Minutes from the Airport, KAFB, UNM, and the historic Nob Hill!

This house is in the perfect spot to stay while visiting Albuquerque for a weekend or a long stay for work or anytime in between. The house is located in the beautiful and historic Ridgecrest Neighborhood just 5 minutes from the Albuquerque International Airport. Also located less than 5 minutes away is the University of New Mexico, Kirtland Air Force Base, Sandia National Labs, the VA Hospital, UNM Hospital and Presbyterian Hospital. Military welcome. Also nearby is the historic Nob Hill district where you can find many of Albuquerque's best restaurants and shops to browse. As hosts we can offer advice on the best local restaurants, shops and fun things to do around town.

The house is 1600 sq ft with large green front and back yards all to yourself. This house has a large master bedroom with raised ceilings, vegas, a ceiling fan and a connected master bath. Two more large bedrooms, another full bath, living room with gas fireplace, dining area and a large kitchen make up the interior. French doors open wide to the shaded backyard patio complete with outdoor table and chairs and a fire pit for those wanting a little evening ambience.. A giant elm tree shades the backyard with peach, apple, fig, lilac and juniper trees ringing the outside. Any fruit in season is yours to take. The backyard is walled in with a high gate so it is perfect for those traveling with a dog. The front porch also opens onto a nice lawn shaded by two large ash trees. Enjoy relaxing by the fire pit after a long day of sightseeing or work.

The Ridgecrest Neighborhood is one of Albuquerque's most well known and beautiful areas with large mature trees, grassed medians, many local parks and a quiet and relaxed neighborhood feel. You will enjoy taking easy walks around this neighborhood and if you are here during Christmas Eve you will enjoy one of Albuquerque's famous luminaria displays on Ridgecrest Avenue.

This will be your home away from home whether traveling to see the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta and it's other sightseeing opportunities or just needing a place to stay for a longer period for work.

Great stay!
We had a nice stay in this super cute house. The kitchen was so well stocked and we really enjoyed sitting in the backyard with the doggies. Lovely landscaping and a huuuge, gorgeous tree! The only down side was that one of the bed comforters had a lot of dog fur on it from a previous guest, and we did find a few cobwebs and a spider/web in the primary bathroom, but other than that it was very clean. And there were plenty of linens to switch out the comforter, so no big deal. Very close to Popejoy Hall- which was super convenient. Alan was great, we would definitely stay here again. :)

Peaceful stay
This is a wonderful.property in a really neat neighborhood. Our dogs loved the greenery in the backyard and our grandson had a blast playing as well. Weblove to cook and the kitchen was very well stocked to do that. The master bedroom is huge and comfortable, and the split plan allows for fsmily to have their own space. This is definitely a "do again". The host was very responsive and check in was a breeze.

Great home away from home
Very clean house in a great neighborhood. We needed to be close to UNM and this was perfect. Very close to shopping malls/stores and restaurants. Owner has a list he suggests. There are also several grocery stores nearby although Google took me to a Whole Foods that was not yet finished being built and to a Walmart that had been shut down so perhaps adding nearby grocery stores to the list provided would be good. The only con to this house is that it is very cold in the winter. There is a fireplace in the living room and heaters in each room but heat does not reach the bathrooms and if you have to use one in the middle of the night or early morning they are freezing. The heaters themselves are also very noisy. They creak all night long. Nothing some earplugs won't fix. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay. If we find ourselves in Alb. again we would definitely stay here.
