1024 3rd St, Las Vegas, NM 87701

Located in a Las Vegas neighborhood with many beautiful historic homes, this lovely Victorian exudes the character and warmth of turn-of-the-century architecture. Built in 1910, when Las Vegas was a thriving cultural and business hub—prior to New Mexico’s statehood—this home sits on three city lots (0.24 acre) and blends rich historic detail with thoughtful updates. Step inside to a classic Victorian double parlor, where the living and dining rooms are elegantly separated by tall original pocket doors. You'll find high ceilings, a large bay window, original hardwood floors, and untouched wood trim, all contributing to the home’s airy and light-filled charm. The formal dining room and spacious, open kitchen flow directly onto a wraparound wooden deck—perfect for brunches, quiet afternoons, or evening gatherings under the stars. A stone and frame addition built in 1980 includes a full bathroom and separate entrance, offering flexible options for use—a primary or guest suite, art studio, or potential rental/Airbnb space. A finished converted attic provides even more functionality, ideal for a cozy bedroom, home office, or creative retreat, complete with a sweet reading nook. The fully fenced backyard is ideal for gardening, entertaining, or letting pets roam. It features a rainwater catchment cistern, chicken coops, and a towering 12-foot lilac hedge that adds privacy and seasonal fragrance and color. In the front yard, a stone bench set among sage creates a peaceful garden nook, just waiting for your creative touch—or a pergola. An open garage and storage shed provide additional storage and workspace. The home has seen major repairs and recent updates, including: roof on addition, sewer line, hot water heater, plumbing lines, flooring, new washer/dryer and dishwasher, fencing, chandeliers, ceiling fans, and fresh interior/exterior paint. This lovingly maintained property now awaits its next chapter—a historical labor of love, ready for your final touches and customizations. All this just walking distance from the Carnegie Library, schools (including New Mexico Highlands University), shopping, and entertainment. Easy to show. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Las Vegas history.
