About this property

Monte De Canoncito - A Beautiful Mountain Top Home, 10 Miles From Santa Fe, NM

Monte de Canoncito - A beautiful southwest style stucco home with New Mexican charm awaits your visit to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Located at 7,200 feet on top of Jicarilla Ridge, your “Home Away from Home” is surrounded by 28 acres of mountain property. Enjoy the natural beauty of this secluded property which has the only road leading into 50 square miles of National Forest. You will be just 10 miles from Santa Fe, a city rich in culture, history, fine dining and offers a traditional New Mexican experience. This amazing home sits on top of Canoncito Mountain with 270 degree panoramic views of over one hundred miles of the Galisteo Basin preserve and high mountain Sandia and Monzano ranges. The wrap around deck overlooks the historic Civil War battlegrounds of Apache Canyon and offers evening relaxation as you sip a glass of wine and watch the beautiful blue New Mexico skies and breath-taking sunsets.

Strategically located, your party can venture north to the Pecos Wilderness which is an easy 30 minute drive or continue for another 30 minutes and tour historic Las Vegas, New Mexico. Established in 1835, Stephen W. Kearny delivered an address at the Plaza of Las Vegas claiming New Mexico for the United States during the Mexican-American War in 1846. You can also head south to hike in the Tent Rock Area or travel up to Bandelier National Monument and visit the homes and territory of the Ancestral Puebloans of a later era in the Southwest.

Featuring everything you need to compliment your New Mexico vacation or business experience, this beautifully appointed home has comfortable furnishings and 9ft viga ceilings. The home offers 3 bedrooms with queen sized beds, 2 full baths with tub and showers (hair dryers provided) , an open loft with single pull out sleeper, fully equipped kitchen with granite counter tops, kiva fireplace, wood stove, 2-person Jacuzzi bathtub, washer, dryer and 2-car garage. Complimentary coffee and tea are provided. Quality linens with complimentary bath soaps are provided. The front patio has a beautiful seating area surrounded by a 3-tiered garden, water fountain and natural vegetation including pinon, pine, aspen and cedar trees. The lower patio includes comfortable seating and a relaxing bubbling waterfall with views of the Glorietta baldy mountains. The deck offers a barbeque grill with patio dining table and other covered and open leisure seating to gaze upon the beautiful surroundings and spectacular views of the Sandia, Ortiz, Monzano and Sangre de Cristo mountain ranges. At the end of the day, warm up around a propane fire table and enjoy the clear starlit skies. There are steps from the driveway and garage into the main house. There are two steps to get to the back bedrooms and master bedroom and into the kitchen area. Guests will have access to internet ( Starlink), DVD/BlueRay player and DirectTV. The main road to the property is a paved winding road up the mountain and then turns into a graveled dirt road. Non-Smoking Guests. No pets. Children Welcome. Minimum age limit for renters.

Beautiful Mountain Home
A group of 4 women enjoyed several days at this beautiful mountain home. There is a great deck with an amazing view for enjoying coffee, meals, cocktails. This home and kitchen are incredibly well stocked with every spice, appliance, cooking tool needed. The home is comfortable, clean and well decorated. As others have mentioned, the road to the home is steep and narrow and partially paved. The first time driving up was a bit harrowing, but once we were used to it there was no problem. We rented an SUV. The owner is very responsive to all questions.

beautiful days in Sante Fe
This home is beautifully decorated and meticulously cared for. The garden patio is lovely and the breezes on all the outdoor spaces are so refreshing. We all loved the privacy of the location and the outstanding scenery. Host was quite accommodating.

Beautiful vacation
My wife and I, our daughter and her husband, and their two children 13 and 19 spent a wonderful nine days at this property. The views on the deck circling the property were incredible. However, our favorite place was sitting with the family in either of the two front yard gardens. in addition to beautiful flowers surrounding us, the owners had wonderful, wind chimes, and a flowing waterfall that was delightful. Yes, the road leading up to the house was driven carefully and slowly, however, the arrival at the house was well worth the climb. It was probably the most relaxing vacation. My wife and I have had in the last 50 years. The kitchen was as well appointed as mine in our home. The host had every conceivable spice and item. Anyone would want to prepare meals. My wife and daughter are both excellent cooks, and they were very happy with the kitchen and it’s accommodations finally, the setting sun going down between the two mountains and the view from the porch is absolutely incredible each night. This is indeed a very special place.
