Val Kilmer Asks $33 Million for New Mexico Ranch
After failing to sell parcels of his 6,000-acre Pecos River ranch in New Mexico, actor Val Kilmer has now listed the entire estate for $33 million. The 49-year-old star, who recently announced that he may run for governor of New Mexico next year, says he's listing the property so that "someone who has the time and the finances" can maintain and preserve it, the Wall St. Journal reports. Back in 2006 my colleague Deirdre Woollard reported that Kilmer was offering an 1,800 acre parcel for $18 million.
The ranch, which features six miles of trout fishing, canyons, pine forests, a stable and a rock quarry, is about 25 miles southeast of Santa Fe. The main house is a 5,600-sq.-ft. log and stucco contemporary with four bedrooms. There are also two one bedroom guest houses and a two bedroom foreman's house. The star of The Doors and Batman Forever assembled the impressive property, which remains largely unspoiled, about 13 years ago.

Why would he sell such a thing if he plans to stay in NM? Does he need the money to run for office?

Needing the money for the race is my guess, as well.

I have seen this spread and it is one of the best pieces of property I have ever seen in the entire state of new mexico, years ago the house was featured in Architectural Digest, this man has taste, if it were a bit cheaper I would take it off his hands, It is truly a diamond in the desert.
