Location: Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA (Across from Tiguex Park, 1.5 Blocks from Old Town Plaza) View Map
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 7)
The Old Town house in the museum district is an authentic adobe, built c. 1902. A recent complete systems update adds modern comfort to the rustic Southwestern charm of this old territorial style house. Across the street from Tiguex Park and about a block and a half from historic Old Town Plaza, the location is unmatched. Three bedrooms and two baths accommodate 6 (2 queen beds and 1 full bed). The en suite master bath features a claw foot tub, the second bedroom has a gas Kiva fireplace, and soft lighting is achieved in all three bedrooms with chandeliers.
An open floor plan connects the living room and kitchen. All kitchen appliances are stainless. An adjoining sitting room (with its own Kiva fireplace) allows views of the park through a side lit French door. The dining room seats 6 comfortably.
With original wood floors, beamed ceilings, and foot thick walls, this house evokes the romance of the Old West, and is a fantastic base for your Albuquerque adventures.

Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Albuquerque
I have become enthralled with the New Mexico vibe, and Albuquerque in particular. Found myself looking down range at Navy retirement (just a few years now (!)) and bought a 100+ year old adobe house in Old Town. Perfect eventual home plate and launching pad for further adventures. Have really enjoyed sharing the Old Town house with people who seem to enjoy Albuquerque just as much as I do.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The way the air smells, sharply blue sky, fab food, great people, public art. I adore being able to walk to the museums across the park and take in live salsa music in the summer time in the Plaza. People are friendly and real. Also, Christmas is magic. Christmas Eve with thousands of luminarias is not to be missed!
Across the street from Tiguex Park, with the Albuquerque Museum (art and history), Explora! (the children's science museum), and the Natural History Museum.
