Wrapped in walled courtyards, gardens and views at the crest of the Los Altos enclave in Estancia Primera, architect John Midyette evokes the charm of Santa Fe in a form that is perfect for entertaining and everyday living. Elegantly-crafted, the 3-bedroom 2.5 bath, 2803 sq/ft main residence opens out to portals and sumptuous outdoor spaces. Featuring a Great Room with handsome wood flooring, plaster wall surfaces, wood-beamed ceiling, hand carved corbels and walls of windows overlooking lush gardens, there is a wonderful sense of intention, scale and accomplishment on the part of the architect. Among the signatures of Midyette design are a series of corner windows that invite light into the house. A grand front courtyard replete with two patios, rock fountain and handsome portal creates a formal entry. Here you find views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains as they climb to Santa Fe Baldy. In contrast, the south garden and portal create a more contemplative ambiance with wilder plantings lining the stone footsteps to the guest house, an exterior fireplace under the portal and views of Sun and Moon Mountain and southward to the Ortiz and Sandia Mountains. The residence is delightful from first meeting. Hand-crafted cabinetry and built-in book cases are found throughout the house. Three fireplaces grace the main house and there is a yet another in the Guest House. Custom lighting allows for thoughtful illumination of artwork and other objects of desire. The Great Room is large enough to accommodate a dining table and the gourmet kitchen includes a dining area with built-in seating that can easily seat eight. Applianced with a Viking 4-burner range/oven, dishwasher and Sub-Zero refrigerator and the color concrete counter tops, the design of the kitchen makes preparing meals and entertaining easy. There is lots of hand-crafted cabinetry and the center island includes informal breakfast seating and is finished with bead board detailing. Conveniently located off the kitchen is a small portal a great site for a barbeque as well as laundry, pantry, garage entry and evaporative cooling unit. Sleeping quarters are on the east side of the house. The master opens out to the south portal and includes a comfortable sleeping room, walk-in closet and gracious bath with jetted tub, shower and an L-shaped vanity with hand-painted basins. Two additional sleeping rooms are currently used as a home office and den. Down the stone path from the south portal, a free-standing 900 sq/ft one-bedroom guest house with wrap-around portal offers independence for sojourners. Designed by Midyette, the guest house mirrors the style and quality of the main residence. It has a private entry, comfortable living/dining/kitchen combo with a smashing view of the mountains and a large sleeping room that overlooks the garden. Full bath and laundry complete this living area. Moments from town, a part of the larger Estancia Primera community with pool and tennis facilities at your fingertips, bask in the mystique of Santa Fe living in a stunning setting.
