Designed by John LeMaster, built by Lockwood Construction, and located mere minutes from the Plaza on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Los Nidos enclave of Estancia Primera, this 3-bedroom 2-bath home is light and bright with many skylights, wonderful large windows, and beautiful wood doors. Entering through a private front courtyard with a burbling stone fountain, you are welcomed into the front entry and main living spaces with high ceilings, vigas and beams, gorgeous diamond plaster walls, and tile floors. The living room features a kiva fireplace and opens to a private flagstone portal and patio for relaxation and sunset views. The dining area is open to the kitchen, so the cook is part of it all, and a unique Murano glass chandelier elegantly illuminates the dining room. Great cook's kitchen with plenty of counter space, storage, and a walk-in pantry. There is ample bedroom separation with the primary suite on the west side of the house, also opening to the patio. The primary suite is a lovely sanctuary with a walk-in closet, generous storage, and a large en suite bathroom complete with a jacuzzi tub, two sinks, and a large shower. On the other side of the house is a guest bedroom with direct access to an additional full bath. The third bedroom makes a perfect office, TV room, or studio space. The attached two-car garage is just 4 steps up from the house, which is otherwise all on one level. This unique neighborhood has a walking path to the Plaza (~20 min), a clubhouse, outdoor pool, and tennis and racquetball courts included in a nominal HOA fee. Super handy to ski basin, Dale Ball trails, and 10,000 Waves! This home shines with pride of ownership and loving care!
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.
