The neighborhood has covenants protecting the night sky, so you’ll enjoy a dome of glittering stars from the several walled patios and complete peace as the moon sails by. The immediate neighborhood is blissfully quiet, on a paved road at the perimeter of the community, with open ranch land to the north and west—there’s no traffic, just the occasional lowing cow or yipping coyote. The community is threaded with trails and the rail trail (5 min. drive) is wide-well maintained hike-and-bike path into open land that you can follow all the way north to Santa Fe or south to Lamy. The Eldorado Wilderness is an expansive preserve with many trails, while the Galisteo Basin Preserve lies about 15 minutes south. Two small community shopping centers less then 10 minutes away with full-sized grocery, post office, hardware, gym, nail salon, coffee shop and several restaurants. EXPANDED SPACE OPTION: attached sunny 850 sf casita can be rented with the main house at substantial discount from its independent rental rate of $1650.

Comments: This is a second home, where I stay as much as possible when not at my home university. I prefer 4 month rentals but can be flexible about length
