Hacienda del Sol | Historic Charm Meets Timeless Beauty in Galisteo

Perched atop the charming village of Galisteo, just 25 minutes from Santa Fe & an hour from an international airport, Hacienda del Sol is a historic 4-bedroom, 5.5-bath estate that blends classic New Mexico character with refined elegance. Originally built in 1938 as Galisteo’s Old Schoolhouse under the WPA, the home retains its original school bell and cornerstone and was later transformed into a celebrated residence by world-renowned photographer Nicholas Trofimuk. Featured in Architectural Digest, the property is rich in architectural detail and artistic touches, including six working fireplaces, a grand hallway, formal library, & a spacious studio. The master suite features a sitting area, wet bar, Jack-and-Jill bathrooms, & a jetted tub, while two additional bedrooms offer ensuite baths and generous closets. The formal dining room is anchored by a custom 10-seat table carved by local artisans, a built-in banquette inspired by a Mexico City hotel, and hand-carved doors from a mission in San Miguel de Allende. An expansive 3,500-square-foot enclosed patio offers stunning western views of the Ortiz Mountains & Cerro Pelon, with direct access to hiking and horse trails—ideal for watching vibrant sunsets & star-filled skies. The property also includes a fully furnished guest house with a separate entrance, full kitchen, living and dining areas, and a private bedroom and bath—perfect for visitors, extended family, or multi-generational living. Additional amenities include a stocked tool shed, three garages, hot water baseboard heat with Mitsubishi split A/C and heating in main living areas, and a location on 5 acres served by the Ranchitos Community Water System. A transferable home warranty covers all appliances and the roof, and an on-call handyman provides added convenience. Hacienda del Sol is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Galisteo’s storied past, updated for modern comfort and style.
