated along Forest Rd, the land is characterized by gently rolling terrain with a mix of pine trees, natural vegetation, and open clearings, giving you multiple options for building while maintaining a sense of seclusion. Parcels of this size in this area are highly desirable, especially for buyers looking to escape the city without being too far removed from it.
The surrounding East Mountains region is known for its cooler temperatures, wooded landscapes, and peaceful environment—a sharp contrast to the desert valley below. You’re only about 20–25 minutes from Albuquerque, making commuting or accessing major amenities easy, while still enjoying a mountain lifestyle. Nearby outdoor attractions include the Cibola National Forest, offering hiking, wildlife, and endless exploration right in your backyard. For weekend trips, Santa Fe is roughly one hour away, known for its art scene, culture, and dining.
What makes this property especially appealing is the long-term value of land in the East Mountains corridor. As Albuquerque continues to grow, areas like Tijeras are seeing increased interest from buyers who want more land, privacy, and a connection to nature. Zoning in this part of Bernalillo County is typically rural residential, allowing for site-built homes, cabins, and in some cases manufactured homes, though buyers should confirm exact use, utilities, and building requirements with the county. Properties here may require well and septic installation, which is common for this type of mountain setting.
Owning this land is about more than just acreage—it’s about space, quiet, and a different pace of life. Imagine waking up surrounded by trees, breathing in fresh mountain air, and having the freedom to build something that truly feels like your own. Whether you’re planning a full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or a long-term investment, this property offers a chance to own a piece of New Mexico where nature, privacy, and accessibility come together.
