Suburban comforts just two miles from downtown Edmond

Named for the railway line responsible for putting Edmond, Oklahoma on the map, Santa Fe offers the tranquility of a traditional suburb with the convenience of urban living. Less than 2 miles from the food halls and mom-and-pop stores clustered near Broadway downtown, residents don’t need to venture far beyond their quiet cul-de-sacs for dining and entertainment. It’s also easy to enjoy a nostalgic drive past the sights on Route 66, America's classic long-distance ride, which rolls through the center of downtown. “You’ve certainly got the best of two worlds in Santa Fe,” says Michael Wallace, a top Realtor with Re/Max at Home. “Nothing beats the neighborhood’s proximity to downtown, but it’s still got that quintessential, quiet suburban vibe that people love.”

Santa Fe is just south of the two Edmond water towers situated on either side of Broadway.

The boxy townhomes in Old Town Lofts deliver eye-catching cool

Traditional and ranch-style homes are common across Santa Fe. Many of these 1990s-era houses have two-car garages and large backyards enclosed by wooden privacy fences. “There’s nothing crazily modern here,” says Wallace, adding that the most outrageous design choice in the neighborhood tends to be a half-stone, half-timbering façade instead of classic red brick. He notes that there’s more variation in price than in architecture. Two-bedroom ranch-style homes list for about $220,000 while newer four-bedroom, five-bathroom homes with high ceilings, open floor plans and multiple stories listed for about $390,000. Old Towne Lofts gets a little avant garde with its boxy modern brownstones, dubbed luxury lofts, which were built in 2021 and sell for about $300,000. “There’s something for everyone here. It’s a great neighborhood for people who are looking for that suburb vibe, whether it's a first-time home buyer or someone looking to upgrade,” Wallace says.

The courtyard at the Icehouse Project sets a communal vibe

Part of Santa Fe’s appeal is its proximity to Downtown Edmond. “There’s a lot of cool stuff to do downtown,” Wallace says. “In Santa Fe you’re only about a mile and a half from the Broadway Extension Highway, the north-south street that runs through downtown, and it’s been revitalized with all kinds of newer developments and shops." One of these newcomers is the Icehouse Project, named for an old icehouse that stocked trains on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railway line. This modern food court – tacos, pizza, ice cream and beer – is backdropped by an art installation evoking an enormous grasshopper. “It’s a sweet statue," Wallace says. "It’s a great photo spot in the middle of the Icehouse." With eight restaurants, the Edmond Railyard downtown is another communal dining hall. Crest Foods is a popular stop for groceries.

Athletics shine at Santa Fe High, home of the Wolves and the Wolf Den

Schools in Santa Fe are part of the Edmond Public Schools District. Sunset Elementary earned a B+ from Niche.com in 2023. Heartland Middle and Santa Fe High earned A grades. “All the Edmond schools are considered pretty good,” Wallace says. "In the last couple of decades, Santa Fe has probably been known best for their competitive athletics.” Niche agrees, ranking Santa Fe High as the third-best high school for athletes in the state in 2023. The school’s football stadium, part of its state-of-the-art Wolf Den athletics facility, provides seating for thousands.

Kids can clamber on the playground and go fishing at E.C. Hafer Park

Kelly Park is a pleasant local green space with a sunny, open field and shaded walking trails lined with benches. The colorful climbing structures and swings nestled under the young oaks make for “a sweet, classic little playground, perfect for the kids,” according to Wallace. Anglers and their kids can cast lines at the kid’s fishing pond at E.C. Hafer Park. This 121-acre green space also has paved multi-use trails and three playgrounds. A few iconic sights line nearby Route 66, also known as the Mother Road, including Pops 66, which sells more than 700 types of soda, and the Arcadia Round Barn.
