Property Description

Palomino Pines Ranch – 400 Acres of Mountain Luxury, Set at over 8,000 feet in the Southern Rockies, Palomino Pines Ranch spans 400 private acres of rolling meadows, pine forest, and sweeping 360-degree mountain views, offering a rare combination of privacy, beauty, and luxury. This is a true legacy mountain estate designed for those who want space, serenity, and the freedom of the Western lifestyle. The custom-built main residence features approximately 3,400 square feet of refined mountain living, highlighted by riverbed stone accents, soaring wood beams, antlered lighting, and rich chestnut floors. A gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless-steel appliances flows into warm, inviting living areas and outdoor patios perfect for entertaining and enjoying the endless views. A large heated garage and workshop provides space for vehicles and recreational equipment and includes additional heated living quarters ideal for guests, caretakers, or a private office. There is also approximately 1,000 square feet of additional living space in a separate garage for flexible use. For equestrian enthusiasts, the property includes a 13,000-square-foot heated indoor riding arena with nine stalls and heated living quarters, an Olympic-style outdoor arena, additional outdoor stables, expansive riding areas, and multiple steel-fenced pastures — all designed for year-round enjoyment in total privacy. The estate also features ponds, water tanks, RV hookups, and a private pet retreat with fencing, shelter, and run space. Built as a true forever home, no expense was spared in creating a ranch that balances luxury, function, and natural beauty. With 330 acres recently added, bringing the total to 400 acres, Palomino Pines Ranch offers an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Northern New Mexico’s most private and impressive mountain estates.
