Property Details of New Mexico House

The house was custom built in 1994 by the previous and only owners....and it was carefully conceived and planned to include many special architectural features and aesthetically pleasing touches.

For instance, all the vigas are 12 inches, which are now almost impossible to find in modern-day residential structures in Santa Fe. They certainly give "presence" to the tall ceilings and the open concept plan that characterizes the house. Another architectural feature is the perfectly planned siting of the house to take advantage of morning sun and evening sunsets. Even the arched doorways and doors add unique character to this home.

Also, the way the house straddles its site and follows the "lay of the land" is rather unusual for Santa Fe homes...and gives this one a unique ambience and feeling of spaciousness because of its different levels.

Starting at the "top" of the house, you'll find the guest bedroom, den/office, guest bath with tub/shower and laundry room which leads into the two car garage. Down three steps and you're in the dining room, entry, kitchen, master bath with jacuzzi and master walk-in closet level. Another three steps from the entry hall leads down to the large living room with tall fireplace, immense windows and half-wall surround....and off the Master Bath and dressing room, three more steps lead down to the Master Bedroom with its own fireplace and private bricked patio.

Surrounding the home are outdoor living areas so perfect for the climate of Santa Fe....in the front of the house is a large walled brick patio with gardens and fruit trees....and off the dining room is a 40-foot covered brick patio perfect for whiling away the hours with a good book or for throwing a party!
