About 24 Whispering Spirits Drive

Architect-Designed Sanctuary on 44 Acres with Sweeping Ortiz Mountain Views Set on 44 pristine acres in the heart of Garden of the Gods rock formations, this architect-designed home is a striking fusion of form, function, and landscape. Completed in 2019 by its architect-owners, the residence reflects a deep sensitivity to place - modern in its lines, yet timeless in its connection to the land and its mesmerizing views of the Ortiz Mountains. The layout offers both simplicity and flexibility, with two bedrooms and a third space perfectly suited for a guest suite, office, or creative studio. Every detail is intentional—custom built-ins and integrated storage maintain clean lines without sacrificing utility. Expansive ceilings and precisely placed windows draw in natural light and frame breathtaking panoramas from nearly every room. The chef’s kitchen is a showpiece of design and performance, anchored by a La Cornue range, Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and Miele dishwasher. Raked German oak cabinetry and honed Taj Mahal marble countertops offer a warm, sculptural backdrop for both cooking and gathering. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with a spa-like bath featuring a Caldara salt-water hot tub, a custom walnut vanity with black Caesarstone counters, and a beautifully crafted walk-in shower. Seamless indoor-outdoor living defines the home. A welcoming entry courtyard, stone patios and covered areas extend the living space, perfectly oriented for sunrise coffee and sunset gatherings. A custom water feature adds a meditative element and is fed by a 12,000 gallon rain-catchment system that also supports the landscaping and garden irrigation. A 52-inch propane firepit, built-in pizza oven, and drought-tolerant yet lush landscaping complete the inviting feel of the exterior spaces. A 21 gal/min private well ensures abundant, high-quality water. A fenced and irrigated raised-bed vegetable garden/orchard and equipment/tractor workshop are adjacent to the 2 car carport (with EV car charger). The perimeter of the acreage is fenced and offers a perfect setting for equestrian facilities, including over two miles of scenic private riding/hiking trails that wind through rolling high desert terrain. An adjacent 20 acre parcel is also available for those seeking even more space and privacy. Rarely does a property of this architectural caliber and ecological sensitivity come to market. This is an extraordinary opportunity to own a soulful, design-forward retreat in one of Northern New Mexico’s most scenic and serene settings. Only 10 minutes to Madrid and 20 minutes to Santa Fe.
