What was the name of Georgia O'Keeffe's home and studio near Abiquiú that she acquired in 1945?

The story behind the answer

Georgia O'Keeffe's home and studio near Abiquiú was the Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio, acquired in 1945.

O'Keeffe bought the abandoned adobe house in Abiquiú in 1945 and spent years restoring it. The property included a distinctive courtyard wall and a door that became important subjects in her paintings.

She began living there part-time in 1949, after Alfred Stieglitz's death, and used the house as both a residence and a working studio. The building's architecture, shadows, and surrounding landscape became inseparable from her later New Mexico imagery.

The property is distinct from Ghost Ranch, where O'Keeffe also lived and worked. It is now preserved as a National Trust for Historic Preservation site and is open to visitors through tours.
