Charming, yet elegant, Alcalde adobe compound just steps from the Rio Grande Bosque. Experience refined farm living in this meticulously restored northern New Mexico property, which includes a main house, detached casita, and artist studio with a 3-car garage on 4.2 acres–2 acres of which are arable farmland. The acreage stretches from the Acequia de Alcalde to the Rio Grande Bosque and offers sweeping 180-degree views of the Jemez Mountains, Black Mesa, and the RG Bosque. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath adobe main house dates back to the early 1900s but has undergone thoughtful renovations and system upgrades in 2004 and again between 2022 and 2025. Finishes include vigas, coved ceilings, tile, brick, and wood floors, plus new high-end appliances in the kitchen and laundry. Equally charming is the 1-BD, 1-BA detached casita–perfect for guests or rental income. The double-adobe casita, the oldest structure on the property, was completely reimagined in 2024 and features custom tile work, a functional kitchenette, a new mini-split for heating and cooling, a screened-in porch, and front-row views of the Bosque. The property also includes a 3-car detached garage with an attached artist studio, making this property truly the complete package. The approximately 500 sq. ft. studio is heated and cooled by a mini-split and serves as an ideal space to create–or would serve as a great workshop. The grounds near the residences are landscaped with native grasses, flowers, a variety of fruit trees, and are watered by an 8-zone automated drip irrigation system. Water fountains grace both the front and back of the main house for added ambiance. Additional features include a private well, net-metered solar panels on the main house, and 3-acre feet of acequia water rights. Whether you’re seeking an agricultural dream or a lush, retreat from city life, this property offers tranquility and the splendor of northern New Mexico–just 35 minutes from downtown Santa Fe.
