Description

Historic Eastside Adobe on a Rare Family Legacy Lot Tucked away on a quiet, private street just off Garcia Street and Arroyo Tenorio, this one-of-a-kind home offers a rare chance to own a true piece of Santa Fe's story. The original structure dates to 1937, built on land that has stayed in the same family since the early 1900s — a connection to the city's past you simply can't recreate. Set on a remarkably generous lot for the Historic Eastside, the property offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths across approximately 1,848 square feet, with the kind of thick adobe walls, character, and quiet charm that define authentic Santa Fe living. An extraordinary in-house studio provides flexible space for artists, home office, or a creative retreat. Artistic craftsmanship is found throughout: hand-carved wood doors, intricate tile work, stained glass windows, and vibrant mosaic murals—created by family members—all imbue the home with personality and provenance. The property includes a 1 car garage and generous grounds, offering privacy, mature landscaping potential, and room to enhance outdoor living. Whether you're drawn to the home's historic bones, the potential to make it your own, or simply the unbeatable location, this is a property with soul. Just steps from Canyon Road's world-renowned art galleries, celebrated restaurants, cultural landmarks, and local markets, yet tucked away on a peaceful residential street — this is Eastside living at its finest: walk-able, historic, and full of character. Ideal for buyers who value authenticity, artisan detail, and a deep connection to local history with modern possibilities.
