Ideal for modern Santa Fe living, this rare builder-constructed three-bedroom contemporary farmhouse has been impeccably maintained indoors and out. It features a classic pitched tin roof and an easy, accessible floor plan filled with light. Beyond a thoughtful entry room that helps retain warm air in winter lie an open-plan dining and family room with vaulted beamed ceilings and an elegant kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, a gas range, and granite countertops. Well-secluded from the two lower-level bedrooms, the second-story master suite boasts a wood-burning stove, a walk-in closet, and a luxurious bath with a steamshower. Other highlights include a screened-in sunporch, a spacious upper-level office, a dry sauna, a mudroom, a separate in-law suite or artist's studio above the heated two-car garage, and superior finishes and amenities. The rugged five-acre grounds include a playground area, shimmering aspens, a fenced yard, and a private flagstone patio perfect for outdoor living and entertaining. The property enjoys easy access to private hiking trails.
The 2,500 or so acres that comprise this area immediately south of Eldorado are part of the old Sebastian De Vargas Grant and include Lamy, Galisteo, Camino Valle Street, Los Caballos, Los Vaqueros, Old Road Ranch, Pinon Street, Ranchitos de Santa Fe, The Ridges and Cimarron. Lovely tree-covered artist and ranching villages are surrounded by gently rolling hills.
