Description

Built in the 1880s along the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe line, this building first served as the Santa Fe Railroad Station and, after 1908, housed railroad crews in Lamy. In 1974, it was lifted from its foundation and moved to 5.93 acres in the Galisteo Basin, where it was given a second act. The setting cannot be manufactured. Neighbors are barely visible. Cerro Pelon Ranch runs 15,000+ acres to the south and west; conservation easements hold sixteen acres to the north; Singleton Ranch stretches ten thousand more east. Views run a full 360 degrees from every room. This property is outside the Village of Galisteo, answering only to County code. Taken to its bones in 2019: original redwood framing, wood floors, and beams stayed; wiring, plumbing, well, and septic were replaced. Corrugated Galvalume wraps the original redwood siding, and the original Gothic Arch tile roof remains overhead. Industrial farmhouse vibes give this home a comfortable but contemporary feel. The main house is 2,311 sq ft on one level, with two bedrooms and 1 full and 1 three-quarter bath; the flex space is being used as an office. A patio greets you on the east; the west portal is where the sunsets happen. A 2023–24 expansion added a dressing room and a den off the primary that is stubbed for gas if you want to add a fireplace. The detached 880 sq ft guest house, dubbed the View Shed, is one bedroom, one three-quarter bath, with westward views. The final building is 1,749 sq ft of heated space, featuring a gallery below with two studios above. This building also has insulated art storage, a work sink, small gym space, an oversized garage, and an entertaining courtyard that can be wired for string lights. There is also a 2nd-floor, west-facing view deck. This home is on a private well with cistern backup. Most spaces are heated and cooled by ductless mini-splits; there are underground utilities, a new septic with additional space if needed, 2 large exterior storage areas, and a 2024 buried propane tank. Horses allowed.
