La Pradera, which means "the meadow", is a unique community for those who desire to live in a way that cherishes the beauty of nature and protects its fragile resources. Learn more about homes in the Vallecito community.
Set in a magnificent landscape of juniper-studded hills, endless sky and distant mountains, La Pradera will carry on the tradition for Northern New Mexico of caring for the land, with water conservation a major priority. A state-of-the-art wastewater treatment plant will treat and recycle gray water, which will flush toilets and irrigate landscaping. Another system will manage and distribute storm water throughout the site to restore soil and preserve wildlife habitat. Roads are configured along land contours to minimize disruption of the natural terrain and to optimize drainage.
The La Pradera lifestyle will be strongly community-oriented. Fifty percent of the land is reserved for open space, parks, and trails including a sand volleyball court, Frisbee golf course, children's sandbox and a community fruit orchard. Lots are clustered around three neighborhood parks to encourage the emergence of community, and a lovely meadow with native plants will be a centerpiece of the landscape. And while maintaining a feel of country living, La Pradera offers easy access to education, fitness facilities and the arts with Santa Fe Community College, the Genoveva Chavez Community Center, and the Institute of American Indian Arts all nearby.
Residents of La Pradera will find themselves living in harmony with the land, along with other individuals and families who have chosen a similar lifestyle, all within a development that seeks to sustain the beauty and wonder of the Northern New Mexico landscape.
