Santa Fe "Craftsman-Style" Home Provides Convenient and Versatile Shooting Location

The city of Santa Fe possesses a unique and charming atmosphere that is best experienced through its cozy, adobe style homes that meld with the natural high desert environment. Shooting on location inside or around one of these homes can add authenticity and style to any film shot here in the City Different.

Realtor Susan Harris wants you to know about her Santa Fe Style Craftsman Home with Pueblo Style Exterior located at 507 Webber Street, and how it can be the perfect location for filming in Santa Fe. The home was built in 1925 and features hardwood floors, wideboard trim, plaster walls, fireplace and cabinetry. 2 Bedrooms, 2 Full Baths, plus office with high speed internet access. The interior of the home could easily pass for a east-coast or mid-west craftsman or Victorian. Time out for nostalgia: Enjoy the front porch (Portal) – watch sunsets unfold and Santa Fe stroll by.

The Webber Street home is conveniently located in the heart of Santa Fe across from the Capital Building and just blocks away from the city’s historic and culturally rich downtown plaza. Also close to film production offices at the "Old Hospital," within 1/4 mile. Neighborhood has been frequent film location.

Contact Susan Harris for more information via email at susanh@susanharrisrealty.com. You can also reach her by cell, fax, or at home or at work.

Ahern Production and Construction Rentals for the New Mexico Film Industry


One of the foremost reasons New Mexico continues to do so well in attracting films is the easy access to, and quality of, our production infrastructure.

Items procured and services provided in state keep production costs down, increase ease of flow of the shoot, and keeps dollars in-state. Knowing that a production can have everything they need with one phone call and a quick turn-around is a big reason New Mexico is a favored film destination. Michgan may offer a 42% rebate, but it does little good when you have to truck your production gear half way across the country.

The goal of crewnewmexico.com is to highlight and advertise the individuals and companies who make our industry tick. One of the backbone services for the New Mexico Film Industry are construction and on-set production equipment rentals, and we're especially honored to have Jack Smith and Ahern Rentals in our New Mexico Film Directory on crewnewmexico.com.

If you've spent any time on a set in New Mexico, you've probably been lit or moved, hoisted or hauled by a piece of Ahern Rental equipment.

Ahern is New Mexico's leading provider of industrial strength production rental and construction gear, serving nearly all of the major productions that have been shot in New Mexico, including T4 Salvation, Game, Crazy Heart, My One and Only, Transformers Revenge, Brothers, Observe and Report, Breaking Bad, Swing Vote, Kid Nation, and the list goes on.

Their inventory includes gators, generators, light towers, water trucks, scissor lifts, Black Booms 30'-150', augers, compressors, excavators, fans, forklifts, pallet jacks, graders, saws -- everything you'd need for set construction, and daily needs for the set itself.

Jack Smith is the main point of contact/dedicated film industry rep.
