Casa Z - with Private Pickle Ball Court

This beautifully kept 1940s home is nestled on a quiet street in the north valley. The 3 bedroom, 2 bath home sits on a lush one-acre property. If you are visiting at harvest time, you'll find plenty of apple trees, pear trees, and grape vines that you are free to enjoy, as you relax in one of the two outdoor patios under the shade of the many indigenous trees.

The gated property is completely fenced and set back from the road with plenty of space for parking, (including space for an RV). The backyard is spacious with grapevines, apple trees, a covered patio, and a private pickleball court.

The newly renovated kitchen is a gourmet cook's dream! The beautiful Talavera tile adds to the authenticity of the Territorial Style home. The open kitchen contains modern appliances and is fully stocked with everything you would need to enjoy a home-cooked meal.

Hardwood and brick floors abound throughout the two main living areas as well as all three bedrooms.

We work with a professional cleaning company that uses a
5 -Star cleaning system. The home is cleaned thoroughly between each reservation.

Fantastic house and fantastic location

I picked Casa Z because of it's perceived location, being more or less centrally located to everything I planned on doing with my family. Well it ended up surprising to the upside! House was PERFECTLY located, clean, spacious, and had a great lot. Worked perfectly for my family with kids and my parents. Highly recommend!

Family reunion and wedding in Albuquerque and Santa Fe

We had a fantastic time in the house. There was plenty of space for four adults--two singles and one couple--as there were two wings, a king bed in one, and two bedrooms with queen bed, each with a bathroom. We loved the kitchen, indoor living spaces, and outdoor sitting areas. The views were great, with grass and plenty of trees, and a view of the mountain in the distance. The host and property manager responded quickly when we needed something.
