About 234 Cerrito De Baca
Heart-stopping views and truly astonishing vistas define this exceptional 2007 custom home set on 5+ private acres, including its own hoodoo rock formation. Built with highly insulated R-32 Rastra construction, this residence offers a rare blend of efficiency, comfort, and luxury just 13 minutes south of Ojo Caliente Hot Springs, 35 minutes to Los Alamos, 45 minutes to the Santa Fe Plaza, and an hour to Taos. A 5-zone ductless mini-split system added in 2024 provides year-round comfort. Located within the gated community of Rio Ojo Caliente, this home welcomes you with a covered portal entry and a hand-carved arched door. Inside, the grand living room features diamond-finish plaster walls, exposed wooden beams, and distinctive architectural details. The home has also benefited from recent stucco maintenance, full canales repair, sealing, and repainting, a freshly re-sealed roof in 2026 with warranty, and septic system servicing completed. Designed for comfort and privacy, the home offers excellent bedroom separation. The spacious primary suite opens to a wraparound covered composite deck portal with sweeping views of the Ojo Caliente River Valley, cottonwoods, Sierra Negra, Black Mesa, and the Pajarito ski area. The en-suite bath includes dual walk-in closets, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. The kitchen flows to the rear portal through French doors, ideal for entertaining or enjoying New Mexico sunsets. Both front and rear portals feature metal roofing added in 2023, offering 815 square feet of covered outdoor living. Additional highlights include 2 living areas, a formal dining room, oversized heated garage with two storage closets, and a 30-amp RV connection. The driveway was improved with new base course and grading in 2025. Private and quiet yet less than an hour from the restaurants, galleries, and culture of Santa Fe and Taos, with nearby hiking, biking, fishing, rafting and wildlife viewing.
