The best-laid plans are many times the best-made plans. The Santa Fe neighborhood of Aldea certainly proves that axiom. A unique and meticulously planned community located approximately 12 minutes northwest of the historic Santa Fe Plaza, Aldea embodies the essence of a modern village that harmoniously blends with the stunning New Mexican landscape. Aldea is considered one of the brightest stars of the Santa Fe real estate scene. Designed with a strong emphasis on community and the natural environment, Aldea offers a mix of residential options, from charming townhouses to luxurious single-family homes, all arranged thoughtfully within its 345-acre expanse.
With the picturesque Sangre de Cristo Mountains as a backdrop, the adobe-style houses of Aldea line the streets, adorned with colorful desert gardens. The scent of piñon wood fills the air, adding to the serene and artistic ambiance of the neighborhood.
