Within the prestigious Las Campanas neighborhood, this contemporary green home offers a blend of luxury and modern design. Overlooking a Jack Nicklaus signature golf course, the home captures scenic views and a sense of tranquility, with cutting-edge features that elevate everyday living. Enter through a grand, pivoting front door that offers views straight through the home. Inside, collapsible doors offer views to the golf course, and strategically placed skylights invite abundant natural light, which further highlights the structure’s stone accents, clean lines, flat roof, and minimalist facade. The open-layout home encompasses three spacious bedrooms and 3.5 elegant bathrooms — all finished with upscale materials. A striking tambour wood hood, bar, and island define the chef’s kitchen, which features exquisite quartzite surfaces and illumination by ET2 Contemporary Lighting. Gas fireplaces throughout the home add warmth and ambience. Outside, the property continues to impress with a custom outdoor kitchen and a fire feature, creating an outdoor space perfect for entertaining against the desert backdrop. This home is a true architectural gem, uniting modern sophistication with natural beauty in one of Santa Fe’s most coveted communities.
