Property Description

Charming Lamy Rail House cradled in the heart of northern New Mexico’s historic railway junction! Built in 2001 as an artist studio, this home has, over the years, housed creatives (including a blacksmith and painter) and many visitors of this peaceful, historic town. The 1,098+/- square foot Rail House, zoned Traditional Community, sits on an expansive, 1+ acre directly across from Lamy’s lush wetlands and less traveled train tracks–the Amtrak still passes through twice a day and Sky Railway hosts adventures frequently. Textured concrete floors throughout help tell the story of this gem’s artful history and exposed vaulted ceilings allow light to fill the space. The kitchen, adorned with wood-burning stove, is a wonderful place to gather in between sunrises, sunsets, or dark, starry night skies on either of the two open framed porch spaces. A secluded loft serves to host visitors, lounge or could be bonus storage space. Other notable mentions include sights to the west of the Mission Chapel of Our Lady of light (believed to have been constructed in 1926) from nearly every room of the Rail House. A one minute stroll to the east leads to familiar landmarks including the treasured Legal Tender Saloon and the Lamy Depot. The parcel extends all the way to The Legal Tender–plenty of space to hitch your horse on the hitching post or watch Sky Railway come/go under the tree canopy. Traditional Community Zoning allows for residential and commercial uses. Greater surroundings include convenient access to the spectacular Galisteo Basin Preserve. The Rail Trail’s most recent extension leads travelers from downtown Santa Fe to the Galisteo Basin--plans to extend the path to Lamy’s center are anticipated. Bike, hike or horseback all the way to Santa Fe! Lamy’s mighty history began in 1879 when the Santa Fe Railroad laid its tracks through New Mexico. The Lamy Rail House is the supreme intersection of history, tranquility and charm–-all just 18 miles from downtown Santa Fe!
