220 La Para Estancia, NM 87016

This gracious 4 bed, 3 bath mountain home and turn-key equestrian facility with ample barn, hay storage, pipe-fenced arenas and grazing areas is sited on 308 acres and is bordered to the west by the Cibola National Forest. Situated in the beautiful Manzano Mountains, the heavily forested property gives a feeling of privacy and seclusion, all while being only 45 minutes from Albuquerque and about an hour and a half from Santa Fe. This property is surrounded by and steeped in New Mexico history, being located just off of the historic Salt Mission Trail, which was used as a trade route connecting 13 communities in central New Mexico. Also located on the property is one of the original homesteads in the area that was likely built in the early 1920's. With some work, the thick adobe walls and two large, open rooms of this homestead structure would make for a fantastic guesthouse, caretaker's quarters or artist studio!
