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.

Family weekend in NM
We enjoyed our visit to ABQ over the holiday weekend, we are NM born and raised and currently live in Utah. It was quite the treat to stay in the Los Arboles neighborhood for our Labor Day weekend visit to NM to visit with our family. This house met all of our needs to spend a long weekend with family.

Charming all around
We had some friends in town for a small business convention, and needed a place that could accommodate a few of us. The property is in one of my favorite neighborhoods and the grounds and the house are very beautiful and charming. Communication was excellent, everything went smoothly and easily, and our stay couldn’t have been better. Thank you!

Lovely, spacious home & yard in a quiet safe neighborhood.
Highly recommend. We had a few unexpected issues during our stay, but overall, the property couldn’t have been better for a 7-person family celebration. The house is nicely appointed, the kitchen is well supplied & the beds were very comfortable. Very clean & conducive to relaxation. Lovely grounds/huge cottonwoods in back yard.

Valley comfort
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful old house on a huge lot in a great neighborhood. We were just a few blocks from my sister's house in the valley. It was both comfortable and convenient. But I always find the best houses. There were great walking trails nearby.

Casa Z Christmas Stay
We had a wonderful stay at this home in Albuquerque. We spent Christmas in New Mexico, and this was the perfect “base” for going between family and activities. The house is so welcoming, so New Mexico, and just wonderful. We didn’t want to leave! The backyard is a great space, especially if you had younger kids would want to stretch their legs. Location is safe and easy to get to places. Host and property manager are quick to respond, give clear instructions and had everything ready for us. Even a Christmas tree!! We will look forward to staying again when we go back “home”. Sarah Wolfe & Family

Wonderful home in a good location
House was spacious and easily accommodated 6 family members in town to celebrate a granddaughter's wedding. Convenient location to Old Town, Pueblo Indian Museum, Sawmill Market, and Rio Grande Nature Center State Park. Patios front and back were very pleasant for outdoor dining, and we appreciated the laundry facilities. Property manager Audrey responded promptly to our questions about the house and to a minor problem with the kitchen sink disposal. We were delighted with the property and would stay here again if we return to Albuguerque.

Convention home
We had a wonderful time at this home away from home. We came for a convention and found the house to be very comfortable. The family room, front outside table, kitchen table areas were our main hangouts to enjoy the serenity of the green oasis. There was plenty of space for us. The evening walk on the street was very pleasing to enjoy the sunset and meet the neighbors. We were a 10 min drive to the convention center. We decided to definitely look at this house again when visiting Albuquerque.

The property was very clean. The kitchen had everything you need to cook. The host communicated quickly and efficiently. The king size bed was super comfortable. The bedrooms and kitchen/dining were quite warm as the air conditioning didn’t really reach them. We enjoyed our stay and the easy access to different areas of New Mexico.
