1050 Sierra Del Norte

Perched near the crest of the coveted Sierra del Norte subdivision, this extraordinary 2 + acre estate offers something increasingly rare in Santa Fe: true privacy, without sacrifice. Bordering protected county open land, the property unfolds against sweeping western views -- the kind that turn ordinary evenings into something worth savoring.From the moment you pass through the gated entry, the architecture speaks for itself. Hand-hewn vigas and massive reclaimed beams anchor coved ceilings overhead, while brick and flagstone floors ground each room with genuine warmth. Diamond-polished plaster walls catch the light in ways paint never could. This is a home built with intention.The floor plan honors both entertaining and solitude. Generously appointed guest suites -- each with an en-suite bath and wood-burning fireplace -- offer visitors a retreat within a retreat. The primary suite is a world unto itself: a fireplace-warmed haven opening onto a private portal, with a spa-caliber bath featuring dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and steam shower.At the heart of it all, the fully reimagined kitchen is a chef's dream -- outfitted with top-tier appliances, luminous Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, and custom cabinetry. Its seamless connection to living and dining areas, den, and multiple portals makes hosting feel effortless.The outdoor grounds continue the story: sculpted rock walls, mature trees, and tranquil water features come together in a fully fenced landscape designed for beauty and living alike. Multiple portals draw you outdoors from nearly every room, blurring the line between inside and out in the finest New Mexican tradition.Practical excellence runs throughout -- radiant in-floor heating, full air conditioning, a heated four-car garage with EV charging, a photovoltaic system that keeps energy costs remarkably low, and a warranted membrane roof for lasting peace of mind.All of this, minutes from the Historic Santa Fe Plaza and Ski Santa Fe.
