This South facing 3 bedroom, 2 bath Eldorado home sits on just over 1.3 acres overlooking a large greenbelt for privacy and unobstructed views of the Ortiz and Sandia mountains. Filled with classic Santa Fe architectural details and fantastic light, the front entry has a split cedar and viga ceiling and opens into the living room with a central kiva fireplace, lighted nichos, high ceilings, vigas, hand carved corbels and beams as well as carved twisted posts which define the space between the living and dining areas. The dining room and kitchen have lovely coved ceilings with vigas, and the kitchen has hand carved tin fronted cabinets – a very traditional and special look. The dining room, with French doors opening to the flagstone patio for al fresco dining and grilling, is perfect for watching the sunset colors spread across the sky! Good bedroom separation with the two guest bedrooms and bath on one side of the house and the primary bedroom on the other. The 3rd bedroom is quite large and has some built in shelving and desk, as well as access to the walled back patio. There is also a large laundry room with sink leading to the two-car garage with tons of cabinets, work bench area, huge storage closet and a 220 outlet for car charging. The primary bedroom has the high ceilings with vigas, corner kiva fireplace, sweet stained-glass window and French doors leading out to the private back patio and hot tub for starry night soaking. The large ensuite bathroom has two sinks, separate shower and a jacuzzi tub with plenty of closet space. New central heat & refrigerated AC installed March 2026, living room fireplace relined in 2025 and hot water heater is about 5 years old. Also offering a $3,500 appliance allowance for new kitchen appliances, and there is a nice bonus of a little walled yard next to the garage which could be camo for an RV or a nice veggie garden spot to keep out hungry bunnies.
