Tucked in the hills on a 3.198-acre view lot off Old Santa Fe Trail, this unique custom home by Kim Dressel offers 4,086 square feet of distinctive living space and relaxing private quarters. At the heart of the home is a generous living room with a media nook; it adjoins a spacious, light filled eat-in kitchen, a formal dining room, and an expansive portal with built-in grilling area and a hot tub. Radiating from this central area are wings -- one containing three guest bedrooms and two guest baths, the other an idyllic master bedroom suite and a handsome private office. Among the elegant finishes found throughout the home are glowing hand-troweled plaster walls, sandstone and hardwood floors, granite countertops, lovely classic doors and cabinets, ceiling beams and latillas, and appliances from Viking, Sub-Zero, and Bosch. The rear portal -- which runs the entire length of the home and includes space for living and dining as well as an open, sunny brick patio area -- allows for peaceful enjoyment of the views and Santa Fe's famous temperate climate. Adding to the appeal are two- and one-car garage bays and a private well. This superb residence offers a life of complete privacy yet is only minutes from downtown.
