Red Valley Ranch Mesa Prieta Rd, Youngsville, NM 87064

Red Valley Ranch spans 500 acres of vivid red rock formations, sculpted hoodoos, and layered sandstone that tell the story of northern New Mexico’s geologic past. The property has a well and public electricity, making it ready for thoughtful development. A conservation easement ensures the land remains intact, and it adjoins other large, non-dividable tracts that protect long-term privacy and open views. Several building areas lend themselves to distinctive architecture and equestrian use, with open ground perfect for riding. The property borders over 50,000 acres of the Rio Chama River Canyon Wilderness and connects to New Mexico State Lands and the Santa Fe National Forest, offering seamless access to hiking, horseback riding, and exploring. From the top of nearby Mesa Alta, you’ll take in panoramic views of Cerro Pedernal, the Rio Puerco, Ghost Ranch, and Abiquiu Lake—scenery that has drawn artists and explorers for generations. Spring and summer monsoons bring the high desert to life, with wildflowers like Indian paintbrush, sego lily, and others blooming across the landscape. Elk, deer, and other wildlife regularly move through this untamed terrain, crossing in from the surrounding wilderness. Red Valley Ranch offers a rare balance of privacy, access, and connection to the land.
