Overview
Welcome home: a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom Pueblo Revival house that feels like a world unto itself--beautiful and peaceful while sitting just minutes from everything the city has to offer. At 1,752 square feet of solid block construction, this is a home built with intention and permanence, the kind of craftsmanship that has aged gracefully.
Inside, Southwest design meets contemporary flourishes. Original hardwood floors run through most of the home, coved ceilings add an architectural intimacy, and a kiva fireplace with a custom southwestern metal screen anchors the living space with warmth and character. A 2021 skylight pours natural light into the hallway, and the home's generous windows mean the light moves through the rooms throughout the day. A private dry sauna makes it easy to leave the rest of the world behind.
Outside, mature landscaping--maintained by a fully automatic irrigation system and dotted with several newly planted fruit trees--creates a lush buffer that makes the property feel removed from the neighborhood around it, despite being in the heart of the city. A garage with a new door (2022) and a carport with a 2024 cedar gate and custom pine door complete the property, while a 2022 full synthetic stucco re-coat means the exterior is as solid as what's beneath it--including a main sewer line replaced in 2018.
For those who love to host--or who want the option to generate income--the self-contained guest suite is a genuine asset. With its own private entrance, full-size refrigerator/freezer, electric hookup for a stove, in-suite washer and dryer, and independent A/C and heating, the suite is fully self-contained. Currently open to the main home, it can be closed off entirely for short-term rental use. The 2019 bathroom renovation sets the suite apart: a custom Talavera shower inspired by a Pendleton blanket, saltillo tile floors, and refinished hardwood in the bedroom make it a space guests will want to return to.
Everything the city offers is never more than 15 minutes away: the airport, UNM, hiking trails, gyms, grocery stores, doctors, and coffee shops. A recently renovated and well-maintained neighborhood park offers tennis courts and a playground.
Evoking the Southwest, bathed in natural light, and surrounded by native birds and trees, this house is a sanctuary to be shared with others.
