Crisp, clean lines characterize every room of this contemporary oceanfront home in the gated community of Otter Cove. Strikingly sleek and serene, the three-bedroom, 7,477-square-foot oasis is replete with light and views thanks to expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and walls of glass. Its stylish spaces include an open living room, a kitchen with an oceanfront patio, and a master suite overlooking the sands of the cove. The glass-enclosed indoor swimming pool affords the feeling of swimming alongside and above the waves.
Casa la Luna
Darlene Streit, Sotheby’s International Realty – Santa Fe – 326 Grant Avenue Brokerage
Nestled amid arroyos, rock formations, and old-growth piñon and juniper trees just off the historic Old Santa Fe Trail, 13,400-square-foot Casa la Luna unites a historic 1920s home with a sleek modern addition, nearly every room filled with magical light and breathtaking views. Renowned Jordanian architect Meisa Batayneh designed the new wing, which includes an Olympic-length indoor swimming pool, positioned to follow the lines of the natural topography. Expanses of glass create the sensation of water cascading into the Rio Grande Valley.
