The award-winning property offers 2,535 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space in the main house, along with a 630 sq. ft. detached casita featuring two rooms and a ¾-bath, offering multifunctional space for guests, a home office, or studio. The home's elegant Southwestern character is highlighted by Saltillo tile flooring, high ceilings in the living room with square beams, large windows that frame the surrounding landscape, and multiple gas fireplaces that bring warmth and ambiance to both the main living area and spacious primary suite. French doors and exterior access from multiple rooms create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection, opening to a walled entry courtyard and enclosed backyard, both beautifully landscaped with mature plantings, flagstone patio and walkways, and a storage shed. A well-designed floor plan offers excellent bedroom separation, with a generous primary suite featuring a gas fireplace, patio access, jetted tub, double vanity, and walk-in closet. Two distinct living areas include formal living room and a comfortable family room adjacent to the updated kitchen, complete with newer appliances, solid surface countertops, and a pantry. Additional features include built-in bookshelves, graceful arches, and wall-washer skylights, enhancing both architectural detail and natural light throughout. Located in a desirable location in Eldorado near community amenities, the library, senior center, and k-8 school. Residents enjoy access to miles of trails, a clubhouse, pool, tennis courts, dog parks, and more, giving a balanced lifestyle just 20 minutes from downtown Santa Fe.
