Guest Access:
Moderno Velo can be a bit tricky to find since Google Maps does not seem to have the location correct. From Redd Road head East up High Ridge Drive. Make a left on Franklin Hills Street and then a right on Franklin Bluff Drive followed by an immediate left on Franklin Dove Ave. Follow Franklin Dove Ave to Desert Mirage Place and make a left. Home is at the end of Desert Mirage Place. WARNNG: Google Maps does not have the location correct and will have you turn off Franklin Dove Ave prematurely, make sure to follow Franklin Dove Ave all the way to Desert Mirage Place. Mapquest does have the location correct.
The Neighborhood:
Moderno Velo is located in a very upscale neighborhood in El Paso, Texas consisting of all custom homes in the $400k to $2 million price range.
