Hubbell House

In its day, it was acclaimed one of the largest, most convenient and comfortable buildings for a residence in New Mexico. The surrounding fields and irrigation system, albeit smaller then original, are reminiscent of Pajarito’s once agricultural landscape and the Gutierrez Hubbell property’s historic function as a large farm. Situated on the Camino Real, it served as a central building to the surrounding community as a mercantile store and later a post office until 1929.

Restoration Plans
The Hubbell House Alliance is a non-profit organization formed by the Committee to Preserve the Hubbell Property. The proposed Hubbell Demonstration Farm and Living History Museum will provide many benefits to the community including job training for South Valley youth, local history tutorials, economic development for small-scale sustainable agriculture and advocacy of organic farming methods.

Public Access
At current, the Hubbell Property is not open to the public because it is in need of renovation and does not meet required public building codes. The Hubbell House Alliance conducts community workdays at the Hubbell House in collaboration with Cornerstones Community Partnerships and the Bernalillo County Parks and Recreation Department. Contact the Alliance for upcoming workday information.
