Home with Mountain Views – Santa Fe

Brian Tercero — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 16:29:49 +0000

First years snow blankets the Sangre de Cristos, you can still see the golden tint of the aspen trees... beautiful.

The house has 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and is 3065 heated square feet with 1034 square feet of covered portals and an additional 795 square feet of storage for a grand total of 4894 square feet.

Some of the best architects in Santa Fe designed this custom home to sit hidden by the native pinon trees and junipers on a 2.387 acre lot. The home was pinned in precisely to take advantage of the premium views, while maintaining privacy. You will be in awe of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, and with huge windows in every room, the views will follow you throughout the house.

Imagine yourself cooking dinner in the spacious gourmet kitchen, or relaxing in the authentic Santa Fe style living room, soaking in the hot tub in the master bathroom, or enjoying the kiva fireplaces located in any of these rooms. All the while you will be captivated by the stunning beauty that only Santa Fe has to offer.

Are the views drawing you in? Then step outside onto the curving, view veranda that wraps around the backside of the house, and take a deep breathe of the crisp mountain air, enjoying the warmth of the outdoor, sculpted fireplace. Enjoy one of Santa Fe’s famous sunsets, as the light paints the mountains red… ahhhh… only in Santa Fe!

They dont call them the "Sangre de Cristos" for nothing. Translated from Spanish it means "The Blood of Christ", and they live up to their name.

Construction is under way!

Construction will be complete in late November, its the perfect time to watch the aspens change color, and watch them get their first dusting of mountain snow.

This home is located in the highly coveted Monte Sereno subdivision. It is a master planned luxury community situated on the rolling hills in north east Santa Fe, neighboring the internationally acclaimed Santa Fe Opera House.

Literally five minutes from the Opera, and no more then ten minutes from the historic downtown plaza. Monte Sereno is located perfectly for those who want the the feeling of living out under the stars free from light pollution, but yet are still conveniently located close to all of Santa Fe’s amenities. It just does not get any better than this.

The leaves are turning, fall is upon us!

At this stage in the construction process, things begin to move quickly. After months of preparation and excavation, the home finally begins to go vertical!

So now the shape of the house can be seen. Inside the foundation is the tubing for the radiant heat system. Hot water is pumped through the tubing warming the tile floors, making for an awesome winter experience.

Moving right along. Here are pictures of the stem walls, and the huge retaining wall we had to build. The house is starting to take shape! And we managed to save one of the nicest trees on the lot!

Dirt work – Santa Fe home under construction

Brian Tercero — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 05:09:44 +0000

Here are pictures of the dirt work process. Because the lots in Monte Sereno are all situated on sloping terrain, it made the excavation difficult. We had to cut down into the mountain almost 10 feet because of the covenants has strict height restrictions.

Its always exciting to break ground, I couldn’t keep my kids of the piles of dirt, they had a great time.
