About this property

Distinctive Elegance

This exquisite home was built by one of NM’s premier builders of custom homes for his wife and himself. The quality and attention to detail are not usually found in a home available for short term rentals.

Come and relax and enjoy the calming energy of the desert in the 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. High beamed ceilings, Italian tile, and granite counter tops accent the main living area.

Majestic views of the Organ Mountain sunrises, sunset views of Picacho Peak. Watch the city lights come on in the Mesilla Valley.

Dining room features the “traditional latilla ceilings” with authentic straw backing appearing throughout.

Large, open kitchen plan with bar opening to dining room and great room. Great room features incredible views and a kiva fireplace. Dining room offers an original armoire and table hand crafted in Taos, NM.

Master bedroom features mountain views, private exit to outdoor area, huge walk in closet, and intricately installed tile workout in the “Forrest Shower” which features 4 shower heads.

Two additional bedrooms imbibe the “zen like” feeling of the house with traditional (mostly original) southwestern art work and furnishings. Each room features a queen size bed and authentic southwest décor.

Outdoor living room features table for six (plus a smaller side table for four), gas grill, stunning original water feature(fountain), kiva fireplace, and incredible views.

The logistics of the property offer complete privacy both within the residence and in the fenced backyard within this prestigious golf community.

Wireless Internet and cable TV provided (in master bedroom and great room) for the convenience and pleasure of our guests.
