While enjoying COOL TEMPS in summer, spectacular high-country Mountain VIEWS and a year-round spring-fed RIVER, Casa Veranda is rare find. A traditional Northern New Mexico homestead where history, nature, and timeless design exist in harmony. This inviting home was built in the late 1800s, nestled among shade trees, with ample gracious porches, Casa Veranda is an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy outdoor living amidst unique Southwest architecture. Privately situated on 4.13 serene acres, the property unfolds as a landscape of quiet beauty. The gentle sound of the river meanders through the lower meadow, (with precious acequia irrigation rights conveyed), while mature aspens and shade trees frame terraced gardens and established fruit trees. Panoramic mountain views create an ever-changing backdrop beneath Northern New Mexico's spectacular skies. The beautifully preserved adobe residence, fully renovated, offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms, thoughtfully blending authentic New Mexican architecture with the comforts of modern living. Thick adobe walls, hand-hewn vigas, traditional architectural details, and glowing kiva fireplaces speak to the home's rich heritage, while zoned radiant floor heating provides effortless year-round comfort. Designed for gathering as much as retreating, Casa Veranda embraces indoor-outdoor living. Covered porches invite peaceful mornings with coffee and bird life (125 species are recorded so far!) while the charming pergola creates a magical setting for alfresco dining beneath star-filled skies. Every outdoor space has been crafted to celebrate the beauty of its surroundings. Phenomenally dark night skies enhance opportunities for enjoying the Milky Way, meteor showers and other astronomy. Complementing the main residence is a detached studio, offering flexibility as an artist's retreat, office, wellness space, or guest accommodations. Along the banks of the Rio Chiquito, a whimsical glamping retreat creates an unforgettable experience for guests, providing a unique opportunity for boutique hospitality or peaceful riverside escapes immersed in nature. Whether envisioned as a private mountain getaway, a multigenerational family home, or an exceptional income-producing property, Casa Veranda offers a lifestyle that is increasingly rare - where history is honored, nature is ever-present, and every season reveals new beauty. More than a home, it is a legacy property that captures the enduring spirit of Northern New Mexico and invites its next steward to become part of its life. The home is being sold fully furnished, and this very special property is a must-see. This listing has an interior video tour and exterior drone video for your viewing pleasure.
