1824, ruelle Cristobal

Blending the best elements of contemporary Pueblo and Territorial styles, this single-level two-bedroom residence on one acre in the desirable Museum Hill neighborhood was designed and built with the utmost quality in 2014 by illustrious Santa Fe painter and designer Doug Atwill. Spanning some 2,530 square feet, it is both suffused with the timeless charm and ambience of Santa Fe—brick and tile floors, plaster walls, soaring ceilings with vigas, and warming fireplaces—and offers the coveted design features and amenities of modern living—including granite countertops, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, luxurious baths, central air conditioning, radiant in-floor and forced-air heating, and a whole-house water-filtration system. The generously scaled rooms are filled with natural light and enjoy views of mountains and the surrounding gardens. French doors and a delightful Dutch door in the kitchen open to patios, an airy loggia with views of the foothills, and the lovely landscaped and irrigated property, which features a stone fountain, fruit-bearing trees, stalwart evergreens, a lavender garden, and steppingstone paths. The coveted convenient location affords easy access to Museum Hill, the Santa Fe Botanical Garden, and famed Canyon Road.
