Set within the highly desirable Eldorado community just minutes from the cultural heart of Santa Fe, 16 Jornada Place presents a rare opportunity to own a classic Northern New Mexico residence on an expansive 1.30-acre cul-de-sac lot. This thoughtfully designed 3 bedroom, 2-bath, home offers approximately 2,515 square feet of living space and blends timeless Southwestern architecture with warmth, comfort, and privacy. Originally built in 1990 and lovingly maintained by its second owner, the property reflects a sense of authenticity and enduring quality that is increasingly hard to find.

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by an inviting open floor plan filled with natural light and traditional Santa Fe character. Rich Saltillo tile flows throughout the residence, complemented by striking vigas and wood beam ceilings that create a warm, architectural presence in the main living spaces. Large windows frame the surrounding landscape while filling the home with sunlight, enhancing the connection between the interior living areas and the beauty of the high desert beyond. 1 wood-burning stove, 1 fire place, and a classic kiva fireplace provide cozy gathering spaces and add to the authentic Southwestern ambiance.

The layout offers both comfort and functionality, with a private primary suite positioned to capture peaceful views and direct patio access, perfect for morning coffee or quiet evenings under Santa Fe’s renowned sunsets. Two additional bedrooms sit on the opposite side of the home, offering flexibility for guests, while a possible 4th bedroom, office space or studio compliments the floor plan. The single-level design enhances ease of living, while the detached garage and additional parking provide convenience and storage for vehicles, hobbies, or outdoor gear.

Situated on over an acre of land, the property provides ample space to enjoy the serenity of Eldorado’s wide-open landscapes while still being just a short drive from the restaurants, galleries, and culture of downtown Santa Fe. Residents of Eldorado enjoy access to community amenities including tennis courts, extensive walking and hiking trails, equestrian facilities, a clubhouse, and a popular community center that fosters a vibrant neighborhood lifestyle.

Offered at $800,000, this distinctive property combines classic Santa Fe architecture, generous acreage, and the sought-after lifestyle of Eldorado, making it an exceptional opportunity for those seeking space, character, and proximity to one of the Southwest’s most celebrated cities.
