Step into Santa Fe history in this captivating 2,041+/- sq ft pre-war home, where artistic vision meets sustainable living just five blocks from the world-famous Santa Fe Plaza. Ideally located just outside the Historic District boundary, the property offers downtown proximity without historic review requirements for future renovations. This unique 3-bedroom, 2-bath home enchants from the moment you enter through the whimsical front gate by renowned Galisteo artist John Massey. Remarkable historic character includes original Santa Fe Penitentiary fencing enclosing the entire lot with original iron keys. Venetian plaster finishes and tile flooring downstairs add authentic Southwestern elegance, while hardwood floors grace the main living area and two upper-level bedrooms, complemented by a cozy wood-burning kiva fireplace. Sustainable features include south-facing passive solar design with a naturally cool bermed lower level, a 1,400-gallon underground rainwater collection system, mature low-water gardens, and organic raised beds cultivated for 18 years. A super-efficient 92% Lochinvar hydronic heating system, induction cooking, double-pane low-E windows, and a recently recoated 2025 roof enhance efficiency and comfort year-round. Outdoor spaces create a true sanctuary with a stone and sculpture garden, mature pond with koi, water lilies, and aquatic plants, plus an outdoor kitchen and dining pavilion with fireplace built from reclaimed Santa Fe Plaza brick. Two separate living areas with independent entrances offer flexibility for guests, home office, or rental potential. The downstairs entrance can be converted back to garage access if desired. A rare opportunity combining historic character, artistic flair, modern efficiency, and flexibility just moments from the Plaza.
