Silver City, New Mexico

Rare Historic Gem in the Heart of Silver City – Built in 1870: This unique walled compound features a ~3,000 SF adobe home and 1,600SF adobe studio/barn on nearly an acre bordering Boston Hill. Steeped in history, the home showcases original wood floors, plaster walls, a vintage stone fireplace, and New Mexico Territorial-style design. Legend says Geronimo was once held captive here before a daring escape. Inside: 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 3 living areas, 2 kitchens, and a meditation room with kiva fireplace. Outdoor spaces include a covered porch, landscaped courtyard, and pond-side patio—ideal for entertaining. The updated barn includes a new bathroom and laundry, perfect for studio, or workshop. A portion is a successful Airbnb, offering income potential or separate living quarters. Electric gate, off-street parking, and room to add a garage. Close to downtown and Western NM University, this is more than a home—it’s a rare piece of New Mexico’s living history.
