Perched on a hill overlooking the church and heart of the village, this historic Galisteo adobe was given new life. An authentic Old Soul built in the 1870s, a 2016 renovation tastefully updated the home, while respectfully retaining its charm, character and authenticity. The home is open and inviting, warm and cozy, with vigas, nichos, brick and saltillo tile floors, plaster walls and artistically hand painted interior doors. The fully renovated kitchen features a farm sink, honed marble countertops, Wolf range/oven, Fisher-Paykel refrigerator, KitchenAid dishwasher and custom built cabinets. The hot water radiant heating system, plumbing, electric and tankless hot water with filter are updated. The 1980s bedroom and bath addition has hot water baseboard heat. The property includes ruins which the State Archaeology Department has deemed Significant. With a lovely setting and beautiful 180 panoramic views from the spacious, charming courtyard, this is a rare Galisteo offering.
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.
