Some homes are close to everything. This one is close to everything and close to the quiet. Minutes from downtown Santa Fe, this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath split-level home in the Villas at Ridgepointe is perfectly situated within the neighborhood itself. This home enjoys direct backyard access to the trail system that winds through the community. The floorplan is designed for privacy and function. Upstairs, the open-concept living and formal dining area flows onto a covered deck, ideal for indoor/outdoor entertaining. A flexible, light-filled space off the main living area works as a breakfast nook, play area, or home office. The primary suite, also upstairs, includes an en suite bath and a large walk-in closet. Downstairs, a den/media room offers another gathering space, with built-in bancos, bookcases, generous storage, and a wet bar. From here, step out to the fenced yard and covered lower-level portal, a natural extension of the living space. Two bedrooms, one en suite, and an additional full bathroom complete the lower level, giving guests or kids their own space, nicely separated from the main living areas. Additional features include an attached two-car garage, a spacious laundry area, and refrigerated air. Recent improvements include a newer roof, stucco, and a combination boiler/water heater. Excellent access to US-285, the 599 bypass, and downtown shops and restaurants.
