Description
One of the most extraordinary and architecturally significant properties in New Mexico, this rare sanctuary known as “The Desert Flower” (Ahkon Povi in the Tewa language) is truly a work of art. Inspired by the ancient Native dwellings of Pueblo Bonito and Chaco Canyon, this Earthship inspired estate blends natural materials, anthropological design, and organic craftsmanship into a one of a kind living experience. Set on 11 private acres just minutes from downtown Santa Fe, Ahkon Povi features two separate dwellings totaling 7,913 square feet. The property includes 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and 8 traditional kiva fireplaces. A massive heated studio with soaring ceilings and 12 skylights creates an inspiring creative space, while the detached garage, koi pond, and panoramic mountain views complete the serene setting. The spa amenities are equally remarkable, featuring a breathtaking steam room, cedar sauna adjacent to the outdoor heated swimming pool, a Japanese cedar hot tub, and an additional massage room or flexible office/bedroom space. The property also allows for up to four horses. Every room has been thoughtfully handcrafted with extraordinary attention to detail, creating a natural rhythm and flow unlike any other home. Every inch of the estate was carefully designed and built with intention, artistry, and timeless character. Upon request, a beautifully written narrative detailing the inspiration behind the property, along with the extensive building process and materials used, is available.
