24 Cochiti Trail Angel Fire, NM 87710

Tucked into the trees along Cochiti Trail, this one-of-a-kind mountain home feels like something out of a storybook -thoughtfully designed, full of light, and rich with character at every turn. Set on 1.86 acres of mature pine and aspens, the setting offers privacy, tranquility, and beautiful mountain views that shift with the light throughout the day. Built with intention and efficiency in mind, the home features a solid concrete frame that provides exceptional thermal mass, complemented by thick straw bale walls and abundant south-facing windows for passive solar warmth in the winter and natural cooling in the summer. The result is a home that feels as good as it looks - comfortable, quiet, and deeply connected to its surroundings. The lower level offers two spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a welcoming recreation room complete with a billiards table and a custom-built Murphy bed - perfect for hosting guests, game nights, or flexible additional sleeping space. Even here, the windows bring in soft natural light, adding to the home’s inviting feel. The main living level is the heart of the home, where vaulted ceilings, wood floors, and expansive windows create a bright and open gathering space. The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly together, anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove. Step outside to not one, but two, exceptional outdoor living areas - spacious decks designed for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. Outfitted with high-quality furnishings, these outdoor spaces feature stylish and durable Creekside furniture, a Camp Chef pellet grill for effortless outdoor cooking, and both a Gensun eight-seat dining set and a handcrafted Amish eight-seat table - creating inviting spaces for everything from casual afternoons to memorable gatherings under the trees. A fire pit completes the setting, offering the perfect place to unwind beneath the Angel Fire sky. The top level is dedicated to an expansive primary suite - a true retreat above it all. With stunning windows that bring the outdoors in, a private ensuite bath, and its own secluded deck, this space invites quiet mornings with coffee and peaceful evenings with a glass of wine, all set against elevated mountain views. Beyond the home itself, the outdoor spaces have been thoughtfully enhanced to create something truly special. A whimsical playscape area - complete with swings, slides, a climbing wall, and elevated platform - offers a magical place for play, bordered by railroad ties and cushioned with rubber mulch for both durability and comfort. Nearby, a charming rock-lined pond and seasonal stream adds a peaceful, storybook touch to the landscape. For those seeking space to create, work, or tinker, the newly constructed enclosed garage on a concrete pad is a standout feature. Outfitted with electricity, abundant outlets, and generous lighting, it offers incredible flexibility as a workshop or hobby space, complete with a loft area for additional storage or creative use. With three levels of thoughtfully designed living, multiple outdoor retreats, and a setting that feels both private and connected to nature, this Cochiti Trail home is truly a rare and special offering - equal parts retreat, gathering place, and everyday escape.
