Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Chama, New Mexico

Enter your own private enchanted forest when you drive into the Old Cañones Creek Ranch near Chama, New Mexico. Four trout-filled ponds, two creeks, and exquisite landscaping surround the custom, adobe, Northern New Mexico-style main home and guest home.

No details were missed in the design and decor of these homes. Each is thoughtfully sited on grounds that include extensive stonework and artistic touches such as the placement of burned tree skeletons, a large free-hung dinner bell, and a cozy, custom stone-and-log gazebo perfect for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails.

Three completely renovated, historic, one-room log cabins are aesthetically located on the ranch grounds. Rounding out the improvements are the original partially renovated ranch guest lodge, a large maintenance barn, and an equipment shelter.

The 44.75± acre ranch is mostly forested with a large central meadow. The ranch supports a wide variety of wildlife and is frequently visited by elk and mule deer, making it eligible for the New Mexico Game and Fish (NMGF) Elk-Plus program, which awards hunting vouchers to ranches in Primary Game Management Units. The owners have never entered the ranch in this program and instead have a membership in a nearby 2,400± acre hunt club.

The ranch is minutes from the iconic Northern New Mexico towns of Chama and Tierra Amarilla, a little over an hour to Pagosa Springs, Colorado, and an hour and a half to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Located at an ideal elevation of 7,800± feet, the Old Cañones Creek Ranch comes furnished and equipped for an easy move-in and enjoyable experience.
