Nearly a century ago, sheep grazed freely along the hillsides of this once single-family compound. As time went by, parcels were separated and given to family members to construct their domiciles. This residence, like many others of its time, started with a basement dug by hand. The dirt was then used to create the adobe bricks to create this authentic adobe home which has been a haven for the family for many decades. Part of the original Garcia Family compound, this quaint home is now being offered for the first time outside of the family. The genuine adobe home located on idyllic Garcia Street in the heart of Santa Fe’s east side offers amazing potential and possibilities. The central location on Garcia Street means you can walk daily along quaint old-world streets shaded by Ponderosa pines under turquoise blue skies. Whether you’re walking destination is to the local coffee shop, the art galleries along Canyon Road, or simply just following the meandering Acequia Madre, you’ll never be more than a few minutes from your front porch. The owner has maintained the property with recent improvements including a newer roof, newer windows, and a newer boiler. Bring your imagination as this is an iconic example of the traditional home of Santa Fe’s historic east side and it awaits the interpretation of the modern eye.
