Contemporary Serenity with Panoramic Mountain Views in Vista Redonda: This gated sanctuary sits on 5.08 acres in the sought-after Vista Redonda neighborhood which is perched high on its own mesa. 54 Paseo Encantado offers awe-inspiring vistas of both the rugged Sangre de Cristo range to the east and the dramatic Jemez Mountains to the west--from sunrise to sunset, the views are nothing short of breathtaking.This architect designed 4-bedroom, 3-bath home spans 3,489 square feet and reflects a timeless contemporary design that complements its natural surroundings. With only three owners since its construction in 1973, it retains much of its original character and charm and was carefully maintained and thoughtfully preserved for over 21 years by the current owners. The layout is both functional and inviting. The main level features grand living and dining spaces that flow naturally to multiple outdoor living areas, including a deep covered portal ideal for al fresco dining. Just a few steps above the main floor is the spacious primary suite which includes a second living room with kiva fireplace and bar--perfect for quiet evenings or morning coffee with a view. Below the main level are three guest bedrooms and two baths, creating separation and privacy for family or visitors.The property includes a winding gravel drive, a two-car garage connected to the covered portal, mature native landscaping and ample flat buildable space should one wish to add a casita, guest house, or studio.A large solar array, installed in 2019, brings an added layer of energy efficiency to the property. Located just minutes from the Santa Fe National Forest, Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado, the Santa Fe Opera, Tesuque Village Market and approximately 15 minutes to all the cultural amenities of downtown Santa Fe, this rare offering in Vista Redonda is a private retreat with enduring style and soul.
The picturesque, incorporated village of Tesuque enjoys a rural feel (there are still horse properties here) and is only five minutes north of Santa Fe, just beyond Bishop’s Lodge.
