Albuquerque, NM offers so many great options for horse enthusiasts to want to forget about paying for expensive boarding for a horse, and for the ever-increasing gas costs to then drive from home to the stable to exercise and ride that beautiful animal.

Albuquerque is probably one of the few cities anywhere where one can live right in Albuquerque proper, less than 15 minutes commute from Downtown, Uptown, and the Airport, and still have a couple of acres of peaceful, serene horse property to come home to!

Albuquerque's North and South Valley areas offer large numbers of both small, modest horse properties and also large equestrian estates suitable for professional breeding and training. The South Valley, in particular, abounds in reasonable priced beautiful homes that provide space for your favorite equine friend (or for cattle, llamas, or ostriches, for that matter.)

The virtual tour below gives just one example of one of the stunning yet affordable properties that Albuquerque's South Valley has to offer. This light, bright and airy home is gorgeous, and offers meticulously maintained barns, fencing and livestock facilities, all on over an acre and a half of irrigated pastures, less than 15 minutes from downtown.
