From its regal 1.5-acre perch atop a hill just north of Santa Fe, this magnificent private enclave enjoys a dramatically sweeping view that encompasses mountains to the west and south. Architect John Midyette and builder John Wolf have created an inspired adobe residence that, while undeniably superlative, is understated in its elegance and utterly livable. The gallery gives way to an expansive portal with two kiva fireplaces and a gorgeously lush backyard with an Italianate pool and hot tub. An additional lengthy portal envelops the composed, peaceful living room; the view here, over treetops, centers on sunsets and majestic mountains. Characterized by a chic openness and distinctly Southwestern air, the perfectly sized circular dining room features a vaulted ceiling and a kiva fireplace; the bright, cheerful, impeccably appointed kitchen is conveniently nearby. The master-bedroom wing includes two private offices as well as separate master baths with roomy walk-in closets. At the opposite end of the home in a wing of their own are two additional bedroom suites with full spa-like baths. A comfortable one-bedroom guesthouse with a full kitchen, portal, and pool access is sited just on the other side of one- and two-car garages. The grounds--fully walled, fenced, and secured behind a stately gate--are strewn with mature high-desert foliage.
