Cerrillos blends Old West history with creative, rural living along the scenic NM‑14 corridor. Set on the storied Turquoise Trail, the village offers easy access to the galleries and dining of Santa Fe and the quirky arts scene in nearby Madrid. Stroll past weathered storefronts and stone ruins, then look up to big-sky horizons that make sunset walks and stargazing part of daily life.
Outdoor lovers head to Cerrillos Hills State Park for miles of trails, interpretive mining sites, and sweeping views of the Ortiz and Sangre de Cristo ranges. The drive itself is a pleasure along the Turquoise Trail National Scenic Byway, linking historic mining towns and contemporary studios. Weekend plans often include a coffee in the village, a hike in the hills, and an evening concert or museum visit up the road in Santa Fe.
Families are served by Santa Fe Public Schools, with lottery-based options such as the college‑preparatory Academy for Technology & the Classics. Lifelong learners appreciate nearby Santa Fe Community College for workforce certificates and degree programs, while artists and makers find inspiration and community across the Turquoise Trail.
Housing ranges from historic adobes to off‑grid retreats and equestrian properties, with services and permitting through Santa Fe County. Whether you’re buying a rustic homestead or selling a view-filled acreage, Agent Pronto can connect you with a proven local real estate professional to make your Cerrillos move seamless.
