Superior Access: Located just south of Van Horn and right off Green River Road. With a county road serving the subdivision, you have reliable access to your 40-acre spread without the "landlocked" worries of other desert parcels.

Level & Buildable: The land is nice and level, providing an easy "blank canvas" for building a ranch house, parking multiple RVs, or setting up agricultural structures.

Ultimate Freedom: NO RESTRICTIONS. Hudspeth County offers the ultimate liberty. Mobile homes, modulars, tiny houses, and long-term RV camping are all 100% permitted.

Location & Lifestyle

The View: Experience stunning, unobstructed views of the West Texas mountain ranges. Enjoy the legendary "International Dark Skies" with stargazing that is second to none.

Proximity: Strategically located south of Van Horn, giving you a convenient home base for fuel, groceries, and supplies while remaining completely private on your 40-acre estate.
