Which New Mexico village contains the adobe house Georgia O'Keeffe restored and used as a home?

The story behind the answer

The New Mexico village containing the adobe house Georgia O'Keeffe restored and used as a home is Abiquiú.

O'Keeffe acquired the historic Abiquiú property in 1945 and spent several years having it restored. She moved into the house in 1949, the same year she settled permanently in New Mexico. The home’s courtyard, door, walls, and surrounding landscape became closely connected with both her daily life and her art.

Abiquiú is distinct from Ghost Ranch, another important O'Keeffe location roughly farther north. Ghost Ranch supplied many dramatic landscape subjects, while the Abiquiú house offered a more intimate domestic setting. The Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio is preserved by the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. It is widely recognized as an especially direct way to understand the spaces and visual details that shaped her later work.
