Mesilla has a rich and complex history dating back to the nineteenth century, with various stories and accounts surrounding the town’s founding and early days. Old Mesilla was established in the early 1850s when the United States and Mexico settled the boundary dispute with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The settlement was solidified with the Gadsen Purchase, which was signified by taking down the Mexican flag and raising the United States flag, indicating the United States’ land acquisition.

By the 1870s, Mesilla was progressing—thanks to booming businesses and professionals, the town was thriving. However, Mesilla also attracted outlaws like the infamous Billy the Kid. It was here where Billy was tried and sentenced in 1881.​​

Today, Mesilla is a tourist attraction for many. It still harbors much of its old-fashioned charm, from the brick walkways and adobe houses to the ghosts said to dwell within the Double Eagle restaurant. Visit the Town of Mesilla website to learn more about this unique area to work and live.

This next home in the Mesilla area features a main bedroom with gray carpet and a barn door that leads to the bathroom. The barn door and its espresso-brown stain bring a unique quality to this room and stray from the traditional doorway. It grants the room more space, visibility, and a pop of color.
