Oñate offers vintage homes in the Sandia foothills
Oñate is a vintage Albuquerque neighborhood on the city's northeastern side, an area known for its greenery, parks, and mountainous trails, fostering an active lifestyle. “When [the city] was established this area, these areas, were the first places to really start getting built up,” says Valerie Almanzar, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty who was born and raised in New Mexico. Oñate is built along the Tramway Boulevard Northeast, connecting residents not only to Interstate 40, but also a trail they can hike up to an actual tramway that will take them to the peak of the Sandia Mountains. Toby Rich, a Realtor working for Amazing Properties with a decade of experience, describes the boulevard as a “gem” of the city for this very trail. “If you live on the east side of boulevard, the houses are much more expensive, so a lot of people like this [area] because it’s as close as you can get without spending the big bucks,” he says.
Oñate is known for having clean and safe streets.

Custom-built homes in a variety of styles
Midcentury modern ranch styles with southwestern flair are common in Oñate. "There's a big builder called Mossman here [from the] 1950s and '70s. They built a lot of really nice classic Albuquerque homes," Rich says. "Now, since they are older, they are being updated, and [people] are doing really nice work." Mossman built over 7,500 homes within the city's northeast side and earned a reputation for its craftsmanship. Prices range from around $308,000 to $500,000 for these vintage properties, depending on how large and renovated they are. Lots are spacious, filled with gravel or grass, and sometimes decorated with pebbles. Different varieties of trees and mountain views make for scenic walks along the sidewalks. Oñate also has townhouses ranging from $285,000 to around $309,000.
