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.

Something Old. Something New. Rare Commercial Opportunity. An exceptional and singular compound in the heart of historic Galisteo, this remarkable property weaves together centuries of heritage with thoughtful modern design. Dating to the 1800s, the 3-bedroom, 2-bath double-adobe Main House once housed the beloved La Mancha Restaurant (1959–1971), where the Ortiz family’s New Mexican cuisine earned widespread acclaim. Tastefully renovated in 2012, the Main House features new brick floors, interior plaster walls, updated kitchen and baths, added skylights, while honoring the home’s original character, authenticity, and soul. Complementing the historic residence is a striking studio/gallery building originally designed by award-winning architect Beverly Spears and constructed in 1995 using Rastra construction for gallerist Linda Durham. A comprehensive 2006 remodel transformed the space into an extraordinary studio, gallery, and entertaining venue, featuring soaring 12-foot ceilings, exceptional lighting, integrated sound throughout, a home theater with cork flooring, surround sound and retractable screen, a ¾ bath, and a chef’s kitchen equipped with Wolf, Sub-Zero, Miele, and Fisher & Paykel appliances, Bob Pepper custom cabinetry, amethyst stone countertops and a generous pantry. The inviting Guest House, built in 2006, offers a warm and comfortable retreat with a living room, bedroom with fireplace, kitchen, and bath, ideal for visitors or extended stays. Commercially zoned and among the few such properties in Galisteo, this compound presents rare possibilities for a boutique B&B, restaurant, gallery, or creative retreat. Enclosed by historic adobe and stone walls and graced with fruit trees, this truly special offering invites vision, imagination, and opportunity in one of New Mexico’s most cherished villages.
