Description
The Grand Dame of Galisteo, where historic charm meets timeless beauty on a scale rarely attainable in today's economy. Built by a wealthy family as a vacation home for entertaining during opera season, it is operatic in scale and feel. Step back in time, grand hallways connect huge rooms hidden from the formal library, dining and great rooms. Hideaway from current events in artistic splendor, solitude, and expansive indoor and outdoor spaces. Perched atop the charming village of Galisteo, just 25 minutes from Santa Fe & an hour from the Sunport, Hacienda del Sol is a historic 4-bedroom, 5.5-bath estate that blends classic New Mexico character with refined elegance. Originally built in 1938 as Galisteo's Old Schoolhouse under the WPA, the home retains its original school bell and cornerstone and was later transformed into a celebrated residence by world-renowned photographer Nicholas Trofimuk. Featured in Architectural Digest, the property is rich in architectural detail and artistic touches, including six working fireplaces, a grand hallway, formal library, & a spacious studio. The master suite features a sitting area, wet bar, Jack-and-Jill bathrooms, & a jetted tub, while two additional bedrooms offer ensuite baths and generous closets. The formal dining room is anchored by a custom 10-seat table carved by local artisans, a built-in banquette inspired by a Mexico City hotel, and hand-carved doors from a mission in San Miguel de Allende. An expansive 3,500-square-foot enclosed patio offers stunning western views of the Ortiz Mountains & Cerro Pelon, with direct access to hiking and horse trailsideal for watching vibrant sunsets & star-filled skies. The property also includes a fully furnished guest house with a separate entrance, full kitchen, living and dining areas, and a private bedroom and bathperfect for visitors, extended family, or multi-generational living. Leave the madness behind, escape to Hacienda Del Sol. Watch the video!
