This spacious home is ideal whether you’re raising a family or creating your
own artist retreat. With 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a charming den/writer’s
study with a kiva fireplace, it combines privacy with proximity. Set on a quiet
cul-de-sac just a mile from the much-desired first entrance to Eldorado, it is
nestled on 2.34-acres amid pinon and juniper woodlands. Perfect for
entertaining, the comfortable great room offers panoramic wilderness and
sunset views through the centerpiece picture windows. The woodstove is
accented by an exposed adobe trombe wall, adding warmth and ambience.
The open concept kitchen is bathed in natural light from its clerestory
windows, has counters for prepping and a large island for serving. Wood
ceilings and built-in bookshelves can be found throughout the home, including
an oversized kitchen pantry. Two of the bathroom showers are Mexican-tiled,
and newer laminate floors and carpets are in all the bedrooms and den. High
ceilings and 11 skylights throughout brighten the house and contribute to the
efficiency of its passive solar energy features. The two-car garage provides
ample storage for vehicles and recreational equipment and includes flex
space for an additional craft room or art studio complete with windows and a
skylight. This home has been much-loved and well-maintained by the same
family for the past 18 years, including new stucco, garage door, and concrete
driveway in 2020. It is a short walk from the community center, pool, tennis
courts, and dog park, and close to shopping, schools, and dining. Close-in,
the home has easy access to Interstate 25, to cultural events in Santa Fe, and
year-round recreational hiking, fishing, skiing, and biking.
