One of Santa Fe’s most extraordinary legacy properties, this private Tesuque estate encompasses more than 51 acres bordering the Santa Fe National Forest, yet is only seven minutes from the historic Plaza. Beyond private gates, a winding paved drive passes the adobe stable, riding arena, turnout and newly resurfaced tennis court before arriving at the main residence and guest house. Designed by acclaimed architect Steve Robinson, the 7,032-square-foot adobe main residence offers three bedrooms and four bathrooms, with exceptional craftsmanship evident throughout. Antique beams, Spanish Colonial doors, handmade chandeliers, lighted nichos and custom plasterwork created from local earth and mica lend warmth and authenticity to the interiors. Generous living and entertaining spaces include a dedicated library, refrigerated wine cellar, formal and informal dining areas, and a beautifully appointed kitchen with separate food and china pantries. Outdoor living is equally remarkable, with an expansive kitchen and dining area, an in-ground spa and a natural-style swimming pool positioned against sweeping views of the Jemez Mountains. The 2,864-square-foot adobe guest house provides two bedrooms, two bathrooms and an office, offering guests privacy and comfort within the estate. Equestrian amenities include a four-stall adobe barn with in-floor radiant heat and a three-quarter bathroom, riding arena, turnout and access to miles of surrounding trails. Thoughtfully enhanced during the current ownership, the estate has been carefully elevated while preserving the architectural integrity, timeless character and extraordinary sense of place that make it so significant.
