One of the first homes to be built in this fascinating compound known as the Llano Adobe Compound, was built partially over the site of a one time iconic Santa Fe pub and is adjacent to an old farmhouse. The developer and builder, Phill Hawse, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin West, built these homes using traditional materials and methods to recreate the style and feel of a bygone era of adobe built homes with simple interiors, handcrafted wooden doors, windows and cabinets, brick floors, tree trunk roof supports (vigas) and flagstone courtyards. This sweet 2 bedroom, 2 bath home has been updated with a newer kitchen, bathrooms and plumbing, but otherwise retains much of the charm and spirit of Phill. He recently personally gave the seller original construction photographs that will be given to the next owner. The open plan kitchen and living room are illuminated with a 'wall washer' skylight that runs the width of the house along the back wall providing ample natural light. The fireplace in the living room makes for cozy evenings around the hearth. The entry courtyard charms with garden planters, adobe walls, a unique entry gate and shade from towering elms. Outside is the main parking space directly accessible off E. Palace. 2 back gates also access the property from the nearby secondary parking reached by a winding flagstone pathway. 5 year old brie roof with transferable warranty. Downtown Santa Fe and the iconic Canyon Road are just a short distance from this romantic hideaway.
The Northeast of Santa Fe, within city limits, combines the pleasures of quiet living with the conveniences of location. On every tree-lined street are examples of newer, award-winning architecture and well-established, older adobes. In addition to the famous Plaza, this area includes all the land reaching up to the Jemez and the Sandias.
