About this property

A Unique Artisan/Yogi Home in Eldorado, Santa Fe

Relish the serenity of this art-filled 3-bedroom Eldorado home with 360 degree mountain views. ArtiZen Abode, an easy 15 minute drive from the exciting activities of downtown Santa Fe, offers unique elements of beauty and tranquility for the perfect Santa Fe vacation.

Located on 1-1/2 acres, you will be immersed in a quiet and beauty that inspire artistic works and zen experiences to nurture and rejuvenate body, mind, and spirit. El Dorado, the largest passive solar community in the United States, void of street lamps and upward-facing house lights, allows for stunning night skies and unparalleled star gazing. It’s as though you can touch the Milky Way. Sunrise views, from the yoga/art studio, create a perfect environment for sun salutations or artisan inspirations.

Adobe southwest design, artistic décor and furnishings throughout depict the typical southwestern home. There are natural wood beamed ceilings in the great room and saltillo floors throughout. ArtiZen boasts an open living plan encompassing the kitchen, dining and living spaces. In the great room you will find a gas lit wood-burning fireplace to provide ambience or extra warmth on cool evenings. Furnishing include a high-quality sleeper sofa, two comfortable lounge chairs, side tables, and an ottoman filled with games, books, and writing materials. Not to be forgotten is the 58” Smart HDTV. A dining and/or game table opens to main area. The kitchen is fully stocked with high-quality cookware and appliances for all your culinary adventures. Being foodies ourselves, you will enjoy the completeness and ease of cooking for yourselves or entertaining guests.

ArtiZen sleeps eight (8) and is dog-friendly for pooches with good manners and loving temperaments. There are 3 bedrooms in total. The master bedroom, furnished with a queen bed, large dresser, and walk in closet, includes an ensuite bathroom with double sinks, a separate shower, and soaking tub large enough for two. The second bedroom, having a queen bed, and the third bedroom, equipped with bunk beds (having weight limits of 150 pounds each bunkbed), share the second full bath. The great room includes a comfortable queen sofa bed.

Our unique and spacious art/yoga studio is designed for multiple uses. This former 2 1/2 car garage has been upgraded into a beautiful studio that offers seclusion from the main home. Yogis will appreciate the 7’x7’ yoga mat, several individual mats, yoga bolsters, blocks, and straps for personal or small group practice. Within this picturesque space, artisans will be inspired to create original works from their aesthetic values. Additionally, this large room includes an area that can serve as an office for wireless access to your computer and personal technology. A printer is available for use.

Sit on the outdoor patio and enjoy a beverage or relax on lounge chairs on warm days. Enjoy the beauty of desert landscape as your canine friend runs safely in our enclosed back yard. Provided binoculars let you view wildlife including western bluebirds, quail, coyote, and pronghorn antelope. Gas grill and tools make cook-outs easy.

ArtiZen is just 15 minutes from Santa Fe Plaza, and easy driving distance to mountain hikes, ski slopes, and historic ruins. Skiing, hiking, biking, arts and culture abound in the beautiful high desert Southwest. Then, come home to the beauty and tranquility of ArtiZen Abode. Welcome!

Great Stay in Eldorado

Nice home with easy access to Santa Fe plaza. Home was as described and owners were quick to respond. Fully stocked kitchen was great for preparing meals. Our dogs enjoyed the fenced back yard. Only issue was the yard was all sand so dogs brought sand inside even after being wiped down. It would have been nice to have access to a small vacuum to keep up with the dust and sand.

Escape from the Daily Rat Race

We were searching for a place to escape our wash rinse repeat lives for a few days and to enjoy a concert we waited a whole year for. This place provided us the escape, the peace, and serenity we needed! It’s hard to leave knowing we have to go back to our normal lives! If you get a chance to stay here take a moment and listen to the silence outside and really take in the beauty of the area! If you're looking for a quiet place in nature with the comforts of home, this is the place for you!!

Enjoyable Extended Family Stay

We stayed at Debbie’s and Charlie’s for a month with our family while relocating to the area. Debbie accommodated an early check in and their onsite manager Cisi was kind and easy to communicate any needs to. Yoga room was a fun play room for our son. Kitchen is stocked well for in home cooking which we appreciated for our longer stay. A well loved home in Eldorado that offers a peaceful stay. Easy access to Santa Fe and the amenities in Eldorado are great too for staying close.

What a wonderful place for a quiet stay. We greatly enjoyed the home. Nice cozy 3 bedrooms with a fully equipped kitchen. There was no noise - it was like being completely surrounded with silence and stars at night. We watched shooting stars and enjoyed our time in Santa Fe.

2-week stay in Santa Fe in August

We stayed for 2 weeks and the house was perfect for us. Loved the views from the back portal, the real central AC (it was August and it got warm for a few days), and the newly renovated kitchen. It was close to town (20 minutes to Trader Joe's or 23 to the Whole Foods as a reference point) but gave us beautiful views and peace and quit. We would definitely stay again!

Beautiful View and Peaceful Getaway

We were attending the Native market and this was a great home to escape the chaos. The drive everyday was great in and to the home, as all the homes are adobe and makes a great view through the dips of the desert valley. Getting up early morning and sitting on the back porch and seeing hummingbirds, song birds, rabbits, lizards, and bees roam the area made it feel close to nature. The home had everything we needed as it was 4 of us all family, and our German Shepherd, who at first was wary of the desert dirt, as he is familiar with grass. He eventually became comfortable to walk up and down the road in front of the house. There are plenty of walking trails to for those that enjoy a good jog in the morning. There is a studio in the house and that made a great spot as an artist to spread out and get artwork organized. I would love to stay again but just to relax and enjoy more of the surrounding area.

It is OK but won't stay there again

The place is beautiful & convenient to lots of things. But because of several issues, I would not stay there again. 1. It was our 50th anniversary & we decided to grill steaks. Imagine our surprise when we went to light the grill & there was no gas. " Gas grill and tools make cook-outs easy." Called the property mgr (Casi) who was no help...said guess we have to go buy gas (we are out of towners and have no idea where to get propane at 7:00 pm. 2. There are birdfeeders, but bring your own birdseed if you want to attrack any birds. We never saw binoculars. 3. The towels and sheets were damp...not a pleasant feeling wrapping up in one after taking a shower. 4. The headboard in the master bedroom is beautiful and there are instructions not to lean against it...so watching the TV in the room is useless. Why even have a TV in there? 5. I suggest taking your own food condiments, baking needs, etc. The maple syrup we found in the cabinet was moldy (maple syrup should always be refrigerated), the brown sugar was like a rock, and most of the seasonings and condiments were expired. 6. We had to buy go dish soap, dishwasher pods & paper towels as we ran out of them. 7. The dishwasher is about half the size of a normal dishwasher. I recommend you bring paper plates/glasses or you wll be spending a lot of time running the dishwasher. 8. I don't think I have ever seen toilet paper that thin! You could literally see your hand through it. We bought our own. Even gas stations have better TP.

Secluded gem.

The property has everything that you need. It is truly a home away from home. We came for a XC race in Los Alamos, which is an hour away but we loved the privacy that this home provided. Santa Fe downtown is 30 minutes away, there is a gas station near by with basic supplies. The owners were easy to contact before booking, and they provide a list of how-to-do’s which was extremely helpful. Board games, washer and dryer, and large fridge were a plus. We enjoyed our stay, looking forward to book it again next time we are in Santa Fe.

Santa Fe Oasis

We loved the location of this abode. The sounds of silence were by far our favorite in addition to the sunsets. What a perfect getaway with southwestern charm just a hop skip & jump away from Santa Fe. As 2 yogis we especially loved the yoga room. Oh & into cooking? Best equipped kitchen I’ve seen at a VRBO, everything you could want or need. Highly recommended.

Relaxing in Eldorado

My wife and I had been on the road for a week prior to arriving at the property. We were tired and ready for some rest and relaxation. We were not disappointed! This is a wonderful home that was spotless and well kept. Access was a breeze and everything was as advertised. Nice yard for our doggie and a comfortable place for me and my wife. My only regret is not staying longer! I hope to visit Santa Fe again at some point and if I find my way back, I will definitely be staying in this property.
