Property Description

A One-of-a-Kind Santa Fe–Inspired Adobe Retreat This extraordinary Santa Fe–inspired adobe home is a true work of art, custom designed and meticulously crafted, with features in two published books. Perched atop a gentle knoll on a secluded three-acre parcel bordering protected open space, the property offers exceptional privacy and breathtaking 360-degree views of rolling hills extending toward the majestic South San Juan Mountains. Inspired by the rich character of the Southwest and the beauty of the surrounding subalpine landscape, the home showcases a remarkable blend of artistry, cultural influences, and natural materials. Handcrafted tile pictographs, designed by the homeowner and created by Belvedere Arts, create a captivating focal point around the fireplace, seamlessly uniting artistic expression with architectural design. Throughout the interior, thoughtful details and exceptional craftsmanship create an atmosphere that is both refined and inviting. Custom built-in bookcases, cabinetry, and fireside benches bring warmth and functionality to the living spaces, while rich acacia hardwood floors complement the home's earthy palette. High-end stainless steel appliances provide modern convenience while preserving the property's distinctive Southwestern character. A dramatic, privately commissioned spiral staircase serves as the home's signature architectural feature. Designed by the homeowner and handcrafted by a skilled woodworker around a natural ponderosa pine trunk, this remarkable creation brings organic beauty and sculptural elegance to the interior. Natural light filters through the space, illuminating the staircase and drawing the eye upward to a loft office and crow's nest, where inspiring views of the surrounding landscape create an exceptional setting for work, reflection, or creative pursuits. Globally inspired artwork throughout the home reflects the owners' appreciation for travel, culture, and artistic expression, while maintaining a harmonious connection to the natural environment. Upstairs, a Kiva-style stucco fireplace continues the home's distinctive architectural theme, adding warmth, texture, and a sense of cohesion. Furnishings are negotiable, offering the opportunity to preserve the home's curated aesthetic. The surrounding land is equally compelling. Bordering protected open space, the property offers a rare connection to the rhythms of the natural world, with a known deer and elk migration route following the eastern edge of the meadow. A second knoll is thoughtfully appointed with a barn and loafing shed, creating a functional equestrian setup. Fenced pasture provides ample grazing space, completing the property's distinctive combination of privacy, natural beauty, and equestrian amenities. More than a residence, this is a deeply personal expression of art, architecture, and place—a home shaped by imagination, craftsmanship, and a profound appreciation for its surroundings. Rarely does a property so seamlessly unite Southwestern character, globally inspired design, equestrian amenities, and extraordinary natural vistas. An exceptional opportunity to experience a truly individual vision of serene, artful living in an unforgettable setting.
