About this property

Historic Hacienda de Encina

Hacienda de Encina is a lovely adobe home located between Museum Hill and the Plaza. It is within minutes from Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Natural Grocers, and Albertsons. The home is an excellent home to set up a "work from home" situation. Have your morning coffee on the north patio and relax in the evenings on the East facing portal.
Most of our wonderful restaurants are available for outside dining and curbside pick-up.
Enjoy the mountains on your days off.

The space has excellent WIFI and desk/tables for working at home.
It is also an excellent home to rent while looking to buy a home in our wonderful city.
Great family home!!!

You will find Hacienda de Encina's living room a great space to catch up with family as you relax around the wood burning stove or with the kiva fireplace for Santa Fe charm. When you are not enjoying Santa Fe’s many excellent restaurants, you will find Hacienda de Encina’s fully equipped kitchen, dining room and patio a wonderful alternative. On summer evenings or mornings, relax and enjoy the private, enclosed patio with BBQ. The large East facing portal is wonderful for watching rainbows, rainstorms and rabbits.

Explore Santa Fe History! This classy traditional Santa Fe adobe is owned by me, the
granddaughter of the original owners, a multigenerational northern New Mexico family. This beautiful home was built in the 1960s by a prominent Court of Appeals Judge from Las Vegas, New Mexico and his lovely wife with roots in Taos, New Mexico. The home was treasured as “Grandmother and Papa’s house”. The Spiess family was instrumental in the founding of the state of New Mexico and the constitution of New Mexico. History available in the home and New Mexico History Museum.

Master Suite has a king-sized bed with in-suite bathroom with shower
Guest Bedroom 1 has a full size bed.
Guest Bedroom 2 has 2 twin beds that can be put together to form a king-sized bed.
There is a full sized fold up mattress that can be used as an extra sleeping space.
Additional twin bed is available upon request

In Summary:

Beautiful patio with BBQ during the evenings
Front porch for morning sun, rabbits and rainbows
Dishwasher, Microwave, Toaster Oven, Coffee Maker (Keureg and regular coffee pot)
Full equipped kitchen
Cable TV
WiFi
Washer & dryer

WONDERFUL place for a family gathering!!!!

Note: I live in a casita at the back of the property. An occupied apartment is located on on the north side of the property as well. We all have private driveways and entrances.
I will be around if needed only.

Family trip
We traveled with our adult sons and daughter and this house was just right for our needs. It’s in a good neighborhood and we all felt comfortable there. We briefly met the host and she was friendly and accommodating.

Great stay in Santa Fe!
This home was perfect for our group of five. It was close to downtown, and we had plenty of space. The home had everything we needed and more.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Lacey

Host profile image
Granddaughter of original family owers, Waldo and Harriett Spiess. I have lived in this home since the death of my grandmother in 1988. I have raised my 2 children in this home.
I am a speech, language pathologist that specializes in working with children. I love children, time with friends and traveling.

Why they chose this property

This home has been in the Spiess family since the early 1960s, when my grandparents had this home built. I have been coming to this beloved home ever since. At that time the streets going downtown were dirt and the interstate I25 was not complete coming from the north. It has been amazing to watch Santa Fe change.
I have always loved Santa Fe and continue to find Santa Fe most enchanting!
I am sure you will agree.

What makes this property unique

Centrally located to the Santa Fe plaza, museums, and Canyon Road. Close to Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and other grocery stores. Numerous delicious restaurants within minutes from the house.

Lovely patio for morning coffee or evening BBQ. Large East facing portal has comfortable chairs for viewing rainbows, rainstorms, and rabbits. Washer and dryer in master bathroom.
