40 Canyon Hill Lane

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Santa Fe history, this charming 1935 home offers authentic New Mexico character in one of the city's most sought-after locations: Only minutes from downtown, yet steps away from the Dale Ball trails, the Santa Fe Canyon Preserve and the Randall Davey Audubon Center. The home is surrounded by the Santa Fe National Forest and the Nature Conservancy so privacy and views are protected from future development. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath, two-story home showcases classic Santa Fe details and updates, including a traditional kiva fireplace, Talavera tiles, brick and flagstone floors with radiant heat, an AGA range, and a new full bath with soaking tub. The 2nd floor is an inviting private sanctuary that includes a large bedroom area, walk-in closet, and updated bath. There’s also a bonus space for meditation or relaxing, along with a large deck offering broad mountain and canyon views. The soothing sound of water running in the 150-year-old acequia can be heard from the lower yard Spring to Fall. Take the stone stairway to the upper yard and you’ll find a pollinator garden, old fruit trees, a lighted pergola and deck for entertaining, a hot tub, and a dog run that could easily be converted to a vegetable garden. A detached 2-car garage has a living roof planted with grasses that provide temperature regulation and upper yard privacy and a 220-volt outlet for an electric vehicle. This exceptional Upper Canyon home offers warmth, character, and enduring appeal that defines Santa Fe living.
