Description
A rare opportunity to own a private wilderness sanctuary with direct access to Carson National Forest—on the market for the first time. Spanning 39 acres in the foothills of Sierra Negra, Rincón Escondido (“Hidden Corner”) offers an immersive landscape of rewilded meadows, pollinator gardens, and a tranquil pond with a cascading waterfall, all set against panoramic views of Cerro Pedernal, Sierra Negra, and the Jémez Mountains. This is true O’Keeffe Country—just minutes from Ghost Ranch, Abiquiú Lake, and the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum—yet remarkably accessible, with Santa Fe only an hour away. Whether hiking directly from the property into the National Forest, exploring nearby trails, or simply taking in the expansive night skies, the setting offers a rare combination of privacy, recreation, and cultural proximity. The 4,032 sq ft property includes a 3,059 sq ft residence along with a heated garage and storage space totaling an additional 973 sq ft. The home blends timeless Southwestern architecture with refined modern finishes, including hand-carved wood doors, artisan detailing, and locally sourced Nambé brick floors throughout. Each room is thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light and frame the surrounding landscape. A chef’s kitchen features a Sub-Zero fridge/freezer, Wolf oven, induction cooktop, and custom craftsmanship, while the spa-inspired primary suite offers a deep soaking tub and walk-in shower. Built with a focus on environmental stewardship, the home is fully powered by a grid-tied 20.16 kW photovoltaic system with four Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries and solar-thermal hot water. Passive solar design, radiant in-floor heating and cooling, and high-efficiency systems ensure year-round comfort. Whether envisioned as a private retreat, creative refuge, or sustainable homestead, Rincón Escondido is more than a home—it is a place to live in direct connection with the land.
