About 1256 Vallecita Drive
Perched high on a serene hilltop with commanding views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, this Santa Fe-style custom estate offers a masterful blend of artistry, comfort, and Southwestern soul. Just minutes from the historic Plaza yet nestled in a private enclave on a full acre, this 4,300-square-foot sanctuary embodies the magic of Northern New Mexico living. Step inside to sun-drenched interiors where massive windows frame mountain vistas. The dining room, with stenciled beams and a corner Kiva fireplace, is perfect for cozy evenings or elegant entertaining. The living room impresses with fan-shaped vigas, a dramatic fireplace, and custom mantle, flowing into a spacious kitchen with granite counters, island, gas stove, copper hood, skylights, and walk-in pantry. Two luxurious Primary Suites ensure privacy. The main-level suite includes a coved ceiling, updated bath, private den, and French doors to a tranquil patio. Upstairs, a curved staircase leads to the second suite with Kiva fireplace, private deck, and bridge walkway to a spectacular 75-foot lap pool. Perfect for gatherings, the entertainment room — once home to two grand pianos — opens to the front portal. A charming casita above the two-car garage adds versatility with sleeping space for five, full bath, closet, kitchenette, private patio, and separate entrance. Blending Santa Fe craftsmanship, modern updates, and breathtaking surroundings, this home is more than a residence — it is a living work of art and a rare opportunity to own a piece of Santa Fe’s soul.
