Tucked discreetly behind gates on the quiet, unpaved stretch of East Alameda, this
exceptional property offers a rare chance to own one of Santa Fe’s Historic Eastside
compounds. Centered around a private, lushly landscaped courtyard, the residence
includes a classic 3-bedroom main house and a charming casita.
The main home is steeped in rich history—its 1929 addition was the very first commission awarded to renowned architect John Gaw Meem. Authentic New Mexican details abound, from hand-hewn vigas to rich wood floors, adobe walls and hand-poured glass windows that speak to the home’s timeless character. The chef’s kitchen anchors the main house, featuring granite countertops, Wolf and Subzero appliances, and luxurious touches such as a pot filler,
wine cooler, wet bar, and generous workspace. There’s a small room off the front portal with its own kiva fireplace – an ideal office. The third bedroom has shelving, a sink and extra studio lighting.
Built in 1991 the casita mirrors the charm of the main house with classic finishes blended
seamlessly with modern comforts. Designed to function as a deluxe primary suite, it
boasts two elegant bathrooms, a second bedroom that could be used as workout room. The primary bedroom has a kiva and doors opening to the courtyard. The central courtyard, ringed with mature aspens and vibrant flowering plants, offers an enchanting backdrop for al fresco dining or quiet moments of reflection. With a new roof and mini splits this home is ready for its new owners to move in and enjoy the summer. It’s rare to find these oversized lots in the Historic Eastside, a one-car garage with extra storage and ample parking—so close to the historic Plaza. Located just steps from the Santa Fe River Trail, Canyon Road galleries and restaurants; this walled compound offers an unparalleled blend of privacy and classic Santa Fe charm in one of the city’s most beloved neighborhoods.
