Actress Shirley MacLaine, renowned for playing lovable, quirky characters, is also known for her books on such topics as reincarnation and metaphysics.

So fittingly, her pueblo-style property in Santa Fe, NM, comes with a distinct spiritual vibe. And an enlightened buyer will need just $4.3 million to fully experience the place.

Nestled in the mountains and surrounded by trees, the 4.7-acre property abounds with trails and mountain vistas at every turn.

The 6,659-square-foot home’s arched passageways, rounded walls and corners, natural-wood beams, and kiva fireplaces are typical of the pueblo style so common in the Santa Fe area.

Constructed in 1998, the home officially has three bedrooms and a total of six baths, many with discreet windows that allow in natural light.

Two of those baths are part of the spacious primary suite, which also features a large walk-in closet and access to an enclosed deck with remarkable views.

Among the home’s most arresting features are the top-floor, high-ceilinged studio and patio that can be accessed independently from the rest of the house. Ideal for an artist, the space also could be used as a library, an office, or guest accommodations.

As remote as the property might seem while you’re inside it, the home is actually very close to the Bishop’s Lodge Resort and just minutes from The Plaza downtown area, with its restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues.

So far, a buyer for the inspirational abode hasn’t materialized. Records indicate that MacLaine has enjoyed the property since 2005 and first put the place on the market in May for $4,950,000.

In July, it was reduced to its current price.

This could be an excellent opportunity for a buyer who enjoys peace, serenity, the magic of New Mexico’s mountains and deserts, and the legacy of an American icon.
