Nestled on 1.58 acres just off the iconic Old Santa Fe Trail, this custom-built Hacienda-style villa combines timeless Spanish and Southwestern design with extraordinary craftsmanship. Built in 1995, the property offers a rare blend of elegance, authenticity, and comfort. From the moment you arrive, the property enchants with its custom double Zaguan doors that open into a grand courtyard--a hallmark of traditional Spanish and Hispanic architecture. The courtyard features a covered portal with vigas and brick flooring, lush lawn, gardens, and a serene sitting area with mountain views. This gracious space connects the main residence and guesthouse, creating an intimate yet expansive compound. Inside, exquisite details abound: five fireplaces, plaster walls, brick, tile, wood floors, and raised ceilings with tongue-and-groove and hand-carved beams. The living room, with soaring beamed ceilings, opens to a vast covered terrace showcasing sweeping mountain vistas. The formal dining room--also with its tall beamed ceiling and double doors to the terrace--connects to a butler's pantry and flows into the kitchen with walk-in pantry, rebuilt Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a charming breakfast room anchored by a kiva fireplace and a private garden patio. Additional highlights include a handsome study with fireplace and built-ins, and a primary suite with a kiva fireplace, two walk-in closets, spa-like bath, and a private patio with mountain views. Each bedroom features vigas, and windows bear unique touches like flagstone sills. The guesthouse echoes the charm of the main residence with its own vigas, fireplace, and portal. Enhancements include a new roof (April 2025) with transferable warranty, new 73-gallon water heater, and three new windows in the primary bedroom. Every detail of this estate reflects authenticity and artistry--rarely does a property of this character and scale become available. 1017 Foothills Trail is more than a home--it's a Santa Fe legacy to be cherished.

Hosting a mix of multi-generational families and newcomers, the homes, often hidden behind high walls and accessed by narrow, dirt lanes, recall the city’s early history and lend Santa Fe a unique heritage.
