Jeffrey Epstein’s New Mexico ranch lands buyer after 2 years on market

After more than two years on the market and several price cuts, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime New Mexico ranch — where some of his most ghastly allegations of sexual abuse occurred — has found a buyer, The Post has learned.

“We confirm sale by the Epstein Estate of the New Mexico property known as ‘Zorro Ranch,’ with the proceeds to be used for Estate administration, including payment of creditors,” Daniel Weiner, an attorney representing Epstein’s estate, told The Post. “While details of that sale (including the purchase price and buyer) are confidential, the Estate will disclose the sale in its next quarterly accounting to be filed in the St. Thomas, USVI probate court.”

Although property records have not yet been processed with information of the new owner and price paid, the large property was last listed for sale at $18 million.

The latest asking price is a far cry from its initial ask of $27.5 million back in July of 2021.

Last month, the property entered contract.

Located in Stanley, south of Santa Fe, Epstein reportedly had plans to make the ranch a “baby-making factory,” where he would inseminate victims.

Over the years, several women came out accusing the late disgraced New York-based investor of sexually abusing them there. Though he was never charged with a crime in New Mexico, the compound has been painted as integral to his sex-trafficking operation.

Property records show Epstein purchased the ranch in 1993 from Gary King, who served as New Mexico’s 30th attorney general at the time. The purchase comprised private and leased federal lands.

After heightened allegations resurfaced against Epstein in 2019 concerning his involvement with underage girls, the state land commissioner ended the grazing deal with him.

“We are officially canceling the leases with Zorro Ranch and Cypress Inc.,” State Land Commissioner Stephanie Garcia Richard told local KRQE station at the time. “I would never sign any lease agreements or contracts with such individuals as Jeffery Epstein or any of his co-conspirators.”

Since 1993, Epstein leased two parcels of state trust land, which was part of his sprawling 10,000-acre New Mexico compound until his death in 2019.

“That’s a pretty big ranch,” Santa Fe County Assessor Gus Martinez told KRQE. “It is a remote property. The only way you can get access is really through the ranch hand, and so you can’t just really drive into that property because the gates are closed.”

Computer scientist and writer Jaron Lanier told the New York Times that he once spoke to a scientist who related how the convicted pedophile’s goal was to have 20 women at a time impregnated at the ranch.

Epstein kept security tight there, too, according to a contractor who worked on the site. “We had to be escorted in on a truck with other employees, and, once inside, we had to put little hospital booties over our feet — and it was mandated that we are escorted everywhere we went and use side entrances,” the contractor recalled. “About every three minutes someone would come down to keep an eye on us while we were working.”

According to the previous listing, the estate has a grand three-story, four-bedroom main house, and a nearby caretaker’s residence. There are additional structures, including a grass airstrip and a hangar that are also part of the grounds. Amenities include stables, a firehouse and a yurt.

“The proceeds from the sale are expected to be used for the estate’s regular administration, including its payment as necessary of taxes, creditors and claimants,” Weiner told The Post.

Neil Lyon and Darlene Streit of Sotheby’s International Realty held the listing.

Meanwhile, Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse sold for a whopping $51 million. His Palm Beach, Florida, compound, which prominently displayed a photo of Epstein kissing his alleged madame Ghislane Maxwell, sold for $18.5 million. The new owner demolished that structure and built a new property on the land.

In May, Billionaire Stephen Deckoff spent $60 million to buy Jeffrey Epstein’s two Caribbean islands — Great St. James and Little St. James.

“I’ve been proud to call the US Virgin Islands home for more than a decade and am tremendously pleased to be able to bring the area a world-class destination befitting its natural grace and beauty,” Deckoff previously told the Financial Times in a statement.

The two islands initially listed for a combined $125 million.

Epstein’s London estate was also sold for an undisclosed sum.
