Property Description

In the Land of Enchantment, the Pecos River Valley is where the enchantment seems to gather and deepen, lingering in the river, the cottonwoods, and the hush of the mountains, slowing time and enriching the present. It is in the heart of this cherished valley, this exceptional 27-acre riverfront property is a true rarity. Nearly 1, 000 feet of rushing river flow between open fields of bucolic grassland. A private road sneaks off the highway, gently descending towards and across the river over a private bridge to what is simply one of the most special building sites in New Mexico: a flat and secluded canvas, tucked between the Pecos River and majestic limestone cliffs. It’s a site worthy of great architectural design and the foundation of a generational retreat. Spend the summers fly fishing your own secret river pool and hiking directly into hundreds of thousands of acres of National Forest and Wilderness; or ride horses and raise cattle amongst the tall grass and shade of the riparian trees. There is a 3-bedroom, 2 bathroom home and a 2-car garage / storage barn already on the property, providing an easy starting point for the next owner to enjoy the land while they build their vision of the future. Only 30 minutes from Santa Fe on paved roads, there’s easy access to the property’s tranquil seclusion. Landholdings like this rarely become available in the Pecos, and after being passed down through the generations of one family, this river refuge is ready for its next legacy.
