8 Arroyo Ridge Road

Description

A rare opportunity in Rancho Viejo! This beautifully renovated single-level 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home was built in 2002 and sits on 1.2 acres with sweeping views of the Sangre de Cristo foothills. Thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, every surface has been touched with care and high-quality craftsmanship. The open-concept floor plan offers effortless flow and versatility. A spacious living room with beautiful viga ceilings and a wood-burning kiva fireplace provides the perfect setting for entertaining. The fully reimagined kitchen features stone countertops, brand-new stainless steel appliances, and two islands—each with bar seating—while the adjacent dining area connects seamlessly to a cozy den with a gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. Step into the backyard and discover a private oasis: a large koi pond with water feature, covered portal with built-in grill, and a separate pergola with a gas firepit—perfect for relaxing or stargazing. The Rancho Viejo trail system is directly accessible from the yard. The primary suite enjoys stunning foothill views, a gas fireplace, direct access to the backyard portal, and the soothing sound of the water feature. The spa-like primary bath includes double vanities, a large walk-in shower, natural light, and garden views. Two guest bedrooms share a full bath in the South wing, while a third guest suite—located privately at the North end—shares a full bath that also serves as the guest powder room. A flexible bonus room near the living area functions beautifully as an office, hobby room, or reading nook. The show-stopper garage can be a 2-car garage with a very large storage area/workshop or a 3-car garage with storage/workshop! On the market for the first time, this home was custom built in 2002 for the current owners, who have lovingly maintained and recently renovated it with exceptional care. This is a rare find and a true Rancho Viejo treasure.
