About This Lot
Discover a rare opportunity to build your dream home on one of Barranca Mesa’s most stunning canyon-edge lots. With sweeping, unobstructed views stretching across rugged mesas, forested canyonlands, and the distant mountain ranges, this homesite captures everything that makes Los Alamos so special. Morning light floods the landscape, evenings glow with vivid sunsets, and every day offers a front-row seat to nature’s drama. This generous lot sits on the rim of a spectacular canyon—a privilege few properties in town can claim. Lots in Los Alamos are already few and far between, and canyon-side parcels are even more exceptional. Here, you’ll enjoy a sense of space, privacy, and connection to the land while still being minutes from schools, trailheads, the lab, and all the conveniences of town. The site offers gentle topography near the street for practical building, while the back of the lot opens dramatically to the canyon below—perfect for designing a home with panoramic windows, an elevated deck, or outdoor spaces that take full advantage of the view. Whether you envision a modern retreat, a southwest-style sanctuary, or a cozy, light-filled home overlooking the cliffs, this lot is ready for your vision. -Key Features-
