Set on six acres with an acequia, this exceptional and very private Northern New Mexico property blends timeless regional style with artistic vision and sweeping natural beauty. Designed, built, and occupied as a second home by architect and artist Robert Nicholais, the compound is centered around a charming courtyard and framed by native foliage and views of the Truchas Peaks. The adobe main house features 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, with warm natural light, authentic character, and a thoughtful connection to the surrounding landscape. Separate from the main residence is an adobe studio, ideal for creative work, guests, or a quiet retreat space. Additional detached structures include a large well house with well equipment and holding tank, as well as a one-car garage, creating a classic Northern New Mexico compound feel with privacy and flexibility throughout.
