About this property

Award Winning Architecture with Amazing Views

Located on a hilltop overlooking Santa Fe, New Mexico.

This unique home was designed by Charles F. Johnson, one of the Top 100 Architects in the world (according to Architectural Digest). This home is a 3,400 sq.ft. living sculpture. Based on a circlular design this double adobe home offers a rare mix of sophistication, sensuality and organic livability. What do we mean by livability? A cozy 'Kiva' style theater room with state of the art Theater-Entertainment center, a main fireplace with towering five foot flames in an arched sculpture with breathtaking elegance, and each room has unique wooden ceiling treatments from weathered aspen to Indian style pine lattias, amazing views of both mountains and city lights from inside and outside on the grand terrace, an outdoor spa/hot tub in a private natural setting with the same amazing views, dramatic indoor lighting, plus much, much more. . . . Oh yeah, and an elevator to the lower garage floor making the home very accessible to all ages (and just plain fun).

All this tucked into a very private hillside community just 1 mile north of one of the worlds most popular tourist destinations, Santa Fe's Historic Plaza district, famous for it's beauty, shopping, restaurants, art galleries and historic old world charm.

The Neighborhood
Beautiful hillside neighborhood, close to everything, yet very intimate. A long private drive-way and top-of-the-hill location make you feel far away from city life while just minutes away from the action. Pinon, Aspen, and Juniper trees all around the property,creating a private an oasis in the high-desert mountains.
Minimum age requirement of primary lender 25years
The home is located in a secluded area off the road and as such offers added security and privacy.
Please note: there is a "ring door bell" on the front door which does have audio/video capability for the added security of the home and our guests.

Sound System
The sound system can be operated most easily with the HEOS App. For your convenience, you may want to download the app prior to you arrival and become familiar with it's use. If you have any questions, we are happy to help.

Hot Tub
As is common practice with spa use, please shower before use to remove dirt and excess oil or lotions.
Please make sure all 4 latches are opened before you open the hot tub covers.
There is a light weight green solar cover over the regular hot tub cover. This must be folder back over the "cover lifter" first before folding the regular cover over the lifter. Please always replace the cover along with the solar cover after every use.
Thank you for reading. Please let us know if you have any questions or need anything during your stay.

Wonderful stay

The house is lovely, with very interesting architecture. The patio has great views and is a wonderful place for coffee or meals.The house has two nice bedrooms on opposite sides of the house, and a large communal living room where we spend most of the time. The kitchen was well-stocked and functional. We enjoyed using the elevator to bring groceries and luggage from the garage.David was very kind and responsive to any questions we had during our stay, and generally a pleasure to communicate with.

Better than pictures

This property is incredible. If you are looking for a quiet spot not *on* the square, but a short drive away - there likely isn’t a better spot. The house is stunning and has everything you need to cook, entertain, and relax. This is probably the first rental I’ve stayed at with a decanter! We spent some time just admiring the art around the home.The host was attentive as well, and I can’t thank them enough for allowing us to stay at such a lovely home.

True gem

what a wonderful home. Unique architecture, antique furnishings and fine artwork and decor made this a memorable stay. Conveniently located close to downtown but in a quiet neighborhood, and fully equipped with everything needed for our stay, this property stood out among the many we stayed at during a recent cross-country road trip. Highly recommended.

Beautiful home in Santa fe

House was gorgeous, private and quiet with truly stunning views, photos did not do it justice. It felt secluded while still being a very short drive to downtown. house had a great layout for us, our in laws and toddler, with lots of room to run about. Plenty of guidance in the home witj clear instruction on everything from lights to the remote. Wish we had more time in Santa Fe to stay longer here.

Close to everything, superb home!

This unique home has everything anyone needs to make their vacation special and memorable. We chose to stay in the guest bedroom, which has views of Santa Fe from its’ elevated location. Sleep with the shades up to enjoy the night lights and spectacular sunrises. There’s also an elevator from the garage level up to the main floor…very convenient for getting the groceries in. This is just a spectacular home, you won’t find a cooler place in Santa Fe and the owner is a great guy. Thanks, David.

Excellent experience

The house is gorgeous! Views of the mountains from almost every room. Beautiful indoors and outdoors. We were 4 adults and enjoying reading in the beautiful spaces, and enjoying all the art in the house. Comfy beds. The house had everything we needed. The host was very nice responding to my emails. We hope to go back next time in Santa Fe!

A Must-Stay in Santa Fe

This property was exactly what we were looking for during our trip to Santa Fe. Such a unique house, amazing views, and so close to downtown while still feeling so removed from everything. David was a perfect host and we had a great stay.

Positive Experience Santa Fe

Five star house with every amenity. House overlooks Santa Fe with 180 degree plus views. The ability to be at the plaza in minutes while surrounded by total privacy with peace and quiet is an amazing find. It is a unique architectural gem with every modern convenience. You will never want to leave…so book as long as possible!

Nothing short of amazing

We could not have picked a better place to stay for our trip to Santa Fe. I stayed at this home with my husband and MIL for 3 nights at the end of April. We all agreed this home was the highlight of our trip. Everything is so thoughtfully done from the furnishings to the decor to the amenities provided. The views day and night are spectacular. We spent a lot of time on the patio just breathing in the desert air and enjoying the view as birds soared all above and deer rested below under the mesquite brush. The living and dining areas provided several different spots to comfortably gather for conversation while the 2 bedrooms separated on each end of the home provided privacy when needed. The home was immaculately clean and the owner was kind to check in to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Next time we're in SF we will absolutely be staying here again.

Hard to believe, but it's real

This place is incredible. The views from the patio alone are worth the stay. The house is an architectural wonder. Stunning to look at, amazing to stay in. There's a hot tub on the side of the hill, an elevator for those with mobility issues, two garage parking spaces, comfortable bedrooms, a very cozy TV room/ lounge, a kitchen with a huge domed skylight, and tons of giant windows looking out at the mountains and city below. Sunrises are nice, and sunsets are pretty glorious. It's also a very short drive to whatever you want to do in Santa Fe. We also drove to Taos and Albuquerque, and the Puye Cliff dwellings. All very makable distances. Overall, it's probably the most remarkable place I've ever stayed at in my extensive travels.

Family trip

My husband and I brought our two sons, ages 23 and 20 to visit my dad, (their grandpa), who is in an assisted living facility in Santa Fe. The home is absolutely amazing and the views are stunning. My youngest son's first comment upon arriving at the house was "it looks like we are on Tattooine!" We enjoyed using the binoculars at night to view the brilliant night sky. We even brought dad over to the house and the elevator made it easy for him to join us for a day of visiting and playing cards. The acoustic effects sitting at the dining table under the dome were fun to play with as well. We had a great trip and a comfortable stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Santa Fe Christmas with Mom

During our visit, we had a big snow storm which caused us to be 'snowed in' for a day. Our Host David, was very concerned and checked on us via phone and text nearly every day. He was so attentive, he arranged for some guys to come dig us out and throw down some sand. The views are amazing! I would visit again.
