Custom-built by its one and only owner, this thoughtfully designed Santa Fe home offers privacy, efficiency, and a deep connection to nature on approximately 2.48 acres with forest views and hiking access right out the back door—yet a mere 15-MIN drive to the Santa Fe Plaza.

The home was intentionally designed for passive solar living and also features solar panels that have eliminated electric bills since being installed, delivering comfort with long-term efficiency. Major value upgrades are already complete, including a brand new TPO roof, new skylights, and a new Navien dual heating system—the big-ticket improvements buyers are relieved to have behind them.

Outdoor living is enhanced by a thoughtfully designed water feature that feeds into a small pond, creating a soothing backdrop enjoyed from both the covered patio and the deck off the primary bedroom, all overlooking a serene forest setting. Inside, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,261 square feet of living space, including a welcoming living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a dining room, kitchen with breakfast nook, and a standout sunroom that previously housed a hot tub—a bright, plant-friendly space ideal for relaxing or reimagining.

The sellers observed over 50 species of birds throughout the year, underscoring the home’s connection to its surroundings. Quiet, private, and thoughtfully built, this is a property where the fundamentals are done—leaving the next owner free to personalize and make it their own.
