117 La Ventana , Santa Fe, NM 87508(Santa Fe County)

This exclusive gated estate, designed by the renowned architect John Klee, is a late twentieth century expression of the Santa Fe aesthetic in a contemporary design, combining elements of Frank Lloyd Wright with pueblo architectural influences. This home is one of approximately two dozen properties offered for sale in Santa Fe every year that falls within the five-by-five rule: a property within a five-mile radius of the Santa Fe Plaza which also offers five or more acres of space, with the potential for further improvements or structures to suit the new owner. Santa Fe's highly sought after estate homes meeting the above criteria are close enough to routinely participate in activities on the Plaza, while still retaining the estate feel of exclusivity, luxury, solitude, and privacy, usually with exceptional views as an added benefit. This property offers all of these advantages and more on 6.3 very private acres in the gated Arroyo Hondo Vistas community. This extensively remodeled home incorporates a passive solar design with new Anderson doors and windows throughout. It also features new Lennox heat pumps, and new plumbing, including all supply lines, drains, and the septic system. All three bathrooms were recently remodeled and incorporate Italian tile; Kohler-designed cabinetry, Kohler plumbing fixtures, and Kohler-lighted mirrors. The fully remodeled Chef's kitchen features stainless steel appliances, KraftMaid cabinetry, quartz countertops, and other premium upgrades too numerous to mention. It also features a spacious 5-foot by 12-foot island with two full-size Franke sinks and Hans Groehe faucets, perfectly configured for large-scale entertaining. The kitchen and pantry cabinets feature a subtle distressed finish that complements the home's Spanish and Italian tile accents. This masterfully designed property incorporates the concept of a core living area in the center of the house and all other rooms branching into two separate wings of flexible space that can serve as offices, bedrooms, or studio space. The core living area contains the entry and living room with a wood-burning fireplace attached to the kitchen and dining areas and comprises nearly 1600 square feet of magnificent, light-filled living space. The kitchen area also features coffee-house style seating and provides unobstructed views both indoors and outdoors, with easy traffic flow throughout the space. The property offers spectacular, unobstructed mountain views, a paved driveway and paved streets, underground utilities, and a community water system. A unique offering in the luxury market segment, this property provides nearly two acres of relatively flat space that can be used for adding a guest house, supplemental garage, tennis court, swimming pool, or equestrian facilities. The exterior landscape includes a 48-inch Florentine pizza oven that also serves as a fireplace feature in the winter months. The one-of-a-kind property, which includes over one hundred unique species of cacti and yucca, has been thoroughly groomed to meet Santa Fe County fire protection standards. Convenient amenities include less than a 5-minute drive to restaurants, shopping, and medical facilities, including Harry's Roadhouse, El Gancho Fitness Center, Cafe Fina, and Christus St. Vincent. This exquisite estate offers a rare and exciting opportunity to experience Santa Fe living at its absolute finest!
