North Valley Albuquerque Homes and Real Estate

North Valley Albuquerque homes and real estate are often surrounded by an environment of peacefulness.  Winding streets, long, narrow parcels, acequias, and fertile
landscapes fill the North Valley landscape.  Many homes sit on lush acreage, surrounded by colorful
gardens, small orchards, and ancient cottonwood trees.  Because many homes are set on one acre or
more sized lots, this is one of the few areas in Albuquerque where the city permits horses.  It is also
common to see chickens, llamas, peacocks, and goats roaming in people's backyards.

Existing housing is very diverse in price, size, quality, and type.  Most residential areas are marked with
custom individuality and character, as it is not uncommon to see a 800 sq. ft. 50 year adobe sitting
alongside a new, half a million estate. Communities and subdivisions located in the North Valley, Near
North Valley, and Far North Valley areas include the Village of Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, Mathew
Meadows, Los Duranes, Los Poblanos, Vista del Norte, Guadalupe Trail, Los Duranes and Dietz Farms.   
 
Bordered by the Rio Grande River, near the cottonwood tree filled Bosque, and lined with acequias - or
ditch banks-, the North Valley region offers plenty of walking, biking, and running trails.  Here you will
find many wildlife and botanical experiences, such as those offered by the Rio Grande Nature Center.  
The Rio Grande Community Farms is 140 acres dedicated to community farming, wildlife crops, and a
school garden. Every Saturday in during summer and winter, the Los Ranchos de Albuquerque village
celebrates the earth's bounties at their growers market, providing locally grown fruit, vegetables,
flowers, and other wonders.  Other places of interest include Plants of the Southwest, Los Poblanos
Organics farm, the Corn Maize, several wineries, Out of the Blue educational toy store, Flying Star,
Bookworks independent bookstore, Betty's Bath and Day Spa, Annapurna Chai House, High Desert
Yoga, and La Montanita Coop Food Market.
