NEW TO SANTA FE VACATION RENTALS is a delightful casita with fantastic views

This casita has it all; fantastic views, charming Santa Fe ambiance, spacious accomodations, beautiful gardens, full kitchen and laundry room, walled patio and a second story deck.
Less than a mile off Old Santa Fe Trail, you will drive up the hillside into a gated 5 acre wooded compound.  The compound included 2 casitas, a studio and our home all spaced on the hillside to maximize everyone's views and privacy.  It is hard to see one from another except on the drive up.  The guest house/casita we are offering has been a year round residence for years and is just now being  available for vacation use, so it is setup for comfortable living.  Coming up the drive you'll come to a two story, 1500 square foot casita.  Walk in the way to an enchanting walled patio surrounded by a beautiful well established garden.  It is a delightful place to while away the afternoon or enjoy the sunset warmed by the outdoor fireplace.  You'll enter the first floor to a lovely sunken living room with so many windows that you will still be part of the outdoors.  Sit across from the kiva fireplace (equipped with firebox for efficiency) on the comfortable sleeper sofa (which sleeps two) and watch the birds, bunnies and occasional coyote cavort right outside your window.  Or sit back with a good book or movie chosen from the well stocked library and relax.  There is a TV/VCR/DVD with cable provided for your enjoyment.  If you have a little work to be done or a note to send, pull up to the built in desk off the kitchen and hook in to the DSL.  The kitchen is complete with full oven, microwave, dishwasher, two cook tops, large refrigerator and is completed with all the dishes, pots and pans, small appliances, and linens you'll need.  Just off the kitchen is a pantry with a full size washer and dryer.  Also on the ground floor is a full bath and a dining area with a rustic table and 6 chairs as well as a built in buffet.  All with freshly refinished oak floors or saltillo tile.  An alcove off the living and dining area is secluded place to sit or nap on the Taos bed (which provides comfortable sleep for one).  As you move through the first floor you will climb the spiral stairway past a truly fantastic stained glass window (which is part of the second full bath) to the second level.  The vigas, windows and wood will welcome you.  The second floor has a lovely bedroom with a queen size bed and a large window with views that entrance you.  You can enjoy the views of the Jemez and Sandia mountains even better from the 20'x20' second floor deck.  And what a place to view the stars! As I mention there is a second full bath with large tub/shower and a double vanity.  As an added plus there is an alcove off the bedroom that is perfect for a reading area and has a handmade twin bed for additional sleeping.
Now that you have found the perfect place to stay prepare to enjoy all Santa Fe has to offer.  Just down Old Santa Fe Trail you'll come to Museum Hill and the turn for St. John's.
Continue at the Trail and you'll soon be at Canyon Road with all the wonderful galleries, shops and restaurants.  Back on the Trail you are blocks from the Plaza the "true heart" of the City Different.
All we need is YOU to make this picture complete. Have the best of both, convenience and seclusion and quiet.  For any questions please email dlwood123@aol.com or call 505-995-1332.  Wherever you choose to stay have a wonderful time in the LAND OF ENCHANTMENT.  Thank you.
Thanks for a great place to stay! You thought of everything!
