Beautiful House of Kachinas near Starbucks and Whole Foods


Beautiful, recently remodeled townhouse with high-beamed living room ceiling, original artwork, stained glass window, kachina dolls, three televisions, lots of books, games, and DVDs. Two bedrooms plus an office/den with a sofa bed that can also serve as completely closed off third bedroom.

Great, central location near the beautiful Albuquerque Academy and many grocery stores, and restaurants including a Whole Foods and Starbucks within walking distance.

Near golf courses, gym and great hiking and cycling. 20 minute ride to old town.

The house is located near Albuquerque Academy in the very safe and much sought after Bear Canyon Neighborhood. It is very quiet neighborhood and most of the residents are retired. It is the type of neighborhood where people own the house for 20 years + or keep the house for more than one generation.

We have had this property for a little over a year. We are proud to say we are getting quite a bit of repeat business.

From guest feedback, we are told one of the best features of the house is the open space feeling. The living room has high beams. There are skylights to the side. It also rather large room for a house its size. It is directly connected to the breakfast nook. The den is also a good-sized room and includes a large screen TV and office space. The den also doubles as a completely closed off third bedroom if needed. Most of the house has been extensively remodeled including new beds, hot water heater and washer and dryer.

You will have to be careful to keep your eyes on the road when driving by the amazing view of Mt. Sandia as you approach the house.

The backyard is barren but pets seem to like it. The beautiful insides of the house and the location more than makes up for it.

Garage and house are directly connected. Due to shelving on each side, the garage is only a single car garage. One can easily fit a medium size SUV. For example, a 2005 Pathfinder has a good 3 feet to spare between rear bumper and garage door. 2nd car parking is available in driveway. Garage height is 82 inches. Contact us if you need exact dimensions of the garage.

Another garage of very similar size was able to back in a 4 door Ford 150 with about 3 inches to spare. So it really is borderline for a full size SUV.

The neighborhood is extremely safe and well lighted. We recently had a guest park a new SUV in the driveway for 6 months without issues and felt comfortable doing so.

Internet: High speed 200mbs down and 5mbs up. Faster on office desk next to modem. Direct plug-in from your computer to modem is available.

We charge $40 pet fee short term stays and additional fees for stays longer than 5 days. 50lb max.

Albuquerque Trip

We were really impressed with everything in regards to this property. The owners were provided very detailed instructions and information and were very accessible for questions. I have never stayed at a rental home (and I have stayed at a lot) that was so well stocked. They even supplied some half and half and coffee ! So needed our first morning after a late drive to arrive. I would highly recommend this beautiful home.

Beautiful Quiet Home

We really enjoyed the neighborhood, lots of restaurants, grocery stores and things to do do, depending on what you loke to do. The Sandia Mountains are literally in your back yard. My daughter and I hiked two out of our three days there, beautifully scenery, The Embudio Trail is Super beautiful and good exercise. Lewis our host was very accomodating. The house has plenty of instructions to help you navigate it.The beds are very comfortable and the house has a very relaxing atmosphere. The location is good for getting where you need to go. If your in Albuquerque, try this wonderful home out!

Bring Your Bike And Running Shoes

My family owned a house in this neighborhood from 1981 to 2023. I love my run route around the Academy and riding up the bike path to the Michael Emory Open Space. 15 minute drive to downtown and the Bosque trails. Very clean and exceptioally stocked. Walking distance to fabulous food and shops.Our hosts were communicative an are invested in the neighborhood. This is one of our favorite VRBO stays.

They’ve thought of everything

Our stay at the katchina house was wonderful. Our hosts thought of everything. We had all the amenities you could think of, spices and oils in the kitchen, extra sheets, pillows and blankets, protective coverings for furniture for our dogs. Also great instructions in the house. Very comfortable and clean. Excellent location. Great views of the Sandias. We will definitely book again !

Great place to explore Albuquerque

My family came to Albuquerque to experience the Balloon Fiesta and had a great time. The place was in a quiet neighborhood and very relaxing. We were only a 5 minute drive to the Hoffmantown Church park and ride for the Balloon Fiesta. Which I would highly recommend rather than driving to the Balloon Park. All the things we wanted to experience were within 15 minute drives. The house was clean and very well supplied with household supplies like dish soap, garbage bags, sponges, and dishwasher soap. There was also a basic cooking supplies like salt, spices, and oil. Kitchen was also supplied with a coffee maker, microwave, oven, toaster and plenty of pans/dishes that made cooking easy there. There is also a selection of stores near by. Overall we had a great time in visiting Albuquerque and a large part of it was having a relaxing place to go to each night.

Highly Recommended

Very spacious and clean accommodations. Bedrooms are very far apart. (Could be a + or a -) The kitchens and bathrooms were very well-appointed and had plenty of supplies. Very quiet neighborhood. Garage with remote opener was much appreciated. Lewis, the owner, was very nice and helpful. The only negative for us was the lack of space to relax outside.

Rare gem. The house is clean, convenient location and well stocked for dining, relaxing and working. All the appliances were in wonderful shape and the house has plenty of room.

Kachina House

This property was very well equipped and was very clean The yard was fine for the dogs although a little muddy from snow and rain. The owner went out of his way to make us comfortable and even provided a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. There were more than enough GOOD towels and plenty of bedding. I would highly recommend staying at this property if you will be in Albuquerque.
