Summary:
Experience unmatched luxury in North Albuquerque Acres. Savor majestic views of Sandia Mountains from the multiple viewing decks or bask in modern comforts in the opulent living area. Craft culinary masterpieces in a gourmet kitchen, and lose yourself in an entertainment suite or regal bedrooms. Outdoors, tranquility awaits in a Zen Garden and a panoramic hot tub. This residence is sophistication personified, nestled in a community where luxury harmonizes with nature. ABQ's Best Vacation Rental

The Space:
Nestled in the coveted enclave of North ABQ Acres, discover unparalleled luxury in a sprawling 4,270 sq. multi-level masterpiece. Every corner resonates with opulence, from the architectural brilliance to the minutest of fittings.

Begin your journey through an ornate, custom wooden door. It unfolds into a grand foyer, radiating a warm welcome, setting the tone for the lavishness that ensues. Straight ahead, the dining realm beckons, bathed in ambient lighting. With seating for 12 across a majestic main table and an auxiliary one, this space becomes the heart for memorable feasts and toasts.

Adjoining the dining area is the viewing deck, where nature's tableau offers a symphony of colors - the majestic Sandia Mountains, the timeless beauty of Sandia Pueblo, and the horizon stretching towards Petroglyph National Park and ancient volcanoes. Two plush loungers await, promising serene mornings and soul-soothing evenings.

The living area is a testament to modern grandeur. A state-of-the-art 75-inch TV stands against tasteful décor, surrounded by seating that invites intimacy and leisure. Sip wine next to the gas fire place with views. Slide open the doors to the second viewing deck. Here, a quartet of seats and a coffee table set the stage for unparalleled sunsets over ABQ's expanse.

Whipping up culinary delights becomes an experience in the gourmet kitchen. Shimmering marble counters play host to top-tier appliances: a versatile Keurig, an efficient Ninja toaster oven, a built-in microwave, and a diverse range of cookware and utensils. An auxiliary room seamlessly extends from the kitchen, offering a second refrigerator and an arsenal of cleaning aids.
The entertainment suite boasts a vibrant game room, ready for competitive Air Hockey bouts or board game battles. Adjacently, a reading sanctuary beckons with its plush couch and inviting reading chair, draped in soft lighting, awaiting whispered conversations or hours lost in literature.

Primary Bedroom
The Primary bedroom is nothing short of regal. Beyond the built-in workstation, it unfolds as a spacious retreat. A luxurious King bed beckons, flanked by modern art pieces, while a cozy sitting area by the fireplace holds the allure of a 65-inch smart TV. The attached bath is a sanctum of rejuvenation, featuring a jetted tub perfectly positioned for mountain contemplation. Step out on the viewing deck to views of Sandia Pueblo Land and the majestic Sandia Mountains.
A wooden spiral staircase spirals down, revealing a world of coziness below. Four meticulously designed bedrooms, each echoing personalized luxury.

Family trip
Our family needed to stay in a larger home to attend my niece’s wedding in the Albuquerque area. We looked at many homes, but really loved this location being at the edge of the mountains. The house was beautiful, clean, and had every extra that we could have imagined. The views were amazing and the quiet neighborhood was great to jog in. The communication with the staff at Irvie homes was great and both the check-in and checkout process was so easy compared to other properties. I have stayed at numerous vacation homes throughout the world over the last decade, and I have to say this was the best one so far! We will probably come back again just for fun next time!

Perfect house for large group
The property was just as described - 5 bedrooms was perfect for 4 couples and 1 small child. House is in a very nice area of Albuquerque and very close to stores and restaurants. Host was very responsive when I asked questions. I would definitely recommend this house and we will most likely book again when we return!

Great location/peaceful setting
Great location in a quiet neighborhood yet easily accessible to main arteries. Beautiful backyard views of Sandia mountains. Wonderful Zen garden. Inside decor was beautiful and soothing. Large rooms and multiple places to relax both inside and out. Garage access made entering/leaving very convenient. Stocked coffee/tea collection was a bonus. Both property manager and host were readily available for questions. No shoes allowed in house but plenty of slippers provided.
