Land Description
Scenic Estancia Valley farm that exhibits pride of ownership and great planning. This farm with 260 acres irrigated is a model for production and ease of operation. Producing 21,000 bales per cutting in recent years, this farm is a money maker in a beautiful high valley area. This northern Estancia Valley farm gets 3 cuttings per year or approximately 63,000 bales per year.
The two irrigation wells on this farm produce approximately 1200 and 1500 gallons per minute of water at 20 psi. This ample supply of groundwater is more than enough water for any crop grown in this area. The wells are equipped with submersible pumps and a Pierce, Reinke and Valley Center Pivots administer water for a trouble free and efficient delivery.
Water rights on this farm are grandfathered water rights, which are early established water rights that will not be taken away.
The circles have a blend of Alfalfa and Orchard Grass which is a highly desirable mix for quality horse hay.
Investing a lifetime improving this farm, the owners have taken no short cuts to assure that this farm is a top producer in this area and the state.
The north end of the Estancia Valley is known to have excellent soils and abundant groundwater that has not been depleted. Unlike many areas in the state that are facing a rapidly depleting groundwater situation, this area remains a strong groundwater source.
A plentiful water supply and highly productive soil are not the only desirable assets that this farm has to offer. The owners home is a beautiful 4 bedroom 3 1/2 bath, 5,000 square foot, home that is being offered with the sale of the farm also. There is a large shop and hay barns included.
An additional 2 bedroom 1 1/2 bath 1400 square foot employee or guest home with a big barn is also offered with the sale in another location on the farm. Water supply for the two homes is furnished by two domestic wells, each equipped with submersible pumps, allowing each home to have its own water supply.
Due to rapid growth in Albuquerque and Santa Fe, this area is very desirable for development opportunities. It is in close proximity to these cities and is just far enough away to provide a nice get away farm. First and most important, this farm is a highly productive and profitable business that needs to be seen. If you are looking for a great money maker with a proven production history and a location you just can't beat, this is the one you need to see.
