About this property

Renovated historic home, Quick walk to Plaza, Railyard District and Canyon Rd

Circa 1885 is a beautifully renovated, historic, open-floorplan home in downtown Santa Fe only a few blocks from the City Plaza, Canyon Road, Railyard District, museums, concert halls and the NM State Capitol Building. The home is spacious with 11'-12' high ceilings that welcome in the beautiful Santa Fe light, a modern full kitchen with dishwasher and gas range, a kiva instant on gas fireplace for cozy evenings and a private portal (porch) for sunny afternoons. The massive center adobe wall that divides the living space from the bedroom and bath was lovingly saved, reinforced and plastered as a sculptural homage to the home's legacy. Furnishings include a 19th Century Austrian Walnut wardrobe, luxurious solid wood four poster queen bed, an antique marble-topped vanity retrofitted with a vessel sink, Mitchell Gold & Bob Williams love seat and original lithographs from the 2019 Student Portfolio of UNM's prestigious Tamarind Institute. Immerse yourself in Santa Fe's rich heritage by making "Circa 1885" your home-base in Santa Fe.

Our commercial laundry service – the same laundry service used by most high-end hotels in Northern New Mexico - uses unscented, hypoallergenic detergent and extremely hot water. Sheets are lightly starched and ironed at 385 degrees.

Week in Santa Fe

We came to celebrate some friends’ anniversary and found this location to be ideal for visiting the Capitol building, historic Santa Fe, the plaza and the Rail Yard district. The vacation rental was very clean and included helpful amenities.

Perfect Retreat

I was here by myself for a photography workshop. This turned out to be a perfect place for me to relax at the end of the day, to get wherever I needed to go -- the Plaza, food, my classes. It was comfortable, my hosts were gracious and responsive, and best of all, it had that Santa Fe feel I was looking for.

Convenient and Cute!

Husband and I visit Santa Fe frequently and this is our favorite place to stay. The home is small, but all we need as a couple. Without being right on the square, the location can't be beat. We always walk to our favorite spots near the plaza or in the railyard. No more than 10 minutes to get there. June 2025 was our second stay here and we would absolutely do it again.

Anniversary trip

We really enjoyed our stay at Circa 1885! The location was ideal, walking distance to the Plaza and the Railyard area! There is a really great Farmers market in the Railyard Saturdays. The unit was super cute and perfect for two people. We really appreciated the drinks and snacks upon arrival! Don’t hesitate to book here!

We had a wonderful time. I really appreciated the detailed driving directions as well as the checkin information. A few things to note:[1] For us older folks, ADA bars in the bathroom and shower would be very helpful. [2] The gas fireplace really doesn't put out any real heat. Last couple of nights got kinda chilly. [3] We know and understood that the front door was new, but it really took some effort to open & close.
