Description

This 624-acre property in Presidio County is a rare find with 7,500′ of Rio Grande frontage near legendary Marfa, Texas! YES!… this property directly borders Mexico!

The land has not been developed, so it is a blank slate ready for anything you can imagine. Even though this land is remote, it has frontage on paved Highway 170.

This property is only 3215 FEET from the Las Palomas Wildlife Management Area – Ocotillo Unit.

Hot Springs Airport (3TE4) with a 2,500′ gravel runway is 2 miles to the southeast.

Presidio, Texas is only 42 miles to the southeast and has most day-to-day supplies and conveniences.

Marfa, a quirky town unlike any other, is only 56 miles away, and it is a surprising haven for artists and writers. You can spend an entire day getting lost in art galleries and random art installations. The Chinati Foundation museum is located in an abandoned army base on 340 acres and houses large-scale contemporary pieces by founder Donald Judd and other artists. Downtown Marfa has 22 sculptures by John Chamberlin, and your trip to the area is not complete until you have made the drive to Prada Marfa on US Highway 90. Paranormal enthusiasts flock here to see the Marfa Lights. These glowing orbs appear in the desert outside town and move in random directions. No one has ever been able to explain them.

The closest large city to this property is El Paso, which is 250 miles away. This is where you will find all of the big box stores, an international airport, concerts, museums, and college sports at the University of Texas at El Paso.

We purchased this property with new surveys, including a subdivision option, and a title opinion. The 624 acres can be divided or sold separately into two tracts. The 331 acres on the southwest side of Highway 170 can be purchased for $145,640, while the 293-acre tract on the northeast side can be purchased for $128,920.

HUNTING: Hunting opportunities abound in the area, and this property would be a great home base. Outfitters in this region stay busy chasing giant mule deer, elk, aoudad rams, javelinas, and hogs as well as multiple species of quail. 🦌
