Description
A truly inspired mid-century home like this cannot be found anywhere but Santa Fe. Ideally located where South Capitol meets Museum Hill, you will enjoy the convenience of being adjacent to the iconic Old Pecos Trail. Designed & built in 1955, with a dramatic expansion in 1975, this home has evolved into unique & stunning! The mid-century conversation pit, large rooms & soaring ceilings are invigorated with elements of Santa Fe style: an iconic Kiva fireplace, double arrow carved details, customized latilla ceilings, nichos & vigas. You will appreciate hand plastered walls, narrow oak flooring that harks back to the 50s but look new, other floors are brick, flagstone, & tile. The full acre property offers 3 distinctive outdoor areas: one is shady, tree-filled and comes alive at dusk with cool vintage lights. Off the studio is a sunny fenced yard. Third & largest is a grand gathering space for parties, sit-down dinners, fireplace chats - surrounded by lush gardens. Sprawling across the main floor you will find entertainment-ready public spaces: the lofted great room, sitting area, media/TV retreat, dining room, plus eat-in kitchen. The bedroom wing is set apart with the primary bedroom en-suite, plus 2 large bedrooms that share the main hallway bath. The public 1/2 bath & laundry are part of the large media room area. The bonus is upstairs: an attached guest suite with private entrance, OR, second en-suite primary bedroom. Unexpected highlights: a 17' tall glass-walled art studio/gym, library/office, heated 2 car garage wired for 240 + separate storage room. This property is flush with flexibility: if you seek a home office retreat there are many options.
