Experience authentic Southwestern living on 12.5 private acres along the historic Turquoise Trail, where panoramic skies, dramatic mountain views, and authentic Santa Fe architecture create a setting that feels both expansive and intimate. Just minutes from Santa Fe, this exceptional property offers a true compound lifestyle with three distinct structures: a two-bedroom, one-bath main residence, a one-bedroom, one-bath guest casita, and a thoughtfully designed studio with dedicated sleeping area and kitchen—ideal for creative pursuits, extended guests, or flexible living. The main home showcases classic Santa Fe craftsmanship with soaring ceilings, massive round vigas, hand-painted Mexican tile, custom wood doors, and hand-forged ironwork. Warm, inviting interiors open effortlessly to multiple patios and portals, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Every angle captures sweeping views of surrounding mountain ranges and the endless New Mexico sky—perfect for sunset gatherings, morning coffee, or quiet reflection. The freestanding guest casita offers privacy and comfort, enhanced by multiple outdoor living spaces that frame breathtaking views of the Ortiz Mountains. The nearby studio, filled with natural light, provides inspiring space for artists, writers, or anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. Set on land once part of the ancient San Marcos Pueblo, the property carries a deep sense of history and connection to place. Here, wide-open space, tranquility, and authenticity define daily life—while Santa Fe’s renowned dining, galleries, and cultural attractions remain an easy scenic drive away.
