A truly inspired mid-century home like this cannot be found anywhere but Santa Fe and is ideally located where South Capitol meets Museum Hill. Designed & built in 1955, with a dramatic expansion in 1975, this home has evolved into unique & stunning! The mid-century conversation pit, large rooms & soaring ceilings are invigorated with elements of Santa Fe style: an iconic Kiva fireplace, double arrow carved details, customized latilla ceilings, nichos & vigas.
Bespoke in so many ways by teams of craftsmen, you will appreciate hand plastered walls, narrow oak flooring that harks back to the 50s but looks brand new, other floors are brick, flagstone, & tile.
The full acre property offers 3 distinctive outdoor areas: one is shady, tree-filled and comes alive at dusk with cool vintage lights. Off the studio is a sunny fenced yard with pear tree. Third & largest is a grand gathering space for parties, sit-down dinners, fireplace chats - surrounded by lush gardens. Sprawling across the main floor you will find entertainment-ready public spaces like a lofted great room, sitting, media, dining rooms plus eat-in kitchen. The bedroom wing is set apart with the primary bedroom en-suite plus 2 large bedrooms that share the main bath. The public 1/2 bath & laundry are part of the large media room area. The bonus is upstairs: an attached guest suite with private entrance, OR, second en-suite primary bedroom. Unexpected highlights: a 17' tall glass-walled art studio/gym, a "treasure room" or library, heated 2 car garage wired for 240 + separate workshop OR storage room. This property is flush with flexibility: if you seek a home office retreat there are many options. You will love the practicalty of this "Santa Fe Central" location where the 2 closest grocery stores are Trader Joe's & Whole Foods, the 2 closest restaurants are Museum Hill & Clafoutis. This is a rare opportunity to experience "design magazine modern" with Santa Fe spirit! Virtual tour + Video Link online
