Location: Santa Fe, New Mexico

Price: $13.6 million

Perched above Santa Fe with clear, unobstructed sightlines of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range and on to the Santa Fe Ski Basin, this private and sprawling abode is tucked into a rugged desert hillside. Eighteen acres of pristine homestead sits just 10 minutes from downtown Santa Fe, the town’s world-class opera, dining, and vibrant art scene accessible in minutes.

"Built of adobe, stone, and stucco, the home incorporates architectural antiques, collected from around the world, into its design," explained listing agent Ray Rush of Rush/Van Camp Knowing Santa Fe.

"Berthold, Nikolai, and Simon Haas, second- and third-generation artisans, now best known for their set design—performance masks for Lady Gaga and gold-leafed furniture for Louis Vuitton—were enlisted for the creation and installation of numerous elements throughout the home," Mr. Rush said. Their remarkable work can be seen in the mantels and surrounds the home's 13 fireplaces, as well as stone window sills, sinks, range hoods, and exterior benches.

With its vast courtyards, glamorous accents, and custom detailing, it’s a home for an owner with a flair for the dramatic.

The Stats

The main house, all 13,779 square feet of it, includes four bedrooms and four full baths, alongside a family room, living room, dining room, library and three-bay garage. Two of the four bedrooms serve as guest quarters and occupy a private wing in the home. In a separate guest house or in-law suite, two full bedrooms, one full bath, and one half bath offer the ultimate in private living for extended-stay guests.

Amenities

The his-and-hers master wing features separate bedrooms, each with a large full bath and walk-in closet. Creating a buffer between the guest wing is an octagon-shaped library, and a mudroom and laundry room. The guest wing’s two bedrooms open into a private sitting room and fountain courtyard. In the main living quarters, a wet bar serves a dining room with seating for 10 guests.

Neighborhood Notes

"Horses are allowed on the property and riding trails into the Santa Fe National Forest are easily accessed," Mr. Rush said. The Rio Grande and Cochiti Lake are mere minutes away, as is the Valles Caldera National Preserve. No matter what direction out of the house you head, there’s a pristine landscape waiting on you.
