Elevated Living in Santa Fe’s Foothills Perched at approximately 7,500 feet, this extraordinary Santa Fe residence offers a true top-of-the-world experience, pairing exceptional privacy with breathtaking views across five mountain ranges. Fiery sunsets, dramatic desert storms, and the shimmering lights of the city create an ever-changing panorama of Northern New Mexico. Set on five piñon-studded acres, the property offers seclusion, inspiration, and easy access to Santa Fe’s historic Plaza, renowned museums, and world-class dining. A thoughtfully sited rock lined trail winds to a scenic overlook at the top of the property, creating an idyllic setting for early-evening toasts as the landscape glows in the fading light. Inside, the great room is filled with natural light from soaring two-story windows and opens to spacious decks, perfectly positioned for enjoying the expansive high-desert sky. The interiors are richly appointed with antique and artisan details, including hand-troweled plaster walls, ash and sandstone floors, and handcrafted cabinetry. Oversized vigas, rough-hewn pine, and finely crafted latillas add warmth, texture, and an unmistakable sense of place. Five wood-burning fireplaces—including three arranged in a distinctive Suisse-inspired configuration—bring comfort and charm to the living, dining, and outdoor spaces during cooler months. An open kitchen, generous living areas, and inviting outdoor spaces make entertaining both memorable and effortless. The three-bedroom floor plan includes a luxurious main-level primary suite with a spa-like bath, walk-in closet, and direct access to the deck. Upstairs, a second exceptional suite showcases dramatic views and opens to its own terrace with magnificent vistas. The third bedroom is located back on the main level, overlooking the courtyard and offering an en-suite bath. Additional architectural highlights include specially designed northeast-facing moon-view windows that beautifully frame the boulder-, stone-, and earth-wrapped cove below. Native plantings create a peaceful outdoor retreat, perfect for quiet reflection or intimate gatherings. This remarkable property is a rare blend of artistry, privacy, natural beauty, and proximity—an elevated Santa Fe retreat designed to inspire.
