Authentic 1800s western town or movie set? This 58-acre New Mexico ranch can be yours
A nifty property that looks like something straight out of a Quentin Tarantino movie has graced the Catron County market in New Mexico: a 58-acre western town movie ranch can be yours for $1.6 million.
“The goal of the Town of Gabriella, is to preserve the American old west history,” the listing on Sotheby International Realty says. “Accommodations include: a hotel and log cabin, dance hall and saloon, billiard hall, old-time photography studio (camera equipment not included), old-time barber shop (including an antique barber chair), old-time stagecoach.”
The photos of the town, which primary use is entertainment, are nothing short of spectacular and show an array of buildings you would see in almost any Clint Eastwood old western.
“The Town of Gabriella is unique to other western film locations in New Mexico, because it offers more than just the appearance of an 1800’s town,” the listing describes.
“There is an emphasis on the exterior framing and staging of old buildings. Additionally, interior authenticity throughout many of the buildings was done with great attention to detail.”

Catron County has a population of 3,526 and is 173 miles southwest of Albuquerque. A fun fact about the county: It was the home of the cowboy-turned-outlaw Tom Ketchum, also known as “Black Jack,” which the listing mentions.
