Unwind with two bedrooms and full working study. Forget tension and stress in the large master bath jacuzzi. Get it all done in the fully-equipped laundry room . Cook up a feast in the well-equipped, spacious kitchen. As the sunset mountains turn red you can take to the portales with mountain views.
The space
The house is all on one floor. One step up from the sidewalk into the entryway and you are there.

There is a breakfast room for casual dining and a larger dining table in the main living area. The master bedroom suite is spacious containing a walk in closet and large bath with jacuzzi, separate shower and large dressing area. A large covered patio, the portales, provides a great place for dining with table and chairs, gas grill under the portales.

The home was beautiful! We had such a good time on the patio, the unique lighting in the alcoves were a gift in the morning and at night. It’s the BEST vrbo we’ve ever stayed at.

Albuquerque Delight
This home was in a perfect place for family base of operations. Close enough to everything from Santa Fe to Madrid to Chimayo. Tastefully appointed and equipped. The backyard with its fountain was an oasis every evening. Will book it again next year.

An amazing week in a beautiful home
We stayed here for the Balloon Fiesta and had a great time. Close to anything you could need and great views of morning launches while drinking coffee in back yard. Hosts were great and the house was everything we expected. 👍😁

Enchanted NM Week
The house is as delightful in person as the photos show! We loved the mountain view, babbling fountain, morning sightings of hot air balloons, the well-appointed kitchen, comfortable beds, the overall charm of the bright, art-filled space, and the peaceful neighborhood so close to many amenities. Joseph was a responsive host. My two teens and I give a hearty thumbs up!

Comfortable space with great local flair
First, I have always been a “let’s just get a hotel” person after a few questionable rental experiences, but this fully changed my mind. Great communication from the host and seamless check-in. House was above and beyond expectations, with great local character and gorgeous art. Thoughtful details like easy instructions for everything in the house, cozy outdoor blankets for the chairs on the patio, and much needed coffee. Highly recommend for anything that brings you to the Albuquerque/Rio Rancho area!
