About 11 Descanso Road
From the moment you arrive, this property makes an impression. Dramatic Colorado Redstone retaining walls line the driveway, setting the tone for the authentic Southwestern character within. Once inside, sweeping views of the Sandia Mountains, the Galisteo Basin, and the Ortiz Mountains take center stage — visible from the living areas and framed beautifully by the back portal and walled garden, where breathtaking New Mexico sunsets become part of daily life. Inside, the single-level floor plan flows effortlessly from room to room, anchored by a classic kiva fireplace and finished with the hallmark details of authentic Santa Fe style — tile floors, wood-beamed ceilings, and oversized windows that bathe every room in New Mexico's legendary light. The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, opening seamlessly to the living and dining areas for easy entertaining, while a front-row seat to spectacular desert sunrises makes even an ordinary morning feel extraordinary. The primary suite is a true retreat — spacious and thoughtfully appointed with a generous walk-in closet and en-suite bath featuring a dual-sink vanity, soaking tub, and separate walk-in shower. A split-bedroom design tucks the guest rooms on the opposite side of the home ensuring that privacy is never an afterthought. Eldorado residents enjoy miles of walking and biking trails, a community center, pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and parks — all just a short drive from Santa Fe's galleries, restaurants, and historic plaza. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a lock-and-leave retreat, or simply a place that feels like an escape without being far from everything, this property delivers.
