Gay Santa Fe

The Gay Community in Santa Fe

FOD-2It has been said about Santa Fe that “our streets are narrow, but our minds are not” and we couldn’t agree more. People always ask; where are the gay neighborhoods or the gay bars in Santa Fe?  A true melting pot, Santa Fe effortlessly blends the Anglo, Native American, International and Hispanic cultures, while embracing its diversity, it is equally inclusive of its LGBT community.

There are a number of questions you ask yourself when researching travel destinations or gathering information for a more permanent move. “Will it cater to my diverse background or my special interest? Will I feel comfortable and accepted?  Is there a sense of community that will embrace me or neighborhoods where I can purchase a house and feel at home?” Below is a list of information to help you answer those questions. I (Mark Banham) fell in love with Santa Fe some years ago and I’ve been helping people make Santa Fe home ever since.

Santa Fe has a very social gay community hosting events from large to small. Whether you tastes run from Trash Disco dancing, mingling with Friends of Dorothy or if you prefer to join in the gay men’s potluck you will definitely find your social niche to enjoy the Gay Life in Santa Fe.

Calling Santa Fe Home either Full time or Part time

While some members of the LGBT community are content with just visiting Santa Fe, many others are choosing to call Santa Fe home, either full time or part time.  We have seen gays making a permanent move to the City Different in all neighborhoods ranging from Aldea, Dos Griegos and everywhere in between.  Others are choosing to purchase condos, a place to stay while visiting Santa Fe. And still others are buying retirement homes now and using them as vacation homes until they are ready to retire. Click here to search for your Santa Fe dream home!

* SOLD (Buyer) *⠀ Paseo Las Terrazas in Las Camp * SOLD (Buyer) *⠀
Paseo Las Terrazas in Las Campanas overlooking the golf course.⠀
.⠀
Only a few years old with some of the builder's warranty still in place!⠀
.⠀
Las Campanas is a diverse community located on the western side of Santa Fe, New Mexico and nestled up against the unspoiled 68,000 Bureau of Land Management acreage there are multiple opportunities in homes and lifestyle in this quiet neighborhood with its views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and private living near the absolute best of amenities.⠀
.⠀
In this community there is the Club at Las Campanas, the golf course, and even more upscale living in the gated section of Park Estates. With the quiet natural backdrop of the untouched wilderness to the west and spectacular views of the mountains to the east as well as views of the Rio Grande Valley and the Jemez mountains Las Campanas is a splendid package of luxurious amenities and breathtaking natural beauty.⠀
.⠀
Only minutes away is the cultural symbolism of Tesuque Pueblo and its well recommended Tesuque Village Market where the combo platter is tasty and the smoked pastrami sandwich a welcome respite after enjoying the sights. Not far away is Santa Fe where downtown there are events, fiestas and festivals to delight everyone. The shops, boutiques, art galleries and fine dining beckon and it could take a lifetime to enjoy them all and take in much of what the Land of Enchantment has to offer.⠀

$395,000⠀
.⠀
Are you looking for a centrally located live/work space that doesn’t cost a fortune? Don’t hesitate then because the condos at 83 Placita de Oro (only 7 total) don’t become available very often. This one is sure to grab the attention of many and move quickly.⠀

Conveniently located only a stone’s throw from the Casa Solana Shopping Center, La Montanita Co-op, Santa Fe River Trail and only 1-2 minutes from Downtown Santa Fe, the location is impossible to beat. Commercially zoned (C-1), the flexibility provided by this space could serve a variety of purposes for someone who wants to both live and work in the heart of the city. ⠀
.⠀
On the 1st floor you’ll find a spacious, well-lit studio/work area, half bathroom and storage closet. Additionally, outside is a nicely landscaped patio to enjoy on Santa Fe’s many sunny days. The upstairs living area is complete with an updated kitchen, full bathroom (shower & tub) and it even has mountain views! ⠀
.⠀
At $175 per month the HOA fee is quite reasonable and covers insurance, water, refuse, sewer, roof & landscaping. HOA covenants specify that commercial uses can be offices, artists’ and artisans’ studios, yoga or pilates studios or similar uses. Currently this unit is occupied by an interior designer which the HOA approved. ⠀
