748 Camino Mirada, Santa Fe, NM – SOLD

About the property

748 Camino Mirada is a single level residence in Los Miradores, the gated community on the Upper Eastside near St. John’s College. It has three bedrooms and three baths in 2,900 square feet, four fireplaces, and a two car attached garage. The living and dining rooms have soaring ceilings and abundant windows, and the plan is flexible enough to be lived in as three bedrooms or as two suites, with a bonus room besides.

Outside, the gardens and courtyards are walled and shaded by mature aspens, with a water feature and an outdoor fireplace, and the views are of Sun and Moon Mountains.

The Webster Estates team represented the seller, and the sale closed in 2014.

The house

The ceilings are what a visitor notices first. Los Miradores houses are attached, and the trick of the good ones is to feel nothing like it inside; 748 does that with height and glass, so that the main rooms read as a pavilion rather than a unit. Four fireplaces spread the warmth through the plan, and the bonus room absorbs whatever a household needs it to be, a study, a media room, or a place for grandchildren.

The aspens are the other thing. Mature aspens inside a walled courtyard, with water and a fire, make an outdoor room that is used from April to October, and in a community where the grounds are professionally kept, they will be looked after.

The neighborhood

Los Miradores sits off Camino Cabra a few minutes from Museum Hill, St. John’s College, and the trailheads on Sun and Moon Mountains. The community has a security gate, a pool, tennis courts, and a gym, with professional management, which is the arrangement that makes a house here easy to lock and leave. The schools are Atalaya Elementary, DeVargas Middle, and Santa Fe High.

About the transaction

We represented the seller at 748 Camino Mirada. The listing sold in a little over four months and closed within four percent of the asking price, which is the pattern for the best houses in Los Miradores: a steady buyer base that knows the community and moves when the right house appears. The buyer brought representation from outside Santa Fe, as second home buyers often do, and the closing was as smooth as any we have handled there.
