The View House. This 4BR/4Bath exemplary Santa Fe home offers generous living spaces and is perfectly sited to maximize impressive views of the Sangres and Jemez mountains – sunrise to sunset. Quality custom built with hand-carved doors, hand-hewn vigas, high ceilings, graceful archways and 5 traditional New Mexican woodburning kivas fireplaces – hand-crafted. Soft corners and diamond plaster finishes are Santa Fe unique. The oversized kitchen has the ideal layout to be the relaxing hub of the home: cook’s kitchen with granite island and top-end appliances, comfy eat-in area and cozy gathering space for TV viewing plus big windows and patio doors showcasing the vistas and views. This wing leads to a 1/2 bath, laundry/mudroom and 3-car garage (900+ sq ft) with copper doors. The central portion of the house greets you upon entry, the living and dining rooms offer generous windows opening to land and sky.
In the bedroom wing, you’ll find a gracious primary suite with a huge bathroom and 2 walk-in closets. The large bathing tub and snazzy shower provide spa-like options. The 2nd bedroom (or office/gym) opens to a private portal and garden with water feature. A 3rd bedroom and full bath are nearby. But wait: there’s more. Beyond another hand-carved door is a very special feature for the next owner – an attached, fully appointed 1BR/1BA casita with separate entrance and private portal. The entire home is single level with only 2 steps in the casita. Private? secluded by abundant greenery on nearly 2 acres. Location? just minutes to town in the La Mariposa community, paved roads, and super low HOA fee ($109/monthly). A great commute to Los Alamos or 10 minute drive to the Plaza. Operating costs? reduced in perpetuity with new solar electric system.
The true WOW factor of this house is the north-facing portal (think shade!) with access from kitchen, dining, and main bedroom. This portal showcases big skies, big views, big mountains, big vistas!
