Looking for huge views, privacy and a beautifully updated home all within five minutes from downtown Santa Fe? This contemporary style home is well positioned providing extraordinary views of the twinkling city lights as well as the Sangre de Cristo mountains. Approximately 1.5 miles from the Historic Plaza it is an architectural work of art. Designed by well known French/American architect Philippe Register, it has bold features with both Pueblo and Modernist inspiration. The front elevation with it's strong horizontal profile is striking. Wonderful to entertain in featuring an open concept floor plan with a natural flow between inside and outside living spaces. After the stairs up from the garage, all the main living is on one floor: master suite, living/family room, dining room, chef's kitchen, laundry room, pantry and a second bedroom / bathroom. A patio on the mountain side of the home perfect for outside dining under the Pergola and a covered portal extends the living room on the city side. Up eleven steps is a study with a private balcony that has a commanding view of the ski basin. From the study there is a lockable entrance to the separate Guest Suite. The guests have their own separate exterior entry, garage and kitchenette. Garage parking for three cars, tons of storage and a long paved driveway makes parking for guests during parties a breeze. Don't let steps detour you from seeing this home... sometimes the best things in life require a tiny bit of effort.
