27 Homestead Lane

The Property

The home and the land

27 Homestead Lane is a custom territorial style home built in 1987, offering 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,917 square feet of living space on 4.37 acres in Placitas, New Mexico. Territorial architecture is one of New Mexico's signature styles, blending adobe-inspired massing with clean lines and brick coping, and this home is a fine example of the form.

Living spaces

The heart of the home is a large open living area with abundant natural light and a custom wood burning fireplace. Saltillo tile floors run through the home, giving it the warm, earthy character that New Mexico interiors are known for. A large library and media room offers a quiet retreat for reading, films, or music, while additional office space supports working from home or dedicated hobby use.

The remodeled kitchen

The kitchen was fully remodeled with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and top-tier appliances, including a professional Wolf range and oven. It is a kitchen designed for people who actually cook, with the workspace and equipment to handle everything from a weeknight dinner to a holiday gathering.

Outdoor living

Outside, a spacious tiled patio extends the living space into the high-desert air. A built-in grill and an outdoor kiva fireplace make the patio usable through the seasons, whether for summer dinners or cool evenings under exceptionally dark skies. The views are a defining feature of the property, with vistas from both the front and the back of the home.

Recent upgrades

  • New roof
  • Fresh stucco on the exterior
  • Updated septic system

These recent improvements addressed the major systems of the home, complementing the earlier full kitchen remodel.

The 4.37 acre parcel offers privacy, room for horses, and easy access to the Cibola National Forest and surrounding open space. For details on the equestrian facilities, see the horse property features page; for the wider setting, see the page on living in Placitas.
