Lush 91-Acre Ranch Near NM-CO Border | Mountain Views, Water Features & Endless Possibilities
Discover the exceptional beauty and boundless opportunity of this 91-acre ranch nestled near the New Mexico–Colorado border. With sweeping views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, this versatile property offers a harmonious mix of open grasslands, wooded areas, and multiple fenced pastures, all nourished by several natural water channels that run through the land. These flowing waterways keep the pastures green, lush, and thriving all summer long, supporting both livestock and wildlife while enhancing the ranch’s agricultural potential.
Bordering the historic Rio Costilla Cooperative Livestock Association (RCCLA), this land is steeped in a rich tradition of ranching and outdoor adventure. Whether you’re drawn to its history, its natural beauty, or its versatility, this property offers a rare blend of functionality, privacy, and possibility.
The main residence is a charming, updated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin featuring custom woodwork, quality craftsmanship, and tasteful modern finishes. A covered front porch invites you to relax and take in the surrounding mountain vistas. Just steps away, a separate 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom studio apartment provides comfortable accommodations for guests, caretakers, or extended family.
Water is a defining feature of this ranch. In addition to multiple ponds, the natural stream systems running throughout the property support grazing, attract wildlife, and help maintain the health of multiple cross-fenced pastures, ideal for rotational grazing, cattle, or horses. A spacious metal building adds further utility, with plenty of room for equipment, workshop space, or additional customization.
Located in GMU 55A, a Special Management Zone known for its high-quality elk habitat, the ranch currently qualifies for four elk permits annually, with the option to collaborate with New Mexico Game & Fish for adjustments. The combination of rich habitat, diverse terrain, and seclusion makes this a prime hunting property for the outdoor enthusiast.
The surrounding region is a recreational paradise. Taos Ski Valley is not too far away, while Angel Fire and Red River ski resorts are about two hours by car. Eagle Nest Lake and the Rio Grande Gorge offer exceptional fishing, kayaking, and boating. Nearby, the Carson National Forest and Sangre de Cristo Mountains offer miles of hiking, horseback riding, and wildlife exploration through some of the Southwest’s most scenic terrain.
For a dose of culture, shopping, and fine dining, the vibrant town of Taos is about an hour’s drive, offering renowned art galleries, museums, historic adobe landmarks, and world-class cuisine. Cross into southern Colorado and you’ll find even more adventure in Pagosa Springs and Wolf Creek Ski Area, known for their deep powder skiing and therapeutic hot springs.
With its water-fed, productive pastures, mountain views, developed infrastructure, and prime location, this 91-acre ranch is a rare find, ready to support whatever vision you have in mind. Whether you’re dreaming of a full-time mountain residence, a working cattle or horse ranch, a seasonal hunting basecamp, or a peaceful private retreat, the possibilities are truly endless.
