When a French-American designer couple falls in love with New Mexico and the unique charm and character of adobe architecture, it comes as no surprise that the result combines Old World elegance with an almost extravagant attention to craftsmanship, originality and visual appeal. Open one of the two painstakingly restored period gates, cross the immaculately designed and maintained garden, and enter this authenticadobe house through the walled front patio or the south-facing porch. The home has been upgraded from top to bottom, while keeping intact its original character. The upgrades include all-new plumbing and electrical installation, all the floors and all interior and exterior doors, five of which have hand-carved panels dating back to the 19thcentury. The remodel is complemented by hand-troweled plaster walls, new stucco and windows, ceiling restoration and all mechanicals including heat pumps supplying heat and A/C via ceiling registers. The new primary bathroom is absolutely striking: inspired by Japanese ryokans, it is an enchanting oasis of refinement and serenity. The tastefully upgraded kitchen features a luxury Lacanche ‘Fourneaux de France’ cooking range–the dream of any gourmet. In addition, the property has ample storage and a wine cellar. This is a home like no other–without even one standard feature anywhere. Set in a quiet street behind adobe walls, the house is an island of peace and privacy in the heart of the Historic Guadalupe District, a 10 min walk away from the iconic Santa Fe Plaza.
