This studio space is a little piece of heaven with picturesque views and just enough of a rural feel to set your heart and mind at ease. Complete with fast, reliable wifi, air conditioning and heating, a King-sized bed and a style that perfectly blends ranch and modern vibes...you'll never want to leave. We can't wait to host you in this little oasis in the desert! This studio is attached to our home, but has it's own private entrance, outdoor space and parking area. Please be sure to read the entire listing before booking! We purchased this ranch from a family that's been in this valley for generations. Our neighbors are members of that family and we deeply cherish the history and culture all around us. The home is roughly 4400 square feet. Our family lives in the main part of the home, which is completely distinct from the studio. We have three pups that we love, who you will most certainly see and hear during your stay. There is fencing in place to keep them from entering your private area, but they will certainly be seen running free on the 11 fenced acres that surround our home. We own a total of 36 acres, so the solitude and privacy you'll find here are so special and unique. This studio is unique because it has air conditioning and heating. Most homes (including our part of this home) do not have either. This studio is a rare find in that regard and we're so excited to share it! Just imagine waking up from a dreamy night of cozy sleep to stunning views and rays of sunlight hitting the Manzano Mountains to the west and the vast expanse of the Estancia Valley to the east. Not to mention the overwhelming peace you’ll feel in the quiet and rest the ranch itself provides. The studio has been professionally designed with YOU in mind. Each detail is specifically crafted to create a cozy hideaway just 45 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Albuquerque. Helix mattresses, luxurious linens, plush towels and simple decor touches combine to provide the escape your soul is longing for! There are limitless hiking options in the area. Within a short driving distance, you’ll find trailheads to access the Cibola National Forest. To the west, you’ll find excellent adventure in the Manzano Mountains and just 30-45 minutes to the north you can explore all the Sandia Mountains have to offer. In the wintertime, you’ll find excellent skiing and snow play at the Sandia Peak. Summertime offers horseback hiding, hiking, bike riding…all the things! Don’t forget to visit Salinas Pueblo Mission National Monument, which is just 30 minutes south of our ranch! So much stunning history and heritage exists within driving distance in every direction. Mountainair is a fun little town to visit and is about 30 minutes south of the ranch. There’s a quaint historic hotel there with a restaurant and art gallery. Estancia is a small town about 15 minutes from the ranch and is where you’ll find the closest gas station, convenience store and restaurants. Stop in at Opel’s Ice Cream while you’re there! They have the best ice cream, muffins and bagel sandwiches in Torrance County! If it’s cold outside, snuggle up in a cozy blanket and crank up the heater...make something hot and sweet to sip on as you watch the weather show off through the french doors and window that provide a spectacular view of the rolling valley to the south of the studio. In the summertime, turn the cool air on or open the window to enjoy the fresh mountain breeze. Better yet, get outside and explore the ranch and beyond! There’s so much to take in! Fire up the outdoor grill or make use of the kitchen for dinner! You’ll find all the tools you need in the kitchen and grill area to make a fabulous meal. At the close of a day full of memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime, snuggle up on your own private patio with a view and take in the starry expanse. It’s breathtaking. Relax and dream up plans for an incredible day tomorrow. This whole experience is perfect for couples seeking restful relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Maybe you are looking for a private, romantic adventure to celebrate a milestone in your life or the life of someone you love? A honeymoon, a birthday, graduation or retirement? Are you drawn to a quiet retreat for reading, writing, hiking, exploring and just simply being still? Or maybe you’re seeking solitude, a unique escape to unplug and feel grounded in the soul nourishment and peace that nature so faithfully provides? You’ve found it. We’ll have the studio ready for you. Put NO.10 RANCH and this serene studio at the very top of your bucket list and make the kind of memories that will be cherished for generations to come.
