Neighborhoods

Casa Alegre
Developed by Allen Stamm in the 1950s, this delightful Westside neighborhood is sandwiched between Agua Fria and Cerrillos Rd. on the north and south, and bordered by Maez Road and the Indian School on the west and east. This area features close proximity to shopping, schools, and churches, as well as a number of internal parks.

Downtown Santa Fe
Property located within "walking distance to the Plaza" is highly desirable, though there's not a lot of residential property available and very little new construction. You'll find older homes, historic properties, and condos. On the edge of the downtown, the south Capitol district offers a variety of architectural styles, including Victorian homes and Arts & Crafts-style bungalows. Many of the older properties have been restored or are undergoing restoration.

Eastside
The Historic Eastside begins on the east side of Paseo de Peralta and runs up into the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo mountains. On the north, it is bordered by the Santa Fe River and on the south by Old Pecos Trail. Canyon Road is the heart of the Eastside with art galleries and adobe houses that were prototypes for the "Santa Fe Style". Small roads, many of them dirt, meander off Canyon Road. Homes vary from the simplest of structures to the swankiest of estates. In the mountains above St. John's College, Wilderness Gate offers 5+ acre view lots with large, elegant homes.

Guadalupe Historic District
Bordered on the east by the ancient Santuario de Guadalupe, and on the west by St. Francis Drive, this little neighborhood is a collection of beautifully-renovated adobes and up-and-comers. The lots are small and tidy, and the neighborhood amenities include a short walking distance to nearby shops, restaurants and downtown Santa Fe.

Highway 285 SE
Some of the more well-known neighborhoods along the Highway 285 corridor include Alteza, Dos Griegos, La Paz, Mejor Lado, Los Caballos, Tierra Colinas, Los Vaqueros, The Ridges, Cielo Azul, Old Road Ranch, the Art Barns, and East Ranch. Lots typically range in size from 2 - 12.5 acres. Each area has its own distinctive appeal. Talk to one of our brokers about finding the neighborhood that best fits your needs.

Highway 14
NM Highway 14 (NM 14), also known as the Turquoise Trail, is a designated National Scenic Byway in addition to being listed on the New Mexico Scenic Byway System.  The highway passes through an area of rich and diverse qualities consisting of environmental, community, and cultural resources.  Its primary function is to provide access to the existing communities of Golden, Madrid, and Cerrillos, as well as several other developing communities located along the NM 14 corridor. All of these communitities offer beautiful homes and homesites for custom-built homes.

Historic East Side/Canyon Road
With some homes dating back centuries, these neighborhoods offer charm, coziness and an unmistakable air of history. Hosting a mix of multi-generational families and newcomers, eastside houses are often hidden behind high walls and flanked by the narrow trenches of the Acequia Madre, bringing to mind Santa Fe's agrarian past. Where some areas are known for their views, the eastside is known for its gardens. Winding its way through the heart of the eastside is Canyon Road, with its galleries, restaurants, and Friday night gallery openings. Further to the east lies Upper Canyon Road, featuring long-established residences, the upper end of the Santa Fe River, and the Randall Davey Audubon Center, encompassing 135 acres and miles of hiking trails.

Museum District
The Museum District is located south of the Historical Eastside with the Old Santa Trail running through the district just below the Sangre de Cristo foothills. The feeling of the area is country yet it's only minutes to downtown.  The homes found in this district are rarely under $750,000 and many are over $1,000,000. Depending on the orientation of the home, there are views both east and west.  Western views have beautiful sunsets while Eastern views are of the magnificent Sangre de Cristo Mountains or the Santa Fe Ski Basin.

The Museum District derives its name from the four internationally acclaimed museums located in the area.

Northeast Santa Fe
Rolling hills carpeted with piņon and juniper characterize this part of town. Housing choices are a mix of older/historic properties and new, high-end homes. The main developments are Sierra del Norte, Hyde Park Estates, Cerros Colorados, and Santa Fe Summit. Many lots are on an acre or more, and many homes in the area are within a mile of the Plaza.

North Hills
The North Hills rise from Paseo de Peralta and are bordered by Old Taos Highway on the west, the Santa Fe River on the east and Tesuque on the north. Terrain is rolling with small piņons and juniper as one starts uphill, culminating in mountains with spruce and ponderosa pines as one approaches the ski valley. Tesuque is an area of riverbed and meadows - pastoral and picturesque. The Gonzales and Cerro Gordo Road areas are reminiscent of the Eastside dirt roads with houses ranging from humble to expansive. The Old Taos Highway corridor includes condos and family homes on one-plus acre lots. Like the countryside, the real estate becomes more impressive as the elevation increases. Primary subdivisions include Cerros Colorados, Hyde Park Estates, and Sierra del Norte.

Old Las Vegas Corridor
This area is located southeast of the city, in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristos. The feel is rural, with large lots and beautiful vistas - yet you're just a few minutes from town. Lots average five acres. Properties vary from more modest homes to elegant contemporary ranchettes. High-end subdivisions include Arroyo Hondo and Double Arrow. Overlook, Sunlit Hills, La Barberia, and Seton Village are generally less expensive

South Capitol
Located just south of the State Capitol building ("the Round House") and bordered by Old Santa Fe Trail to the east and Guadalupe to the west, this charming neighborhood was established in the early twentieth century and features a number of different architectural styles, from red brick to adobe to wood frame. Tall trees, wide sidewalks and close proximity to downtown give this area a real central-city feel. Wood Gormley Elementary is located in the middle of the neighborhood.

Southeast Santa Fe
This area lies east of St. Francis and generally south of Garcia St. within the City limits. The museum area and on further out Old Santa Fe Trail includes some of the most expensive property in the city. Lot sizes vary from about 1/2 acre to more than five, some with stunning views. Here, one finds homes of all sizes and types.

DeVargas Heights lies east of Old Pecos Trail near Zia Road. It is a mature subdivision of moderate priced ranch or pueblo style homes on lots of about 1/5 to 1/2 acre. You will find homes of about 2,000 square feet, some dated, some renovated, and some new more expensive homes..

To the west of Old Pecos Trail lies Sol y Lomas. Here lots are 1/2 to over 1 acre. There's a country feeling with pinons providing privacy from neighbors. Homes, often over twenty years old, are usually well kept, some ready for remodel, and some updated.

Southwest
The Southwest is bordered on the east by St. Francis Drive and on the west by Cerrillos Road and extends south out Airport Road. It is an area of condos, townhomes and single-family dwellings that is, perhaps, more like most other U.S. cities than any other area of Santa Fe. Roads on the southwest side are paved, streets have sidewalks and houses have garages. Prices here tend to be somewhat lower than the rest of Santa Fe. Most homes are still "Santa Fe Style." Many homes are new and well-built, although some are older and somewhat dated. This can translate into a good buy for a person who doesn't mind doing some cosmetic work. Major subdivisions in this area are: Villa Caballero I, II and III, Las Estancias, Pueblos del Sol, Los Milagros, Las Acequias, Vista Primera and Park Plazas.

Turquoise Trail
The Turquoise Trail is the backroad connecting Santa Fe and Albuquerque, New Mexico. This National Scenic Byway was long used by native peoples, followed by Coronado and New Mexico's most famous frontiersman, Kit Carson as well as French traders and pioneers. In the 1880s, thousands of miners used the trail, unearthing millions of dollars' worth of turquoise from the surrounding hills. Today it connects Santa Fe to the communities of Cerrillos, Madrid, Golden, Cedar Crest and Tijeras, where rustic coutnry living and beautiful views await.

West Alameda
This area includes established close-in family neighborhoods, such as Casa Solana, and further-out (although only about 10 minutes) areas with more land and expansive views, such as Puesta del Sol. The West Alameda district tends to be a good value and has many advantageous features such as proximity to downtown, many view lots, and solid, older construction. The West Alameda district extends from St. Francis west out both sides of Alameda and is bordered by the Santa Fe River on the south and by Paseo de Vista on the north.
