Tucked into a mature piñon forest in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, this inviting single-level hacienda-style residence offers privacy, character, and exceptional versatility on approximately 2.77 acres. Originally built as the model home for Hondo Hills, the 2,346-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-bath residence enjoys a gated circular driveway, extensive xeriscaping, custom stone walkways, and abundant parking for guests and recreational vehicles. At the heart of the home is a generously proportioned great room with Saltillo tile floors, an impressive wall of built-in bookcases, and a traditional fireplace fitted with a highly effective pellet stove insert that beautifully warms the great room and dining area. The light-filled eat-in kitchen features a charming bay window overlooking the wooded setting. The spacious primary suite is complemented by an attached office, media room or art studio with a wood-burning kiva fireplace, creating an inviting and flexible private retreat. Covered portals at the front and rear extend the living spaces outdoors for entertaining, dining, and enjoying the natural surroundings. An oversized attached two-car garage is joined by a detached one-car garage of approximately 300 square feet, complete with electricity and an overhead door. This additional structure offers excellent flexibility for vehicle or equipment storage, or creative projects. Further highlights include a solar-equipped greenhouse, a built-in brick barbecue, propane cooking with a 300-gallon storage tank, mini-split heating and cooling, and a whole-house purification system. A new TPO roof and new skylights were installed in 2022, adding important value and peace of mind. Conveniently located with easy access to restaurants, recreation, and central Santa Fe, this distinctive foothills property brings together traditional Santa Fe warmth, single-level living, generous acreage, three garage spaces, and uncommon functionality.
Hondo Hills, located between Hyde Park Road and the Santa Fe National Forest boundary, is a hillside and residential Santa Fe Foothills neighborhood with winding lanes and big-sky views. The feel centers around the Hyde Park Road corridor near the Dale Ball Trails trailheads, where hikers, cyclists, and dog-walkers set the daily rhythm. Architecture leans toward adobe-inspired forms, wood-and-stone mountain homes, and contemporary builds that follow the terrain. The landscape reads as piñon-juniper foothills with arroyos and dark night skies. Cultural touchstones nearby include the Santa Fe Opera, SITE Santa Fe, and the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. Days often track from trail time to gallery time, with downtown’s plazas and museums a short drive away.
