About this property

Casa Lita – Colorful Historic Home in the Railyard

  • Welcome to Casa Lita — named after the Spanish word for “grandmother” (Abuelita). We wanted every guest to feel like they’re staying at a beloved family home that’s been lived in and loved for generations.

    This historic house was designed by two longtime Santa Fe best friends who’ve been part of the local art scene for over 20 years. You’ll see their creative touch in the bright colors, comfortable furniture, and little details that make the house feel personal and welcoming. With its original 100-year-old wood floors and lived-in charm, Casa Lita is a place where you can truly relax.

    We designed this home with families in mind! You’ll find cozy reading nooks, books, toys, games, and plenty of comfortable spaces for kids to play and unwind! It comfortably sleeps larger groups while still feeling like a real house rather than a showroom.

    Location
    You’re in the historic Railyard District — walk to more than 50 restaurants, shops, galleries, the Farmers Market, and the Rail Runner. It’s lively when you want it to be, and quiet when you don’t.
    What You’ll Find

    5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms
    Parking for 2–3 cars
    Pet-friendly
    Full kitchen with everything you need
    High-speed WiFi
    Loads of comfortable seating

    We’re a small family-run business, and we love hosting guests who appreciate a colorful, comfortable home with plenty of character. If you’re looking for a warm, real Santa Fe experience — this is it.
