This quiet and serene 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom home in Canada de Los Alamos house is perched high on a 5-acre lot overlooking a green valley of ponderosa pines and juniper to Cerros Negros peak in the distance. Step into the charming 1,138 square feet home defined by the sweet living room and its welcoming fireplace. From the living room, walk down into a warm and bright sun room perfect for reading a book or starting a day's work. With attic space and a standalone shed, there is ample room for storage. The pitched roof is furnished with a solar hot water panel to assist hot water production. This property emanates peace as the wind hums through the forest around, and being only 25 minutes from the Plaza, a new owner will get their own mountain retreat close to National Forest trails with easy access to the city's amenities.
As the Old Santa Fe Trail winds north, these lovely, heavily-forested communities run alongside. Located in the foothills of the Sangres, the lower elevations provide rolling hills of pinon and juniper with the high-elevation nestled in mountainous terrain. All have wonderful views of the Sandias and famous Santa Fe sunsets. Most lots start at 2.5 acres and some are over ten.
