1474 Bishops Lodge Rd Santa Fe, NM 87506

Welcome to Casa Rio – the house on the river - A charming, country compound shaded by mature trees. This private, gated sanctuary is only four miles from the Santa Fe Plaza and 0.8 miles to the Tesuque Village Market, along a scenic, tree-lined road. Exquisitely expanded by the current owners, the compound comprises main house, garage, studio, private office and bunkhouse. A glorious light pervades the interiors. No expense was spared in selecting the finishes, from the diamond plaster walls, flooring, to the bathroom and kitchen accents. The main house has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, living area, two dining areas, well-equipped kitchen and shaded entertaining portal overlooking the river. Across from the main house the ground level of the newer structure houses the large two-room artist studio (a flexible use space), wine cellar/tasting room, private study, bathroom and two-car garage, with workshop and additional storage. The guest/bunk house, which sleeps eight, is on the upper level, with two bedrooms, living area and bathroom, romantically perched in the treetops. The proximity to Santa Fe and the Opera offers rental opportunity. Throughout there is efficient use of space. Thoughtfully landscaped, with a path leading to a bench by the river, this property enchants.
