This 8,800-square-foot lot at 291 West Parque Avenue is a tidy rectangle, 80 feet wide along Parque Avenue and 110 feet deep. The ground is flat and open, covered in low desert scrub and pale gravelly soil, with long views across the valley to mountain ridgelines on the horizon, the higher peaks dusted with snow in cooler months.
Parque Avenue is a dirt road that runs past the lot through a grid of platted streets, with Farm Lane parallel just to the south. Power lines run along the far side of the road, so electric service sits just across the street. The surroundings are mostly undeveloped desert parcels, with a scattering of homes to the west across Pahrump Valley Highway.
The lot lies on the southern edge of Pahrump in Nye County, Nevada, a broad desert valley with the Spring Mountains to the east. Highway 160 links Pahrump to Las Vegas, about 60 miles away.
