Kicking off an EPIC #FridayNightZillow, exclusively tonight on Mastodon, with a RADIOACTIVE RESORT in New Mexico!
Boasting "the hottest, strongest natural radium springs IN THE WORLD," the Radium Hot Springs resort features tons of history, a Billy the Kid connection, gorgeous scenery, and well, radium! $2.499M for 15BR, 15BA, 17K sf. Previously $6M so we're getting a discount!
Follow along, share, comment. It's meant to be an escape from the madness of daily life. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/2200-County-Road-D061-Las-Cruces-NM-88007/2067508049_zpid/
Found this article on the history: "The Springs became a sacred place, and no horseman was allowed to ride within a mile of the steaming waters. Even Geronimo, the famous Apache Chief, used to make his camp nearby, so he and his warriors could bathe in the revitalizing waters.” It was also used by Spanish settlers and denizens of nearby Fort Selden (of "Buffalo Soldiers" fame): More at the link: #FridayNightZillow https://oregontechsfcdn.azureedge.net/oregontech/docs/default-source/geoheat-center-documents/quarterly-bulletin/vol-23/art13.pdf?sfvrsn=91208d60_4
The place features some funky desert art, a main lodge building, a sweet deck overlooking the water. #FridayNightZillow
Hey look. In addition to the outdoor hot springs you also get these historic indoor tubs, with the radium waters piped in. People used to flock to the place for the supposed healing powers of the waters. And, while radioactive, it's not THAT radioactive, right? Right???#FridayNightZillow
The place was built in 1931 by Harry Bailey, a friend of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Pretty neat. Not sure what this room is? #FridayNightZillow
Found this cool profile of the owners, a fun couple of realtors from El Paso who have been renovating the place since 2019. When they bought it, it still had remnants of its time as a *women's prison*! “When I bought (the building), it still had the prison doors in each room,” Juan said.

Gotta give props to the stellar TV placement here. Maybe pilots value their necks more than other humans? #FridayNightZillow

This is one of the sweeter kitchens I've seen. You get the island archipelago common to modern mega mansions, subtle colors, etc. Not really my style, but maybe it's yours! #FridayNightZillow
The his and hers closets are truly bonkers, but for $20M, they better be. #FridayNightZIllow
PARTY SHOWER OF THE WEEK. And maybe the year! (We vote on New Year's Eve!) It's enormous and I l lost count of just how many nozzles are in here. I bet the plumber got to pay for his vacation home out of this job. #FridayNightZillow
I can't even imagine having a ONE ACRE ARTIFICIAL LAWN, but it is the state that brought us Astroturf, so.... #FridayNightZillow
