Hillside Hacienda - Relax in the Sangre de Christo Foothills -

** NEW - Air Conditioning, Coffee/Wet Bar, Double Vanity in Master Bath **
Located less than 2 miles from the famous Santa Fe Plaza, this beautifully appointed, 3,500 square foot home with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms in the foothills above Santa Fe is perfect for your large group. This spacious near North East residence offers a lot of living space, views and a very private setting in one of Santa Fe's most desirable locations. There is a beautiful walk to the nearby Ft. Marcy park and then on to the plaza in just 10-15 minutes (or just hop in your car and be there in 5 minutes). The home has picturesque views of the hillsides as well as the spectacular New Mexican sunrise and most of the rooms are south facing into the arroyo for maximum privacy.

This home has two en suite master bedrooms to easily accommodate your large groups and 3,500 square feet of luxurious living space for your vacation enjoyment. This home is tastefully furnished with carefully collected art and antiques. The homeowners lived overseas and travelled extensively for years, so this home is furnished with furniture and art from North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Australia and Africa.

There is maid service throughout the year to maintain the property to the highest of standards. The bedrooms all have high quality beds and bedding – and the house has four king size beds and two twin beds. In addition, the owner can also provide roll away beds and/or twin air mattresses upon request at an additional fee. (All additional sleeping options need to be arranged in advance).

This property has free wireless internet (Comcast Xfinity Blast 300 Mbps with an Orbi mesh router) so that you can keep in touch with the outside world while you try to detach and relax in Santa Fe.

MAIN LEVEL: The main floor you walk in on is the upstairs floor. It is bright and cheery, with light radiating from windows in the living room, dining room and kitchen. There are 10-foot-tall ceilings with a beautiful wooden beamed ceiling. You can walk out French doors onto a generous full-length balcony along the living room and back of the house that overlooks an arroyo, with great Sandia vistas. There is a beautiful corner fireplace in the living room that is perfect for gathering around to warm up at the end of the day. The entire main floor has new Saltillo tile floors and high-quality rugs.

The main/upstairs level has a cozy kitchen as well as an large open-concept living and dining room. The antique New Mexican dining table seats 8 people and an additional table/chairs are available if arranged in advance for larger parties. The master bedroom (BR1 in the photos) with en suite bathroom is upstairs along with the guest bedroom (BR2 in the photos) and another full bath. The laundry room is tucked away in a corner on the main floor. There is a large flat-screen smart TV in the living room as well as another smart tv in BR2.

Kitchen: The cozy furnished kitchen adjoins the living area, perfect for relaxing and entertaining, with service for up to 12 people. There is virtually every imaginable appliance and serving dish and stemware that we utilize when entertaining. Wine glasses and barware are provided in the kitchen and also in the red Chinese cabinet next to the dining table.

The den has leather chairs and a sofa, a large flat screen smart TV, games, puzzles, books, and a new foosball table. There are two doors downstairs that lead to the large flagstone patio. Here you will find a propane BBQ grill, a dining table that seats 8 people as well as additional tables and chairs to accommodate large groups. This is a great place to enjoy coffee while you watch the sun rise or, perhaps, a glass of wine to wind down at the end of the day.

The 2nd en suite master king bedroom is downstairs (BR3 in the photos) and this bathroom has a Talavera tiled walk-in shower. BR3 also has walk out access to the flagstone patio. There is another bedroom with a king bed (BR4 in the photos) and a bedroom with a pair of twin beds (BR5 in the photos) that share the remaining bathroom, which has a double vanity, a walk-in shower and a jacuzzi tub.

Family multi purpose trip
My wife, 2 teen kids, sister and mom stayed 4 nights. Some of us skied and some did spa/shopping/city tour stuff. Driving to city and mountain activities was perfect - basically either 1 right or left turn to get to either city (2 mins) or mountains (3 mins to hiking, 30 to ski area) - biking to town would work, walking would be pretty far, but neither of these were important to us. Terrific neighborhood - private, quiet, scenic. Views from decks and porches are great - birds, deer, sunsets. The house and amenities are excellent. My wife and kids stayed in 3 rooms on lower level. My sister and mom stayed on main level in 2 rooms. Kitchen is well supplied and easy to use. Coffee bar is handy with everything we needed for grinding and brewing, but pods could also be used. We are ready to book again any season for any purpose.

Family Christmas
This home was the best VRBO our family has ever stayed in. The more rural setting was enjoyable, and the easy drive to Old town was perfect. Lovely furnishings adorned every room. The kitchen had all the essentials, plus many extras for meal preparations and cocktails. Thank you for being exceptional hosts!

Great family spot close to Ski Santa Fe!
Mine and my sister’s families thoroughly enjoyed this cute two-story adobe just off Hyde Park Road and near Ski Santa Fe! The kids (ages 13-26) found the downstairs perfect for hanging out with plenty of beds for our party of 10. The foosball table was a hit! The kitchen was well-stocked, making cooking a breeze. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of pillows, blankets and towels. We had plenty of parking for our three vehicles. We split our time between Santa Fe Plaza, the Railyard District, and Canyon Road, while the young adults hit the ski slopes — perfect!

About the host

Hosted by John & Paige

Host profile image
We were expats living overseas for over 8 years in Japan, South Korea and England. We loved to travel any chance we got and we collected interesting furniture, art and artifacts during our travels and have been able to use them in this fabulous house.

We now live in Santa Fe full time and once we made that jump, we never looked back. We love it here and know that you will, too!

Why they chose this property

We spent many a vacation in Santa Fe - hiking, skiing, whitewater rafting, riding horses, shopping and attending musical events. We have always loved our times in Santa Fe and the memories stayed with us. When it came time to choose a vacation home, we immediately chose Santa Fe to start our search.

What makes this property unique

This home had the perfect size, perfect location and perfect 'feel' for our family. It is on 1.2 acres with hillside views, less than 2 miles to the Plaza, hiking trails are less than 2 miles away and snowskiing/snowboarding is only 13 miles away.

It was carefully renovated over the last year and now we just love it. The layout is awesome - main floor (upstairs) has 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths along with a living room, dining room, kitchen and utility room. You can walk out onto the balcony to enjoy the sunrise views. The downstairs has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms along with another living area. There are 2 doors that lead outside to the flagstone patio with a dining table that seats 8 as well as additional seating and tables to accommodate 6 more people.

This floorplan is great when the kids bring friends or another family joins us for vacation - there are 2 ensuite master bedrooms and everybody has their own space.
