The Double V Ranch may not be New Mexico鈥檚 largest ranch, but it is the largest ranch currently on the market.

The 73,600-acre ranch, situated roughly 42 miles north of Roswell near Fort Sumner, for $35.2 million earlier this month. The brokers responsible for the listing are Brian Cook and Brannon Nash of Texas-based Phyllis Browning Co.鈥檚 Land and Ranch division. It is the company鈥檚 first listing beyond the borders of the Lone Star State.

鈥淭here is a long-standing affinity between Texas and New Mexico, with many Texans owning homes, ranches and vacation properties throughout the state,鈥� said Phyllis Browning CEO Jennifer Shemwell in a statement. 鈥淭his expansion allows us to better serve clients seeking exceptional properties across a broader regional market.鈥�

Cook declined to identify the Double V Ranch鈥檚 owner, citing their desire for privacy, but said they are based out of Texas.

Over the course of Cook鈥檚 seven-year real estate career and one year as managing director of Phyllis Browning鈥檚 Land and Ranch division, he said inquiries about land opportunities in New Mexico are common among his Texas clients, especially those in the cattle ranching and hunting industries.

鈥淭here鈥檚 a lot of interest,鈥� said Cook, who grew up visiting Santa Fe and went on hunting trips in New Mexico. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a great market, it鈥檚 beautiful country, and so getting to be a part of the first steps into the state and bring something 鈥� especially of this magnitude 鈥� has been a fun experience.鈥�

The Double V Ranch鈥檚 vast open landscapes and water features make it ideal for cattle operations, which is what the property鈥檚 current owner used it for. In a good year, the ranch can facilitate an operation of up to about 1,200 cows and calves, Cook said he learned from the property鈥檚 ranch manager.

鈥淚 don鈥檛 know exactly how many they have out there right now. Obviously, it鈥檚 a little dry, but that鈥檚 what the land can hold pretty conservatively,鈥� Cook said.

The existing cattle operation isn鈥檛 part of the ranch listing, Cook said, but the owner may be willing to continue their operation if a buyer wanted to lease the property back to them.

The ranch鈥檚 physical structures are part of the package, including a four-bedroom, five-bathroom residence, several guest cottages, livestock facilities, sheds, fencing and even a historic saloon. Several interior roads span the property, part of which also borders N.M. 20.

While New Mexico has been short of rain lately, Cook said water is still a prominent feature of the Double V Ranch. More than 25 miles of creeks and 1 mile of the Pecos River flow across the property. The ranch also has several water holes, springs and wells.

Wildlife known to frequent the property include pronghorn antelope, mule deer, quail and seasonal waterfowl birds 鈥� making a minimal level of hunting another potential use for the property.

Cook said the sheer volume of the Double V Ranch became fully apparent to him when he had the opportunity to tour it via helicopter earlier this year.

鈥淭hat was pretty remarkable to get to fly and truly see how much land and how much water was out there,鈥� Cook said.

The ranch鈥檚 availability has received significant interest since its June 4 listing. Cook said he鈥檚 been surprised to receive calls from interested parties all across the country, including Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Oregon and Florida.

鈥淥pportunities like the Double V Ranch don鈥檛 come along often,鈥� Cook said, touting the property鈥檚 rare combination of acreage, water access and diverse landscapes. The broker anticipates a quick sale but said his and the ranch owner鈥檚 ultimate goal is 鈥渢o see land be conserved and preserved.鈥�
