The property features a 20,000 square-foot main house, several guest houses, a private lake, a horse riding ring, equestrian trails, stables, tennis courts and much more. They designed the property in a Santa Fe style after falling in love with actor Gene Hackman’s Santa Fe home. They actually hired Hackman’s Santa Fe architect for the project which took years to kick off due to environmental concerns and permit restrictions.
