116 Balboa Rd Santa Fe, NM 87505

Impeccably restored and maintained, this 4 bedroom/3 bath home is a sophisticated example of the earthy style intrinsic to Santa Fe. The combination of adobe with plank ceilings, exposed square cut beams and vigas, arched thresholds, recessed windows, kiva fireplaces, a portal with a beautiful courtyard, result in a harmonious blend of regional traditions with comfort and elegance. With an eye to the eclecticism that distinguishes the Santa Fe design tradition, the owner has skillfully incorporated other architectural influences into their renovations. Colonial grid windows, hard wood floors throughout, whitewashed ceilings, skylights, French doors tastefully combine hints of California Mission style with an Asian quietude and contemporary neatness. The central living area hosts a fully modernized kitchen with a casual eating area that centers around the hearth in winter and large windows to give a view to the garden in summer. A generously sized formal dining area unfolds into a handsome living room centered on a large hearth and two walls of windows to capture garden views and the brilliant New Mexico light across the seasons. Additional rooms for rest and work flank the central living area with a guest bedroom and large office on one side and the primary suite with one additional guest room and another office on the other. The exterior patio with a kiva fireplace and facing a shaded garden offers an intimate setting for plein air dining. Conveniently located near the downtown, Museum Hill and hiking trails.
