Back to the house. Nearly everyone I talk or network with today is looking for an affordable home to buy to finish their dream of living in Santa Fe, New Mexico and having a lifestyle they can afford in this economy. This graciously middle-aged home built in 1986 does have those benefits. Here is why.

Is there a finished garage with room for storage? Yes. Is the kiva fireplace woodburning? Yes. Does the home have light? Yes, notice the clerestory windows. Is there room for an office? Yes, a bonus room off the kitchen? Can I expand or add a studio? Yes, the .610 acre lot is large for the subdivision and an adjacent neighbor has built a studio. Is the backyard fenced for a dog? Yes. How does the price compare with others in this neighborhood? The asking price is ahead of the market because it takes into account the need for some updating. If I wanted to purchase for investment, what could I rent the home for today? Property managements companies estimate $1700-$1900 per month plus utilties. 

The next open house is on Sunday, February 27th from 1-3 PM. There will be a lender present from New Mexico Bank and Trust as well as the owner of HomeSweetHomeTending to discuss financing and home tending services. If you miss the open house, click on the property link for updates or call Emily Medvec for details.

At last, a Santa Fe affordable home in the DeVargas Heights subdivision located close to everything important, including the hospital, shopping and the Wood Gormley school district. This 2 bedroom, 1505 sq foot home is the right size for downsizing or a starter home. For those who appreciate an ambience of old and new, this home is a gracious blast from the 1980's and surrounded by trees and landscaping. If you are thinking of retiring or ready for a Santa Fe lifestyle, this home will surprise you. 

The floor plan is classic early Santa Fe style with everything off the entry great/living room and its dramatic floor to ceiling wood burning fireplace. The large covered wrap-around flagstone and concrete patio gives you added space for entertaining, cook-outs, enjoying a latte or just daydreaming - sheltered by trees for your privacy and enjoyment. This home could benefit from some updating and that's exactly why it is at this rare new price of $368,000 in this prime Santa Fe location. By the way, this home has no interior steps! 

This home is brand new on the Santa Fe market. If you are a buyer in search of a Santa Fe good deal, then do not hesitate to contact Emily Medvec for the floor plan or more details and pictures or for a showing appointment. Remember, an FHA mortgage requires only 3.5 % down and in most cases it will be assumable when you are ready to move on. If you are tired of just looking in Santa Fe, NM, now is the time to get started on your next move.
