Mature trees and leafy lawns near trendy eateries in Heritage Hills
The quiet streets of Heritage Hills are lined with late-midcentury homes, wide sidewalks and leafy landscaping. “It’s not brand new. It has mature trees,” says Patricia Bartolotta, the owner of Re/Max Alliance Realtors. “When you think of New Mexico, you usually think of it as a desert, but [Heritage Hills] has more green trees and grass. A lot of people come from other areas in the city like that.” Though it’s mostly residential, the neighborhood is convenient to stylish local restaurants, big-name grocery stores and highly rated schools. Its largest thoroughfare connects to Interstate 25, which provides an easy commute to downtown Albuquerque as well as other parts of the city.
Pueblo- and ranch-style homes come with generous yards
The residential streets of the neighborhood creep slightly uphill as they head east toward the Sandia Mountains, and wide sidewalks pass in front of neatly xeriscape yards. “Depending on how they’re positioned on the lot, homes can have city views or mountain views,” Bartolotta says. Pueblo-style homes with flat roofs and thick stucco walls are scattered between more contemporary-looking brick ranch-style builds, though the vast majority of houses across the neighborhood were built in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Homes fetch between $320,000 and $500,000 in price, often coming with generous yards, paved back patios and decks. Some on the higher end of the price range feature amenities like in-ground pools, hot tubs and gardening beds. The CAP Index crime score in Heritage Hills is 2 out of 10, which is lower compared to the national average of 4.
