About the Property
On a prominent corner just blocks from legendary Santa Fe Plaza, two visionaries have safeguarded a significant piece of local history, the Roque Lobato House. The core of the home dates to 1785, when it was built for its namesake, armorer for Spain’s Royal Garrison in Santa Fe. In the early 20th century, archaeologist Sylvanus Morley—who defined and canonized Santa Fe style—purchased the property
On a prominent corner just blocks from legendary Santa Fe Plaza, two visionaries have safeguarded a significant piece of local history, the Roque Lobato House. The core of the home dates to 1785, when it was built for its namesake, armorer for Spain’s Royal Garrison in Santa Fe. In the early 20th century, archaeologist Sylvanus Morley—who defined and canonized Santa Fe style—purchased the property and expanded the floor plan. The current owners have meticulously renovated the home, honoring Morley’s aesthetic by restoring and maintaining many period details, including hardwood floors, an original adobe wall, kiva fireplaces, an idyllic stone-walled courtyard, and 17th-century beams and corbels.
The traditional zaguan entryway—which offers access to the three-car garage and the secluded guest casita—gives way to stairs that ascend to parklike gardens with lush lawn, mature trees, a lyrical fountain, and a deck with views of the historic U. S. Federal Courthouse and Santa Fe Scottish Rite Temple, both on the National Register. The kitchen has been tastefully updated for modern living, with superior appliances, an island, and Shaker-style cabinets that nod to the home’s early-20thcentury iteration. The circular footprint of the public spaces creates a flow ideal for entertaining, and the stately bookshelf-lined library invites quiet contemplation or private relaxation. For a discerning new owner and lover of history, this represents a remarkably rare opportunity to carry on the legacy of one of the most important properties in Santa Fe.
