69 & 70 Old Stage Rd., Pie Town, NM 87827 - Catron County

Containing 33.95 acres, this property is located west of Pie Town with great views of the

surrounding mountains. Selected for its great location known for dark skies and astronomical viewing, the professionally designed observatory was constructed in 2005. The 484 sq. ft. building is frame built with stucco siding and sits on a concrete pad. It is fully wired with network jacks and is built on a steel pier with a telescope mount. The foundation for the pier is filled with sand so that there are no vibrations. Custom steel work allows the dome to spin 360 degrees for the best possible night sky viewing. Internet is provided via high speed DSL. Located on the lot next to the observatory is a 60 mobile home with 2 bed/1bath and a real nice uncovered deck. A 500 gallon propane tank feeds to a auxiliary wall heater and a tankless hot water heater. There is also the capability to add a wood stove. There is electricity to the home and a complete RV setup with 30 cement pad. The power than feeds underground to the observatory. Water is obtained by hauling from the nearby community well to a 1,500 gallon underground water storage. This is all set up for the not only the avid star gazer, but also is a great place to live that is smog and stress free and where you are more likely to see elk and deer in your backyard than your next door neighbor. Buyers have the option of also buying just one lot for $80,000.
