Located on a hilltop overlooking Santa Fe, New Mexico.
This unique home was designed by Charles F. Johnson, one of the Top 100 Architects in the world (according to Architectural Digest). This home is a 3,400 sq.ft. living sculpture. Based on a circlular design this double adobe home offers a rare mix of sophistication, sensuality and organic livability. What do we mean by livability? A cozy 'Kiva' style theater room with state of the art Theater-Entertainment center, a main fireplace with towering five foot flames in an arched sculpture with breathtaking elegance, and each room has unique wooden ceiling treatments from weathered aspen to Indian style pine lattias, amazing views of both mountains and city lights from inside and outside on the grand terrace, an outdoor spa/hot tub in a private natural setting with the same amazing views, dramatic indoor lighting, plus much, much more. . . . Oh yeah, and an elevator to the lower garage floor making the home very accessible to all ages (and just plain fun).
All this tucked into a very private hillside community just 1 mile north of one of the worlds most popular tourist destinations, Santa Fe's Historic Plaza district, famous for it's beauty, shopping, restaurants, art galleries and historic old world charm.
The Neighborhood Beautiful hillside neighborhood, close to everything, yet very intimate. A long private drive-way and top-of-the-hill location make you feel far away from city life while just minutes away from the action. Pinon, Aspen, and Juniper trees all around the property,creating a private an oasis in the high-desert mountains. Minimum age requirement of primary lender 25years The home is located in a secluded area off the road and as such offers added security and privacy. Please note: there is a "ring door bell" on the front door which does have audio/video capability for the added security of the home and our guests.
Sound System The sound system can be operated most easily with the HEOS App. For your convenience, you may want to download the app prior to you arrival and become familiar with it's use. If you have any questions, we are happy to help.
Hot Tub As is common practice with spa use, please shower before use to remove dirt and excess oil or lotions. Please make sure all 4 latches are opened before you open the hot tub covers. There is a light weight green solar cover over the regular hot tub cover. This must be folder back over the "cover lifter" first before folding the regular cover over the lifter. Please always replace the cover along with the solar cover after every use. Thank you for reading. Please let us know if you have any questions or need anything during your stay.

Ashley, thank you for being such a great guest! We love the home and it means a lot to us to have our guests love it the way we do. We really appreciate the care you took to leave the home so nice! Look forward to having you stay with us again!!!
2nd time we have chosen to stay at this property and it did not disappoint! The views from the patio equal no other. Close enough to the plaza to run into town but serene and peaceful at the house. Thank you David!

Thank you Terry, always a pleasure having you! And thanks for those amazing night sky photos you took from the deck.
We look forward to your next visit1
Views were incredible! So close to downtown and all the restaurants and attractions. In the house though, felt secluded and definitely was able to enjoy some serenity.
Would stay here again and recommend to everyone!
loved the location and comfy decor - super easy and parking in garage- easy walk to great eats and the beach- and the Santa Monica steps- friendly and chill
We had a fabulous stay in this architecturally stunning property. Location is excellent; short drive to old Santa Fe (or nice walk). The terrace has extraordinary long Mountain Views; lovely for morning coffee and a late afternoon glass of wine. Very comfortable living spaces. We loved the property in every way. Absolutely perfect for 2 couples. Online photos are accurate.
Two couples stayed and had a wonderful time. Loved sitting out on the patio in the morning and evenings enjoying the view. Very quiet but also quite close to town.
This property was exactly what we were looking for during our trip to Santa Fe. Such a unique house, amazing views, and so close to downtown while still feeling so removed from everything. David was a perfect host and we had a great stay.
