Exclusive Executive Estate on 6.3 Acres in Gated Arroyo Hondo Vistas - Designed by the renowned Southwest architect John Klee, this historically significant architectural masterpiece contains elements of Frank Lloyd Wright, bringing the feeling of being outdoors inside, and the feeling of compression and release as one moves into and through this one-of-a-kind property. In keeping with Klee's design philosophy, this spectacular 4,629 square foot home is optimally sited on a 6.3-acre Lot to achieve the most energy-efficient embodiment, while also creating magnificent spaces bathed in an abundance of natural daylight. The arc across the north wall of the structure was meant to evoke Chaco Canyon and maximize solar gain, taking full advantage of its passive solar design. This masterfully designed property is all about the functional use of interior spaces. The spaces are large, and each room provides a highly flexible and functional creative, living, or working space. Hence, the home is ideal for telecommuters, multi-generational living, and all types of creative expression. With an optional fourth bedroom or three bedrooms plus a spacious art or exercise studio, flexible interior space is paramount. The residence was built on two (2) acres of nearly flat terrain which has been thoughtfully landscaped to ensure easy automobile access to every level of the home. Located in the coveted and gated Arroyo Hondo Vistas Community, this extraordinary "soft" contemporary estate boasts spectacular unobstructed views of the Sandia, Manzano, and Jemez Mountain ranges. Expansive outdoor spaces provide plenty of room for outdoor living and entertaining, including star gazing and enjoying breathtaking Santa Fe sunsets! The 48" Florentine Pizza Oven makes large-scale entertaining both fun and effortless. The house has been totally renovated since 2021, including all new Anderson windows and doors throughout; an entirely new and expanded kitchen with coffee-house seating; three fully remodeled bathrooms featuring Kohler fixtures; two Lennox heat pump systems; replacement of all plumbing supply lines; new paint throughout; and a new septic tank. Just one mile from the Santa Fe City limits and only a 12-minute drive to the historic Santa Fe Plaza, the exclusive Arroyo Hondo Vistas community features paved roads, underground utilities, and a community water system. Less than a 5-minute drive to restaurants, shopping, and medical facilities, including Christus St. Vincent, Harry's Roadhouse, El Gancho Fitness Center, and Caf Fina. This exquisite estate offers a rare and exciting opportunity to experience Santa Fe living at its finest. This is a definite must-see property!
