Mesa Springs Ranch Ribera, NM 87560

Mesa Springs Ranch is 4,488± acres of land at the base of historic Glorieta Mesa, only 45 minutes from historic Santa Fe. A beautifully remodeled 7,435 square foot custom adobe hacienda blends perfectly with its environment and is the jewel of the property. One of the largest contiguous tracts in the area, the ranch has 3,888± deeded and 600± Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lease acres. It borders Santa Fe National Forest for six miles along its western edge. The heart of this beautiful ranch are the springs in Manzanares Canyon that provide much-needed water for wildlife. Elk and deer frequent this property, along with bears, coyotes, foxes, and bobcats. Eagles and hawks use the Mesa Edge to search for prey.

The topography consists of meadows and hills covered by pinon and juniper trees. Large ponderosas are found in the higher elevations approaching the Mesa. The grama grass rangeland has been grazed only sparingly and is in excellent condition. Rugged canyons cross through the property, dotted by numerous ruins of old homesteads and Native American artifacts—an indicator of the extensive human history on this ranch. The elevation ranges from 6,100 feet to 7,200 feet. Horse enthusiasts will appreciate the trails from the property that connect directly to Glorieta Mesa within the Santa Fe National Forest.

The large adobe hacienda provides an inviting place to relax with friends and family in a private and spectacular setting. The adobe home consists of four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. A lovely chef’s kitchen and four kiva fireplaces contribute to the charming atmosphere. In addition to the generous living spaces, the home offers a game room, sunroom/greenhouse, and office.

The hacienda amenities include radiant floor heat, refrigerated air, flagstone and tile floors, plaster walls, and viga and latilla ceilings, offering New Mexico authenticity.
