Santa Fe Serenity - Walk to the Railyard, Dog-Friendly Garden Home
Summary:
Welcome to Santa Fe Serenity, a light-filled home tucked behind private adobe walls just a short walk from the Railyard District. Step inside to warm terracotta tile, skylights, and a cozy living room anchored by a wood stove, then gather around the dining table or cook in the fully equipped kitchen. Two queen bedrooms with ceiling fans and hardwood floors make it easy to settle in, while the walled backyard, with its covered deck, fire feature, and flourishing garden of raised beds and fruit trees, invites slow mornings and golden-hour evenings. Minutes from the Plaza, world-class museums, and Santa Fe's celebrated food scene, this dog-friendly, 1,005 sq ft retreat is the perfect base for exploring the City Different.
The Space:
Santa Fe Serenity is a 1,005 sq ft home tucked behind adobe walls on a quiet street, just a short walk from the Railyard District and within easy reach of the historic Plaza. A gated entry opens to a private, walled property where an open living, dining, and kitchen area is wrapped in warm terracotta tile and brightened by skylights.
Inside, the home blends Southwestern character with everyday comfort: a wood-burning stove and leather sofa anchor the living room, glass globe pendants light the dining table, and colorful local art fills the walls. Two queen bedrooms with hardwood floors and ceiling fans sit just off the main space, and a door from one opens directly onto the covered deck and garden beyond.

Great Santa Fe duplex in wonderful semi secluded area extremely close to the plaza.
Loved the comfort, the space, the decor, ease of operation and condition of appliances, many places to sit outside, fabulous primary suite shower, large TV screen which we’d never appreciated before this.
We absolutely loved this home. It's lovely, well stocked with necessities and in a perfect location to downtown Santa Fe. We would love to stay here again.
This was an amazing home. The decorations showed the lovely traditions of the area and we loved it.
It was cozy and beautiful.
