Nestled in the hills north of Santa Fe, this open, light-filled home is a paragon of self-assured contemporary styling, combining clean, eye-catching lines with such welcome Southwestern touches as vigas, coved ceilings, and flagstone. Highlights include a majestic living room with a soaring ceiling and a fireplace, a dining room with two built-in buffets, a warm kitchen and family room, an office or guest bedroom suite, and a stately master suite with a fireplace, built-in bookshelves, a Sangre de Cristo view, and a luxurious bath that includes a dramatic two-sided glass shower and two walk-in closets. Along the front of the home runs an expansive portal perfect for grand alfresco ftes. Steps away is a charming, colorful guesthouse offering two bedrooms and baths, living and dining areas, a thoughtfully appointed kitchenette, and an office area. Mature native trees--including strikingly vibrant hawthorns--and tasteful landscaping surround the home, and the Plaza is just minutes away.
Santa Fe’s Northeast area, within city limits, while conveniently located, gives residents the pleasure of quiet living. On every tree-lined street are examples of newer, award-winning architecture and well-established, older adobes. In addition to the Santa Fe Plaza, this area extends east from St. Francis Drive and south of Alameda to the edge of the climb to the Sangre de Cristos.
