Nestled among the mountains along the Turquoise Trail south of Santa Fe is a private country living dream. Twenty acres of fenced land supports a sustainable complex that provides views, views, views and off grid existence. Horses? One can ride tremendous distances through endless beauty, directly from the property. The main house includes two bedrooms, an attached greenhouse for growing all year long, a SAUNA, and lovely adobe construction and detail. A _______ square foot Studio is also attached and heated with a large wood burning stove. An office is an extension of that space.An oversized garage is perfect for utilization of additional studio space, car storage, or eventual development for another living area or apartment (mother-in law, renters, caretakers?) This property offers so many choices for expansion. Imagination runs wild!
Once home to the large mining community, Madrid is now a sleepy little town of artists. With an ice cream parlour and old fashioned businesses, Madrid feels other-worldly to visitors. Homes here are early 20th century wooden structures painted a variety of colors. Just north of Madrid is Cerrillos, a traditional New Mexico village of older adobes and quaint shops.
The Turquoise Trail! A beautiful road from Santa Fe all the way to Albuquerque. With many lots 2.5 acres or more, this area is perfect for raising horses on wide open spaces with fewer building restrictions than in the city of Santa Fe. The famous Eaves Movie Ranch where movies like “The Cheyenne Social Club” and “Silverado”were filmed completes the Old West feeling.
This rapidly growing area with plans for expansion extending into the 2050’s is largely made up of rolling hills dotted with pinon and juniper. Most of the communities located here have extraordinary views of the Jemez, the Sangres and the Sandias.
