Come home to the New Mexico sky. Casa Arroyo at Rancho del Viento offers something increasingly difficult to find near Santa Fe: room to breathe, extraordinary natural surroundings, and real access to the city when you want it. Located in Lamy on the edge of the Galisteo Basin, this beautifully furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath casa combines the quiet and openness of Northern New Mexico with convenient access to Santa Fe, Eldorado and the Galisteo Basin Preserve. The Santa Fe Plaza is approximately 15 miles away, making it easy to enjoy the restaurants, galleries, museums, markets and culture of Santa Fe while coming home to wide-open land, mountain views and remarkable night skies. Both spacious bedrooms feature king beds and private ensuite bathrooms, making the floor plan especially comfortable when sharing the home or hosting guests. The generous living area is centered around a traditional kiva fireplace, with firewood included in the rent. A full custom kitchen provides plenty of room for everyday cooking and entertaining. Step outside and the landscape becomes part of the home. Enjoy morning coffee beneath the enormous New Mexico sky, watch the light change across the mountains in the evening, and experience nights when the stars become the view. Walking, hiking and cycling are accessible directly from the property's back gate, opening into thousands of acres of conservation lands. Casa Arroyo offers the peace of country living without requiring you to give up everyday conveniences. Nearby Eldorado at Santa Fe offers grocery shopping, coffee, restaurants and services, while historic Lamy retains the quiet character of one of Northern New Mexico's old railroad villages. The Galisteo Basin Preserve with miles of trails through high-desert grasslands, arroyos and sandstone ridges is 5 minutes away by car. Inside, the casa is designed for comfortable year-round living, with heated floors and mini-splits for air conditioning and heat, washer and dryer, internet, private entrance, two parking spaces and outdoor living areas. $4,000 per month includes utilities, trash service, internet and firewood, making monthly expenses simple and predictable. Flexible lease options are available: month-to-month with a three-month minimum commitment. The home is offered fully furnished for shorter and longer stays. An unfurnished option is available. The $4,000 security deposit may be paid in three installments, and security-deposit insurance is accepted in lieu of a traditional cash security deposit. Casa Arroyo is especially well suited to someone relocating to Santa Fe, spending an extended season in Northern New Mexico, working remotely, transitioning between homes, or simply wanting to experience what it is like to actually live in the landscape rather than merely visit it. Here, Santa Fe is close but the mountains, trails, quiet, sunsets and stars are right outside your door. No smoking allowed in indoors, no trailers, ATVs, or equipment storage, no outdoor storage.
