Tom Ford has just recently put his New Mexico ranch on the market known as Cerro Pelon, making it the perfect estate for someone that likes the wild west. Cerro Pelon has horses roaming about the fields, wildflowers blooming in the ever so lovely climate, and a sole windmill watching over a blurry purple mountain setting. The tranquil ranch sounds like it comes straight out of a movie, which it has on multiple occasions. Out of the many films that Cerro Pelon has been seen in, the most famous includes Silverado, 3:10 to Yuma, and Cowboys & Aliens. The reason the movies were filmed in this particular area was because the onsite set was populated by Wild West styled buildings, which made it the ideal locale for western films.
The ranch boasts a total of 20,662 acres and features an eight stall horse barn, indoor and outdoor riding zones, and an additional living area for staff/ranch hands. The main house was designed by the famed Japanese architect Tadao Ando, who is a minimalist that devised a glass walled shrine hanging over a reflecting pool. In addition, he added an airstrip and hangar to use the large scale area of the property to the fullest Cerro Pelon had to offer. The ranch is located only a good thirty-minutes away from Santa Fe and despite Cerro Pelon’s location the ranch is surprisingly ultra modern.
“If you spend time on our ranch or in the American West or anywhere in nature, all of a sudden, all the things you worry about all the time fade away,” Tom Ford once said. “That’s why one of the greatest problems with where we are culturally at this time is that we’ve all lost touch with the earth and that which is really important in the world.” Take these wise words to heart, as spending quality time with friends or loved ones out in the glory of nature will give you happiness beyond anything else and precious time that is worth it’s weight in gold.
