Enjoy this cozy, 2 bedroom Sandia Heights home. On corner lot, with quiet and tranquil surroundings.

Or use the telescope or binoculars for stargazing or birdwatching. Experience the 'watermelon' sunset hues, while grilling and dining on the outdoor patio.

About Beverly and Philip

Phil had a dental practice in Oklahoma City when he met Beverly (surgical PA in Albuquerque) at a military medical conference 1980. Both were Reserve medical officers (Phil--Air National Guard, Beverly--Navy/Marines), with several overseas deployments. With 2 weeks notice of OEF deployment, Phil sold his house and private dental practice in OKC and moved to ABQ. Days prior to his flight for duty in Afghanistan, they were married by Navy/Marine chaplain in a hot air balloon over Rio Grande in ABQ, the "Balloon Capital of the World". Very befitting for former Air Force pilot and paratrooper chaplain. Beverly proudly carried US flag as her "bouquet". Phil's Dad (94 y/o WWII veteran) was the best man, and one of Beverly's 5 Texas sisters was her maid of honor.
After deployment, Phil worked in group dental practices in ABQ. Currently employed by Pediatric Dental group called "Smiles for Kids". Beverly continued her surgical PA (Otolaryngology) career at the VAMC ABQ, until her last deployment aboard aircraft carrier (USS Eisenhower) in Persian Gulf.
Why This Property?
When this very unique property came up for sale, we jumped on opportunity (literally day before Phil deployed for Afghanistan). We wanted a single level, smaller, and cozier home for our special needs sister who resides with us (if ever needed in the future). But with smaller properties, it is so rare to have these million dollar views! It is a corner property, surrounded by natural and mature lan

When this very unique property came up for sale, we jumped on opportunity (literally day before Phil deployed for Afghanistan). We wanted a single level, smaller, and cozier home for our special needs sister who resides with us (if ever needed in the future). But with smaller properties, it is so rare to have these million dollar views! It is a corner property, surrounded by natural and mature landscaping on 3 sides. Purchased from original owners who maintained and updated property well. We have enjoyed customizing it with original and hand-made Southwest furniture and artwork.
Unique Benefits
Sandia Heights epitomizes all the benefits of living in New Mexico. High altitude, pure air, stargazing, city views & mountain views, and high desert natural landscaping (evergreens and cacti).

Extraordinary views of Sandia Peak and The Tram from the large, trapezoid picture window. And panoramic views outside from the cozy, but unobstructed courtyard, that extends into extensive "open space" and park areas.
Kitchen is well stocked with every gadget/appliance for gourmet cooks, grill-masters, or group entertaining at Holidays (turkey roaster, crockpot, blender, toaster oven, food processor, teakettle). Drip, French press and Keuring coffee makers. Loose teamaker. Mixologists have everything they need to prepare and serve cocktails in appropriate glasses.
For those needing to "take care of business" during their stay, there is corner workstation with writing desk and comfy/adjustable executive chair. High speed internet with either wireless or fixed connections; and printer/copier.

Beautiful Home with Beautiful View & Great Host
Review Submitted: March 30th , 2019
Date of Stay: March 28th , 2019
The home is in the Sandia foothills, with hiking right out the back door. The backyard was visited daily by deer, quail and lots of other birds. The views of the mountains at sunset and sunrise are wonderful. The neighborhood is quiet, yet only 2 blocks from the main road, so we could get to anywhere in town with a short drive. The home is warm and well decorated, giving a great comfortable feel. Beverly is a great hostess. She contacted us in advance, and stocked the home with goodies especially for us and our grand daughter. I can’t imagine a more ideal place to stay.

Getting home in Sandia Mountains foothills
Review Submitted: August 12th , 2018
Date of Stay: July 24th , 2018
Having lived there 20 years ago and a son born in Albuquerque, looking for a home to stay during our summer holidays in New Mexico, we found this home so close to the place we lived in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains. The home is beautifully decorated in Santa Fé style, is very well maintained and equipped and has the most beautiful view of all the homes in that block. Wild animals like deer, bobcat and coyotes come peeking in the backyard and humming birds come feeding from the nectar holder on the porch. Beverly is a wonderful host who does everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible and is passionate to let you learn to enjoy the rich nature, culture and cuisine of the Land of Enchantment
