31 Pinon Jay Trail, Santa Fe, NM 87505

Originally conceived and built in 1966 by noted Santa Fe artist Donna Elizabeth Quasthoff, this one-of-a-kind compound was designed from the ground up as a place where art could be lived and made. A rare find for the visionary buyer, the property is being sold as-is and will require renovation but what it offers in return is difficult to replicate:

3,585 square feet of architecturally distinctive space, two purpose-built artist studios, and sweeping mountain views on approximately 4 acres of pinon juniper land. The central living wing features exposed wood beam ceilings, original slate tile floors a traditional kiva fireplace with built-in banco seating, and a sculptural spiral staircase with handcrafted wood railing and blue stained glass skylight overhead.

Upstairs, a large family room and bedroom open to direct mountain views and an outdoor patio. Each flanking studio is two stories and was purpose built for serious creative work. One features a large skylight panel, open loft, and mountain views. The other retains its original photography darkroom, enlarger, developing sinks, print trays, and storage, all intact and original to the artist's practice.

A screened porch and shed complete the property. Pre-inspection report is available upon request. The adjacent 5 acre parcel at 20B Star Vista Road is being offered together with this property. This property offers numerous opportunities for the creative buyer.
