101 And 102 Meadow Lane - Sky Fire Ranch, Mimbres, NM 88049

Property Description

Set against the backdrop of the legendary Gila Wilderness and surrounded on three sides by the Gila National Forest, Sky Fire Ranch is one of the most extraordinary private estates in the American Southwest. Encompassing approximately 60 acres across three separately deeded parcels, this remarkable property offers a rare combination of luxury, privacy, self-sufficiency, and direct access to one of the nation's most pristine wilderness landscapes. Located just 45 minutes from Silver City at an elevation of approximately 6,556 feet, the ranch is nestled among towering ponderosa pines, native juniper, and sweeping mountain vistas. Five private gates open directly into the national forest, providing immediate access to hundreds of miles of hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, wildlife viewing, and outdoor recreation. The approximately 3,400-square-foot main residence was extensively renovated in 2023 and blends modern comfort with timeless mountain elegance. The home features three bedrooms, two baths, a dedicated office, laundry room, walk-in pantry, and attached oversized two-car garage. High-end finishes include a chef's kitchen equipped with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, a standing-seam metal roof, updated stucco exterior, new HVAC systems, solar power, water heaters, pressure tank, and a Generac backup generator installed in 2024. Central heating and air conditioning provide year-round comfort. Complementing the main residence is an impressive collection of thoughtfully designed structures and creative spaces. The beautifully restored approximately 1,800-square-foot stone barn includes a private one-bedroom apartment, expansive studio space with wood stove and furnace, and a darkroom that could easily be converted into a full kitchen. A separate septic system provides flexibility for guest, caretaker, rental, or creative uses. Additional improvements include a newly constructed 1,000-square-foot guest house completed in 2024 with a generous covered porch, a dedicated 385-square-foot wellness studio ideal for yoga, massage, fitness, or meditation, and a 1,000-square-foot pottery studio with adjacent billiard room and speakeasy. Tucked away on one of the property's private 20-acre parcels, a charming and secluded cabin offers an ideal retreat for guests, caretakers, artists, or writers seeking complete privacy. The grounds have been carefully curated to create a truly exceptional mountain sanctuary. A productive garden features twelve raised planting beds and an orchard with apple, pear, peach, cherry, and apricot trees. At the heart of the landscape lies an extraordinary Zen garden featuring Japanese maples, bamboo, ginkgo trees, ornamental grasses, and contemplative gathering spaces that blend seamlessly with the surrounding forest. Water resources are abundant, with three wells serving the property, including one with secured commercial water rights that support extensive irrigation and future possibilities. Whether envisioned as a private family compound, luxury retreat, creative residency, wellness destination, equestrian property, or legacy estate, Sky Fire Ranch offers a level of privacy, natural beauty, and infrastructure rarely found in the Southwest. A place where refined living and wilderness adventure exist in perfect balance, this is truly one of the premier properties in New Mexico.
