16 Hubbard Hill

Self-Reliant Luxury, 30 Minutes from Santa Fe Thirty minutes from the galleries, restaurants and culture of Santa Fe, yet worlds apart, 16 Hubbard Hill is a private Northern New Mexico estate where exceptional craftsmanship, creative space and a more independent way of living come together. Set on nearly four acres near the Pecos River and bordering more than 1,000 acres of Benedictine Monastery land, the property enjoys an extraordinary sense of privacy and open space, with serene Monastery Lake just moments away. Solar power with substantial battery backup, thoughtful water and irrigation infrastructure, and a greenhouse with hydroponic growing capability provide an unusual degree of self reliance without compromising comfort. Originally created as the personal residence of acclaimed Northern New Mexico builder Richard Roybal, the approximately 8,000 square foot compound embodies the character and craftsmanship of the region. Vigas, latillas, stone, wood, tile and handcrafted details create a warm, authentic sense of place, while generous windows and outdoor spaces connect the home to its natural surroundings. The main residence offers generous living and entertaining spaces, multiple fireplaces and beautifully crafted interiors designed for both gathering and retreat. A separate 2 bed guest house provides comfortable accommodations for visitors, extended family or income potential. One of the property’s most distinctive features is its substantial south facing studio. With expansive glass doors and abundant natural light, the space offers remarkable flexibility as an artist’s studio, gallery, workshop, collector’s space or creative headquarters. For an artist, designer, photographer, writer or maker, the combination of residence and dedicated studio is particularly compelling. The estate’s productive landscape includes mature fruit trees, extensive berry plantings and established gardens, supported by automated ventilation and irrigation systems. The greenhouse adds another dimension to the property, creating an opportunity to grow throughout the seasons. The result is much more than a conventional luxury residence. It is a beautifully crafted home with private guest accommodations, an exceptional creative studio, productive grounds and modern infrastructure, all within easy reach of Santa Fe. For those seeking privacy, authenticity and a different way of living in Northern New Mexico, 16 Hubbard Hill offers the freedom of space and the ability to live beautifully and more independently, just 30 minutes from Santa Fe.
