Ridgecrest Homes - Nob Hill Homes

Located just east and south of the University of New Mexico campus and close to downtown, Albuquerque's Ridgecrest or Nob Hill area offer a unique living style and tight-knit community feel. Homes in Ridgecrest are older and well kept. Lush and mature landscaping and trees make this area a most sought-after neighborhood. Diversity seems to be the area's main focus.

With historic Route 66 running down the middle of this amazing community, social life can be relaxing and exciting from weekend to weekend. If you want to avoid big corporate American shops and restaurants, Ridgecrest is for you!

             Nob Hill Homes in Albuquerque

Nob Hill, located just east of the University of New Mexico, is an amazing place to live! The community within Nob Hill is very vibrant and full of life. The people within this community, whether it be students at UNM, young couples raising families or those you will live out the rest of there lives here, all have a tremendous pride of community. The homes were mainly built in the 40's, 50's and through the 60's during Route 66's hay day and the people have made sure they are well taken care of. Restaurants can be found for any taste. Whether you are in the mood for tasty breakfast pastries, wood oven pizza and a microbrew or fish-n-chips with two fingers of highland scotch, Nob Hill has got you covered!

The history of Nob Hill Albuquerque is one that you may find right of the movie "Cars". This historic area was visited by many traveling on Route 66 in the late 20's and 30's trying to get west during the great depression. But during the late 30's, people became to forego the vibrancy of Nob Hill to travel speeds of 60 - 70 miles per hour do to the opening of I-40. During that time, several businesses were forced to close shop and seek a living elsewhere in the city.

Throughout the years, with the combination of the University of New Mexico and the pride of the people of this area, Nob Hill real estate has become one of Albuquerque's must sought after areas. I ALWAYS enjoy showing Nob Hill homes for sale. They are unique and historical and a true pleasure to be a part of.
