La Mesita Ranch contains 139 acres, including 45.92 irrigated acres. Abundant and enormously valuable water rights support lush green pastures, hayfields, gardens, a greenhouse and three ponds. Set in the cool shade of ancient cottonwood trees, the elegant but comfortable main residence is the centerpiece of this extraordinary estate. Originally designed by celebrated architect John Gaw Meem, the 7,655 square foot adobe structure has been tastefully renovated and modernized, but retains its original character. Two guesthouses and a detached four-car garage flank the main residence, while the pool, cabana and tennis court are conveniently located a few steps away. Three more residences provide ample quarters for guests and staff. The equestrian trainer’s residence features an open floor plan, cathedral ceilings, flagstone floors and a television system for remote monitoring of the main barn. Tucked away near the rear entrance are a newly renovated two-bedroom gatehouse and a cozy log cabin.
