Stunning sunset and mountain views from this luxurious home in Aldea is just minutes from the Santa Fe Plaza and the Opera. Actually, it is convenient with easy access to all areas of Santa Fe including Mid-Town restaurants, pubs, Southside shopping, and all our major highways.
The living area and the portal that surrounds this home has wrap around views of the Jemez Mountains and Los Alamos. The aspen focused house entry incorporates “Zen adobe” elements while the enclosed backyard features native plants and walkways inspired by Southwest national park nature trails. These beautiful plants provide a habitat for the many bird species that migrate through Santa Fe.
Inside, the influence of the home’s designer is apparent with carefully selected finishes and colors creating a modern version of classic adobe style blended with eclectic high quality furnishings. Diamond glaze plaster, custom window coverings, and wood framed windows provide the setting for Persian inspired area rugs combined with leather upholstered pieces to create a comfortable retreat. Two indoor (living room and master bedroom) and one outdoor wood-burning fire places.
The Great Room with its 12 foot ceilings connects to a dramatic, open gourmet kitchen. Stainless steel appliances include refrigerator, wine refrigerator, double ovens, dishwasher, over-counter microwave, and gas cook-top. Small appliances include ironing board with iron, toaster, coffee maker, blender, and electric tea kettle. Plenty of cabinets, open shelving, and a walk-in pantry, plus built-in wine racks and shelves. The gourmet chef will enjoy All-Clad and Le Creuset cookware while preparing their favorite meals and serving them with Fiesta ware, flatware, pans, and utensils.. The dining area accommodates 10.
Three sets of French doors provide access to the outdoor portal. A large remote controlled sunshade provides protection from heat and glare when you are enjoying the views at sunset. During warmer months, morning coffee on the portal will invite you to linger while enjoying the lovely Santa Fe weather. To the south of the portal, there is an area that has a non-regulation Petanque court bordered by grape vines. This informal game is similar to Italian Bocce, but is played with steel balls. If you are a gardener, three raised beds next to the Petanque court can produce herbs, vegetables or flowers.
A spacious master queen bedroom and bath offer a spacious walk-in closet with built-in shelving. The queen guest bedroom is complimented with a large closet offering built-in shelving. The separate office has its own stone patio and a closet with spacious built-in storage for office needs. An intimate den/home theater offering a 55” screen and audiophile sound that plays in six zones inside and the portal too. Premium voice controlled cable for Xfinity, smart technology for streaming and high speed internet provide a full complement of options for entertainment, work, and connecting with friends and family. If you want to go off the grid, you can enjoy the tuned, Yamaha U-1 piano in the guest room.
Aldea de Santa Fe is a neighborhood based on New Urbanism design that encourages walking, connection with neighbors, and appreciation of the surrounding land. Many housing areas are clustered around an open space connected by miles of trails. The Aldea Plaza offers a variety of small retail businesses with live/work units. The Aldea social committee sponsors regular social events at the community center. The book club and walking groups provide great opportunities to meet your neighbors. Tennis courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, mini-parks, and a community center with fitness equipment are at your pleasure to enjoy!
