Description

Christened "Spirit Point" this architect designed masterpiece— sited on a hilltop 150 feet above Lone Butte, is in the most premiere, preeminent location encompassing 11 acres. Elevating the senses; this singular high-desert retreat captures awe inspiring 360 degree views. In an area known for its equestrian properties and open riding terrain, the estate offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and accessibility to the surrounding landscape, backing to Cerrillos Hills State wilderness area -home to one of the oldest turquoise mines used by Ancestral Puebloans for their beads and jewelry dating back over 1, 000 years with a notable historic connection to Tiffany and Co in the 1880's. Once owned by the producer of Lonesome Dove, the property overlooks the cinematic vistas featured in classic John Wayne films and productions filmed at the historic Eaves Ranch. Co-designed by acclaimed solar builder David Tinker- known for his "ceremonial spaces" that focus on silence and light and frequently cited in AIA for regional modernism alongside artists Paul and Bodilla Shriver, the residence blends regional architecture, artistic mastery, and passive solar principles into a home deeply connected to its setting. Enter through a walled courtyard with custom gates and a traditional bell into interiors rich with texture and detail, including adobe construction, wood and tile floors, herringbone and cove viga ceilings, custom wood cabinetry, and hand dyed reed willow doors and shutters. Artistic elements continue throughout with custom copper lighting and a hand-painted Santo Domingo Pueblo tile backsplash created by artist Edward Mina. The thoughtfully designed T-shaped floor plan creates distinct living zones while maintaining a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. Two expansive primary suites capture remarkable light and views, each opening directly to the wraparound covered deck and outdoor fireplace kiva dining area with BBQ. The primary bath features a Japanese-style soaking tub positioned toward eastern moonrises along with a walk-in shower. Built with steel beams anchored directly into the granite hillside, the home reflects exceptional structural integrity and thermal performance. Five-zone radiant heating is supported by a newer boiler and hot water heater, while the home’s passive solar orientation and insulating construction minimize the need for air conditioning. The outdoor living spaces are equally compelling, with copper-lined covered vigas, dramatic rock outcroppings, sweeping views toward the Sangre de Cristos, with the skyline of the City of Santa Fe, Sandia Mountains, Lone Butte, and sight lines across the former lakebed used in historic film sets. An additional studio or workshop space with electricity and heating offers flexibility for creative pursuits or guest accommodations and is already plumbed for a bath. Rich in provenance, artistry, and architectural intention, Spirit Point is a rare legacy property in the heart of New Mexico’s storied landscape. This is an extraordinary opportunity to own a soulful retreat in one of Northern New Mexico's most scenic and serene settings. Only 15 minutes to Madrid and 20 minutes to Santa Fe Furniture list is available upon request.
