Custom homes with native landscaping can be found in the foothills of the Sandias. Tamara Shope
EAST
Foothills
Some of the city's premier homes are in the sagebrush-dotted foothills of the Sandias. This is a district of sweeping views of the city and custom homes where neighborhood covenants keep the landscape as close to native as possible. The area abuts the Cibola National Forest so it's not uncommon to see mule deer and jackrabbits darting in the pinon and cactus. There are plenty of trails for hiking, biking and even horseback riding. The area is bordered by San Antonio to the north, the Sandias to the east and Juan Tabo and Montgomery boulevards to the west.
The neighbors: Wealthy retirees, upper-middle class families, executives
