The seller even wanted to include the fridge, washer and dryer to make it turn-key. The backyard is a lush green-grass oasis, and then you always have the Santa Fe Village Park and Taylor Ranch Library just five houses down…and the Petroglyphs a mere stone’s throw away.

Rio Grande Nature Center

June 14, 2018 by The Sugar Team

Rio-Grande-Albuquerque-Real-Estate-Sugar-TeamA jogger trots along the River Loop Trail shielded by the shade of shimmering cottonwoods.  A peloton blasts down a paved road along the Rio Grande, decked out in day glow spandex.  An older lady sits at a bench on the riverbanks, meditating on the lazily moving river.  A classroom of hyperactive eight-year-olds run through the fascinating exhibits at the Visitor Center, amazingly absorbing a good 30-33% of what is being explained at every station.  These are some of the many scenes you will encounter at the Rio Grande Nature Center State Park, a wonderful destination-point for people of all ages and interests, and homage to the Southwest’s staff of life, the Rio Grande.Candelaria-Wetland-Rio-Grande-Sutter-Sugar-Albquerque

Located in Albuquerque’s North Valley on Candelaria and Rio Grande Blvd the Rio Grande Nature Center is part of a bosque, or cottonwood forest by the wetland bordering the river.  It boasts some 270 acres of woods, meadows and farmland with native grasses, wildflowers, willows and of course, cottonwoods.  The park’s hub consists of the Visitor Center which was designed by Albuquerque native-architect Antoine Predock, and contains many exhibits on the area’s riparian environment.

And the flora and fauna do not disappoint.  The animals provide the eye candy, with a huge range of species: everything from toads to beavers and great horned owls to woodpeckers.  When I stopped by the Visitor Center I had the pleasure of watching a family of turtles from the comfortable air conditioned Predock-designed Observation Room.

Albuquerque-Rio-Grande-Nature-Center-Sugar-TeamIf meditating on a slow-moving group of turtles (also known as a “bale”) isn’t your speed there are many other active ways at the Nature Center to enjoy the Rio Grande.  The Riverwalk Trail and Bosque Loop Trail provide one-mile and 0.8 mile hikes, respectively through open meadows, heavily wooded areas and along the river.  The paved road along the Rio Grande provides the perfect bicycle superhighway for those who want to go real fast.

The Nature Center realizes the vital role that the Rio Grande plays in the Southwest’s ecosystem.  Since it is the fourth longest river system in North America, measuring some 1,248 miles long, it makes sense that Albuquerque holds it in such grande regard.  My own video Sutter Sugar of The Sugar Team is my own tribute to the Rio Grande Nature Center and the Rio Grande, yet another example why I live to live here in Albuquerque!:

Albuquerque Neighborhood Drive-by–Ciudad Vista

January 16, 2018 by The Sugar Team

Ciudad-Vista-Albuquerque-Real-Estate-The-Sugar-TeamA bicyclist adorned in an absurdly tight, aerodynamic and pastel-colored outfit zips down Tramway Boulevard.  An older couple sets out on a trail, meandering towards the Embudo Trail trailhead.  A dog-walker ambles forward with her brown Labrador, stopping to sniff every last bush, tree and shiny object on the ground.  The Bus #11 Lomas travels down Turner Drive with its one passenger, preparing to make its end-of-the-line U-turn and head West again on Lomas Boulevard.  Is this the scene of a Norman Rockwell painting, set in 2018?  No, this is just a description of Albuquerque’s residential foothill neighborhood Ciudad Vista on a typical Friday Afternoon.

Despite its peaceful, suburban vibe, one of Ciudad Vista’s major draw is its conveniently accessible location.  Greater Ciudad Vista is situated East of Tramway, West of the Sandia Mountains, South of Lomas and North of Copper, and it consists of the micro neighborhoods Grenada Hills, City View Estates and Eastrange-Piedra Vista.  The ‘hood is a mere three minutes (maybe four?) from the entrance to Interstate 40, and the #11 bus travels the length of Albuquerque, making its U-turn on Turner, the central spine of Ciudad Vista.

Ciudad-Vista-Albuquerque-Real-Estate

Albuquerque-Real-Estate-Ciudad-Vista-The-Sugar-TeamBut perhaps the key to Ciudad Vista’s draw is in the name itself.  In Spanish “ciudad vista” means “city view,” which is only part of the story.  In addition to beautiful views of the twinkling city lights from many of Ciudad Vista’s homes, the area also attracts residents because of its mountain views, hiking paths and overall walkability.

What sets Ciudad Vista apart from other Albuquerque foothill communities is the fact that it maintains its top-shelf amenities while keeping real estate relatively affordable.  For example, in 2017 the Median Sales Price was $219,000; the Average Sales Price was $235,460; the Average Price per Square Foot was 119.65 and the Average Number of Days on the Market was 41.

You will find it to be an absolute delight driving through Ciudad Vista, because the lion’s share of Ciudad-Vista-Albuquerque-Real-Estate-The-Sugar-Teamhomes has a Southwest flair without being cookie-cutter.  Most of the homes are single-story, and the architectural repertoire consists of Pueblo Style, Territorial Style, Northern New Mexico and then Brick Ranch.

For these reasons Sutter of The Sugar Team decided to buy his own home in this wonderful neighborhood.

If you would like to buy or sell a home in Ciudad Vista, and work with a Realtor® who lives, works, and knows the area give him a call (505) 850-9977!
