Property Description

BACK ON THE MARKET — NO FAULT OF THE SELLER. An exceptional opportunity to own a distinctive Northern New Mexico adobe estate set on 2.5 private, gated acres in the desirable La Mesilla community. Ideally situated with convenient access to both Santa Fe and Los Alamos, the property offers a rare balance of privacy, architectural character, and proximity to the region’s premier cultural, employment, dining, and recreational destinations. The approximately 4,400-square-foot main residence reflects the timeless beauty of traditional Southwestern design, with exposed vigas, graceful arched openings, rich wood and brick flooring, multiple fireplaces, and generous living spaces designed for both intimate gatherings and effortless entertaining. An inviting courtyard extends the living experience outdoors and captures the essence of Northern New Mexico living. Mature cottonwoods and established landscaping create a serene, park-like setting, while the end-of-cul-de-sac location, full fencing, and private gate offer an added sense of seclusion. An approximately 2,000-square-foot guest house and garage provides remarkable versatility for extended family, guests, a private office, studio, or potential rental use. A detached three-car garage and substantial RV garage offer exceptional space for vehicles, recreational equipment, workshop needs, and storage. Equestrian amenities include horse stalls and level acreage with room for additional corrals, gardens, barns, or outdoor living areas. A rare combination of authentic adobe architecture, generous scale, privacy, and access to Santa Fe and Los Alamos, this unique estate embodies the enduring character and lifestyle of Northern New Mexico.
