Beautiful light and New Mexico views abound from this super-comfortable 2900 sq-ft home situated on 2.5 acres just 20 min drive southeast of downtown Santa Fe. Maximum privacy is afforded by the smart layout with master bedroom suite to one side of the living room, formal dining room, kitchen and 2 bedrooms (with views) and guest bathroom on the other. Delightful kitchen features include loads of cabinets, a raised kiva fireplace and a large dine-in kitchen area surrounded by big windows and direct access to a covered portal that wraps around the back of the house to the master bedroom suite. The extraordinary northwest-side attached addition is approx. 400 sq-ft with plenty of windows, views, two exterior doors, butler sink, mini-fridge, cabinets and enormous 9x12 closet--ideal for a studio/office/family room.

Lovely tree-covered artist and ranching villages are surrounded by gently rolling hills.
