Rolling across 175 acres of quintessentially Southwestern ranchland — a seemingly infinite tableau of brown earth, piñon, and juniper — Rancho Alegre is a magnificent residential property destined to be known as a Santa Fe landmark. Designed by renowned architect William F. Tull and featured in the June 2008 issue of Architectural Digest, the impressive pueblo-style residence is nestled near the crest of a hill with panoramic views of the Ortiz and Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The residence features a 13,000 square-foot main house; central plaza courtyard; santuario; torreon with rooftop deck; guest and caretaker’s quarters; carriage house; and expansive rear patio with entertaining portal, infinity-edge pool, hot tub, and cabana. Not far off lie a private four-bedroom guesthouse and equestrian facilities that include twelve casita-style horse stalls and a large riding arena.

Destined to be the site of many a grand fete, the magnificent main living area—known as “the pueblo room”—sits beneath a soaring 20-foot ceiling. Two master craftsmen hand-carved the beams, corbels, and lintels by working on their backs on scaffolding for six months. An elegant wrought-iron chandelier provides a dramatic centerpiece, and an impressive oversized wood-burning fireplace anchors the space. The wide-plank antique oak floors were made from reclaimed boards from a 100-year-old farmhouse. Banks of oversized copper-clad windows and double doors open to the rear portal, designed for fabulous outdoor dining and entertaining, and the spa-like rear patio with its eye-catching gardens and infinity-edge swimming pool.
