Artist Road #31

If skiing, shopping, taking a hike or getting a massage has you wanting to book the perfect vacation, then Artist Road #31 is your dream destination. Glorious mountain views just minutes from the Plaza await you here!

This condo brings you the warmth and comfort of home in an exciting new location. The Spanish-style design and easy-access single-story layout welcome you into rooms dominated by large windows, smooth tile floors, and buttery-toned walls. You'll find Artist Road #31 lovingly decorated and spotlessly clean, just waiting for you to flop down and make yourself comfortable. All the attractions of New Mexico may bring you here, but Artist Road #31 will make you yearn for an excuse to spend a little time indoors, too!

The living room, dining area, and kitchen are all combined at Artist Road #31, so your group stays together even when some are cooking, others watching a show on the flat-screen, and the rest working a jigsaw at the big, well-lighted table. There's plenty of room to carve out individual spaces in this arrangement, yet everyone is together, enjoying the precious downtime that is so important to a successful vacation. Let the kids glom onto their phones while the grown-ups chat over a glass of wine and some delicious nibbles. You can stretch out and relax at Artist Road #31!

You'll quickly find your favorite spot in the living room, whether it's the recliner, the rocker chair, or the long, sink-right- in sofa. Or perhaps you enjoy being near the heart of the big, lovely wood-burning fireplace. In winter, you will find cords of firewood waiting for you, and no doubt a cry will go up for s'mores. Save time and pick up the fixings along the way -- dieting is strictly prohibited within these walls!

The kitchen is fully stocked with appliances, utensils, and dishwasher for all your meal prep and serving needs. The chef in your group will be delighted . . . or if that chef is off-duty, remember that downtown Santa Fe, in all its culinary glory, is just minutes away! Even if you just use the space for snacks and leftovers, you'll appreciate how nicely appointed the kitchen is. Easy to brew some coffee, microwave last night's feast, load the dishwasher, and be out the door in no time! Oh -- and did we mention the stacked washer and dryer, ready for loads of clothes?

And the sleeping quarters will please your entire group. The second bedroom is perfect for the younger travelers that accompany you at Artist Road #31. There is a second full bath near this bedroom. This bath has a tub, ideal for smaller children who don't like showers and older folks who appreciate a good long soak after a day on the slopes. All towels and linens are provided for every bed and bath, of course -- all you need do is enjoy!

The primary suite is spacious and restful at Artist Road #31, with a king-size bed, a TV for when the game runs long or you crave a late-night movie and a private phone. Its en-suite bath includes a tub/shower combo and plenty of storage space. But the second bedroom, not to be outdone, offers a split king -- a bed you can connect or separate into twins -- plus its own TV, a handsome roll-top desk, and breathtaking views from the big windows.

As cozy and comfortable as the interior of Artist Road #31 is, you may find that the exterior is your favorite place. There is a covered patio facing the mountains -- with brilliant views of both the sunrise and sunset, not to mention the alpenglow -- that you may just find irresistible. This is the place you'll gravitate to in the morning, half awake, that first cup of coffee in hand. You'll probably want to return at lunch, just to see how the light has changed on the foothills and listen to the birds calling in the chaparral. And in the evening, as shadows lengthen, you'll savor the fresh breezes and quiet beauty of the landscape from your own private nook. It's the perfect place to watch the snow fall or the heat waves shimmer.

Once you arrive at Artist Road #31, your drive time is about over. You can be at Ski Santa Fe in minutes, or you can stroll along any of the hiking trails that begin mere yards from your front back door. If you want to find a new restaurant or do a little window shopping, the Plaza is about six city blocks from the condo. Art galleries, jewelry shops, incredible dining experiences, luxurious spas, and so much more await you in downtown Santa Fe! Live like a local at Artist Road #31, and leave with your batteries recharged and your spirit renewed.
