Property Description

An authentic adobe compound in Arroyo Hondo, just 15 minutes from the Plaza. Set on 5 lush acres, this extraordinary property includes a 4-bedroom main house, guest house, two separate studios, and multiple outdoor living spaces that together create a private world of beauty, creativity, and connection to the landscape. At the heart of the estate is a magical interior courtyard where towering cottonwoods, aspens, green lawns, and winding pathways create the feeling of a secret garden. The compound unfolds around this serene gathering space, connecting the main house, guest house, studios, and portals in a way that feels both intimate and expansive. Built in 1995, the 4,000 sq. ft. adobe main residence embodies timeless Santa Fe elegance with vigas, coved ceilings, hand-troweled diamond plaster walls, brick flooring, and multiple fireplaces. The soaring living room features vaulted ceilings, built-in bookshelves and cabinetry, and French doors opening to portals and lush grounds beyond. The kitchen and dining area flow outdoors to a portal with kiva fireplace and grilling area designed for gathering and long New Mexico evenings. The 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath main house is thoughtfully arranged with bedrooms in the south wing, each enjoying direct outdoor access. A fourth bedroom with fireplace presently functions as a cozy den. Across the courtyard, the 840 sq. ft. guest house offers privacy and flexibility for guests. Studio #1, once an artist's studio with water access, is currently used as a 'man cave, while Studio #2?attached to the detached two-car garage?serves as a music studio. The rooftop deck above Studio #1 offers panoramic sunset views, bancos, and a kiva fireplace. Newer additions include an exterior sauna, bocce ball court, and private trail system winding throughout the property. With solar power, a new roof, a private well, room for horses, and endless spaces to gather, create and recharge, this exceptional compound is more than a home?it is a sanctuary.
