HUGE VIEWS and tons of privacy from this Jim Hayes custom built home that sits on a very secluded 3.7 acre lot in the foothills. The subdivision, Old Pecos Trail Estates, is a gated community with reasonable covenants. The floor plan is very flexible with tons of Santa Fe style, hand hewn vigas, kiva fireplaces, skylights and saltillo tiles. Views from every window and door...a completely separate (attached) artist studio or den area that is flooded with north eastern light, high ceilings, operable skylights, 2 sinks with access to the wrap around deck area. The main living room offers huge views, a kiva fireplace, high ceilings with vigas and latillas and french doors to the deck. Great bedroom separation, the primary bedroom/bath area is on the main floor, the additional bedrooms are downstairs, each with its own 'sitting' room or office space with access to the outdoor areas. The downstairs offers additional heated storage ( approx 330 sq ft) with built in art (painting) storage and a large water holding tank. The garage is oversized, heated, has storage and a large work area. The wrap-around deck creates wonderful outdoor living spaces with spectacular sunset and city light views.
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.
