Juan Tabo Hills
Spacious homes with desert landscaping and mountain views
Drive through Juan Tabo Hills and the vast surrounding open space will strike you. Much of the neighborhood’s appeal is in its location: far enough from the city to feel quiet and tucked away but close to the highway, a significant selling point for Romero. Homes range from 1,400 to more than 3,500 square feet and sell in the mid $360,000s or higher. Streets are spotless, and lots are uniform with desert rock landscaping and small shrubs. Pride of ownership is evident on every block. A network of sidewalks connects neighbors for a friendly vibe. “Everybody’s always out walking, jogging or playing with their dogs,” Romero says.Stucco-and-tile exteriors and two- to three-car garages are standard, while many properties, such as those offered by builder Paul Allen Green Homes, are built with sustainable materials. Homes with no rear neighbors provide excellent views of the Sandia and Manzano mountains. Outdoor living spaces entice for barbecues and playtime with kids. Most properties in Juan Tabo Hills are move-in ready and stay on the market for a month. If low-maintenance living appeals to you, the townhomes of Volterra Village offer open floor plans and bedrooms on both levels. Expect to pay about $350,000 for a three-bedroom, 1,600-square-foot unit. Homeowners’ association fees cover overnight security.

The school’s dozens of clubs and extracurricular activities include NJROTC for the military-minded and an eSports club for gaming enthusiasts. A competitive athletics program has earned state honors in football, soccer and track and field.
