Actor and possible 2010 gubernatorial candidate Val Kilmer is putting his entire 6,000-acre ranch up for sale, according to the Wall Street Journal. The ranch includes a 5,600 square foot, four bedroom home, two guest houses, miles of trout fishing and plenty of wilderness.
And all of this could be yours if you have $33 million burning a hole in your pocket.
The massive ranch is about 25 miles southeast of Santa Fe.
The price has dropped over the years as the economy has worsened. The Wall Street Journal follows the different prices:
In January Mr. Kilmer offered those houses on a 1,000-acre parcel for $9 million, down from $12 million a few months earlier. John Watson, president and CEO of ranch broker Orvis/Cushman & Wakefield, has the listing.
Kilmer, according to the Wall Street Journal, said he is listing the entire thing so that “someone who has the time and the finances” can take care of the property properly
Kilmer, of course, has been floating the possibility of running for New Mexico governor in the Democratic primary against already announced candidate, Lt. Gov. Diane Denish. I don’t know if Kilmer has any other property in New Mexico, or if so, where it is located. Kilmer has lived part-time in New Mexico for more than 20 years, and the Wall Street Journal says the actor assembled the ranch about 13 years ago.
