Step into a world of beauty, history, and charm with this rare property located directly across from Santa Fe’s renowned rose garden. Once part of an historic monastery, this enchanting home welcomes you through stately wooden gates into a private paradise — a romantic garden surrounded by high walls, where the scent of flowers and the dappled shade of a grape-covered arbor set the tone for serene living. Wander along pathways framed by lush garden beds until you arrive at the charming home, brimming with authentic Santa Fe character and bathed in natural light. Take a moment to take in the garden views from the bench on the front portal and then enter the home through the handcrafted wooden door which opens into a sweet vestibule with a built-in bench — before leading into a spacious living room with high ceilings, a kiva fireplace, and tile floors. The first bedroom offers an entire wall of closets and plentiful light, while the dining area feels like a sunroom, with windows on two sides bringing the outdoors in. The efficient kitchen is perfect for creating intimate meals, and the bright bathroom shines with Mexican tile. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a wall of south-facing windows and glass doors that, along with a huge skylight, flood the space with warmth and sunlight. A generous wall of closets along the west wall and a flexible bonus room — ideal as an office, reading nook, or TV lounge — complete the space. Walking around the house you will find a small greenhouse and a generous storage shed. Toward the Galisteo Parkway side of the property there is another storage shed and ample parking for several vehicles. In addition, the excellent alarm system has cellular with battery back-up and the mini splits heating and cooling the home are still under warranty. From its rich history and architectural details to its lush, inviting gardens, this is more than a home — it’s a private sanctuary for the soul.
