Near the village of Pilar, nestled in the deep canyon and running along the famed Rio Grande, sits this unique property for sale. Only 25 minutes south of Taos and very close to the Espanola Valley, this property features river frontage, a pond and a spring that runs through it.

The formation is composed of light-colored, pink to white to green, feldspathic, quartz-muscovite and quartz-eye schists. There are also many wonderful recorded facts related to the Glen Woody suspended bridge (a renowned historical landmark) and the property itself, known in the olden times as a gathering place for colorful characters of the cowboy era.

Enter at your own risk.
