About 171 Silver Hills Rd
A dream property for horse lovers! This 13.5-acre high-desert sanctuary offers direct ride-out access to miles of BLM and State land, including the scenic Cerrillos Hills—no trailering needed. With wide-open spaces, panoramic views of the Sangre de Cristos and Ortiz Mountains, and absolute privacy, it’s a rider’s retreat just 20 minutes from Santa Fe. The thoughtfully designed horse facilities include a beautifully updated barn, large arena, tack room, extensive paddocks, and plenty of room to expand. Whether you're a trail enthusiast, trainer, or just want to ride out from your back door, this property delivers. At the heart of the land sits a sustainable, custom-built home crafted with green living in mind. Thick 10" cellulose-insulated walls, passive solar orientation, interior adobe, and non-toxic finishes keep the home efficient and comfortable. Solar-assisted hot water and a rainwater catchment system support a lifestyle in harmony with the environment. Recycled household water irrigates a fruit orchard via a 5,000-gallon tank, and the private well includes 3 acre-feet of water rights. Inside, warm, natural finishes and hand-crafted details create a calming space—rounded plaster walls, bamboo cabinetry, Viatera quartz countertops, clerestory windows, skylights, and cozy kiva fireplaces. A meditation nook centers the home, and the flexible third bedroom can easily serve as a studio or office. Outdoors, enjoy lily and fishponds, garden spaces, patios for al fresco living, and invisible pet fencing. This is more than a home—it’s a self-sustaining equestrian haven that offers peace, privacy, and the freedom to ride for miles. Come experience it for yourself—you may never want to leave.
