Walking Distance Close To Santa Fe Plaza

This charming gem is sited on a quaint 3,000 square-foot lot within easy walking distance to the historic Santa Fe Plaza. Designed to maximize a sense of spaciousness, the small-scale house incorporates a 13-foot coved ceiling and oversized windows to maximize natural light. The home includes walnut wood floors, custom knotty alder wood doors, custom-painted cabinetry, stunning hardware and bespoke furnishings. Exceptionally tall French doors in the living room create a natural flow into the home’s intimate courtyard. The home’s exterior is the perfect complement to the property’s overall design, with a serene courtyard featuring lush flowerbeds framed in hand-cut stone and a delightful garden house. The landscaping seamlessly blends stone and ironwork, including 17th-century wrought-iron pieces meticulously transplanted from the owner’s previous home in Charleston, South Carolina, and tastefully displayed on the adobe walls in the courtyard garden.
