Villa Philmonte, Mission Revival mansion in Cimarron, New Mexico, United States.
The Villa Philmonte spans 28,400 square feet with Mediterranean-influenced architecture, featuring stucco exteriors, tile roofs, and multiple porticoes around a central courtyard.
Oil magnate Waite Phillips constructed this residence in 1926 to manage his 300,000-acre cattle ranch, later donating the property to the Boy Scouts of America in 1941.
The interior displays a collection of European, American, and Southwestern furnishings, including antiques, weapons, and a grand piano valued at 200,000 dollars.
The mansion operates as a house museum, offering guided tours during spring, summer, and fall months through the Philmont Museum registration system.
A specially designed window added after construction provides visitors a direct view of Window Rock, integrating the natural landscape into the architectural experience.
