Quintessential Canyon Road Living

In the heart of it all but above the hubbub of restaurants and galleries along the Canyon Road, this remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath, 2073 s/f residence with second floor den and a view deck that overlooks the neighboring treetops and nearby mountains shines.

From the moment you step into the gated front courtyard you are transported into a lush world. This outdoor space, with rocked pathway, kiva fireplace and seemingly “wild-with-intention” plantings sets the tone for the entire home.

A grand living room overlooking the garden welcomes you. A handsome fireplace, wood floors and coved ceilings with vigas grace this room. The stylish use of low walls and standing vigas distinguish the living room from the dining/family room. Underfoot is wood flooring, the exterior walls are adobe and large windows offer natural light.

Beyond is a wonderful kitchen with room for informal dining. Overhead are vigas and a rough-hewn wood ceiling. Underfoot is Saltillo tile flooring. Appliances are stainless steel; a 4-burner cook-top and oven hood, double wall ovens and refrigerator. Wonderful cabinetry offers great storage and track lighting illuminates the space. There is a pantry in the kitchen and just footsteps away is a large laundry/storage room that is ideal for keeping wine, additional dishes and even bicycles.

Two bedrooms including a grand master suite with tall ceilings, kiva fireplace, tile floors and tall windows with wood shutters are located on the main level of the residence. The master includes a sitting room, bath with step-in shower and closet. For comfort in the summer, it is air-conditioned.
The guest bedroom is replete with a private re-modeled bath with shower and closet area. Here too you will find tile floors, wood ceilings with vigas and the genuine feel of Santa Fe.

Upstairs, the office/den and the compelling view deck with planters perched on the adjacent roof offers vistas of the Canyon Road neighborhood and mountains beyond. And, at the front of the house and on the property, are 2 off-street parking spaces.

With an excellent short-term rental history, the home also offers income potential for those who seek it.

The history of the property and surrounding area is rich. Originally part of the Rodriguez family’s 55 acre farm, part of the house may date to the late 1800’s. Over time the house has had many lives; as a family home, a neighborhood bodega and an art gallery. Today it has been lovingly restored with a deep respect for its origins.

In an outstanding location, it is authentic, elegant and quintessential Canyon Road living at its best.
