194 Arroyo Hondo

15 minutes from downtown Santa Fe in the pastoral Arroyo Hondo neighborhood, 194 Arroyo Hondo Trail is an exceptional 5.8 acre estate with a beautifully renovated adobe main house and remarkable 1536 sq ft detached guesthouse. Each dwelling has its own gate and driveway for complete privacy. Truly a one-of-a-kind residence, this privately fenced property combines extraordinary craftsmanship with enchanting gardens, all surrounded by miles of private hiking, biking and riding trails protected by the Arroyo Hondo Land Trust. Home ownership includes membership in the trust. Upon entering the main residence, one immediately experiences the artistic quality of hand troweled and pigmented plaster walls, enormous vigas and custom solid cherry cabinetry. Polished concrete and tile floors lend warmth and character, while gracious living spaces unfold around beautifully landscaped courtyards. Inviting spaces include a light filled gallery, a large, double living room with curving bancos and a dramatic kiva fireplace, a center island kitchen with adjoining sunroom and dining room (with kiva fireplace), a den/media room, two primary suites opening to a shared portal with a hot tub, and two additional bedrooms that share a beautifully renovated bath. Outside, magical walled gardens surround the main house with fruit trees, evergreens, vast views, and an enchanting rose garden centered around a fountain. Follow a winding flagstone path through the pinon to the extraordinary guesthouse, where panoramic views, a private courtyard, driveway and gate creates a separate home. Originally stables, the guesthouse has been transformed into a stylish residence with open concept living/dining, a full kitchen and bath with laundry, two bedrooms and a wonderful loft; all ideal for guests and gatherings. Celebrated equestrian possibilities, a private well, A/C splits and a three car garage with huge attached storeroom complete this exceptional offering.
