622 Calle Grillo

In the charming and centrally located Don Diego neighborhood, 622 Calle Grillo is a rare property with great character and flexibility. A two-bedroom main house and a detached one-bedroom casita sit opposite each other on a 0.15-acre lot, each with their own private and ample outdoor spaces. In an age of uniform whitebox houses, this classic build and styled home is refreshing for its connection to Santa Fe’s puebloan architectural roots. Lovingly owned and updated, the property has modern comforts and details wrapped in the warm colors and touches complimentary of its adobe and block construction. Exposed adobe and faux painted walls are the backdrop for an open living, kitchen and dining area that flows to the large backyard. Despite being in the heart of town, the mature landscaping, which includes 70-year-old rose bushes, a large Mountain Ash and gorgeous lilacs and fruit trees, create a treasured sense of privacy. The casita provides opportunities for a future owner, either as spacious guest accommodations or as an income generating asset for short or long term rentals. A short walk to the Railyard, the Cordova shopping center, and the Plaza make this one of the few homes that provide such great value within the epicenter of Santa Fe life.
