1445 Santa Cruz Drive

Description

Classic Santa Fe charm, flexibility, and income potential come together at 1445 Santa Cruz. Originally built by the renowned Allen Stamm, this thoughtfully maintained property offers a rare opportunity for investors, owner-occupants, or buyers seeking a guest casita or multigenerational living arrangement. Currently configured as two adjacent residences totaling approximately 1,829 square feet, the property can serve as an income-producing investment with two rentable units, serve as an owner-occupied home with income generated from the rental of the second unit, function as primary residence with private guest casita, or potentially be reimagined as a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence with an expansive family room. The main residence features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath with timeless Santa Fe character throughout exemplified in Stamm-built home, including beautiful vigas, narrow-plank hardwood and tile flooring, and a traditional kiva fireplace anchoring the living room. The adjacent 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit offers an inviting bright and airy atmosphere with a spacious and high-ceilinged great room that combines the kitchen, dining, and living spaces in an open floor plan. Both units enjoy their own distinct and generous outdoor living areas, creating privacy and flexibility for owners, guests, or tenants. Set in the heart of town, one can walk or bike to a nearby cafe and then onto the bustling Railyard district. Versatile properties with authentic Santa Fe architecture, separate living spaces, and strong investment potential rarely become available in this price range. The home has been exceptionally maintained with recent improvements including new appliances in both units, stucco maintenance and roof maintenance with a transferable two-year warranty.
