Your property
Perched above the valley on the highest point of the Land, Sky Home offers a front-row seat to one of the most iconic views in the American Southwest. From its expansive deck and sun-filled interiors, you’ll take in sweeping, unobstructed vistas of the Pedernal—Georgia O’Keeffe’s beloved mountain muse—and the rolling contours of the northern New Mexico landscape. The sunsets and sunrises here are nothing short of transcendent: the sky ignites in shifting hues, casting long golden light across the valley below.
