Placitas NM is a wonderful, friendly village of approximately perhaps 500 homes, located 10 miles north of Albuquerque, and when I first settled in this area, there were few services. We had one restaurant, one grocery store, no coffee shops, one local bank, and no drugstore. But in the last nine years Placitas NM has added Banks, Grocery Stores and Restaurants, a Starbucks, and drugstore, and the surrounding area has expanded the services available to the local residents.
There are various types of homes available in Placitas, from the new one story custom houses with tile floors, granite counter tops, wood ceiling, vigas, and tons of outdoor living space.
To two story homes that are partial ADOBE with grassy courtyards. Adobe construction is unique today, but was a standard long ago when dirt, water, and straw where the building blocks of construction. Adobe walls are at least 14 inches thick, and are a great means of absorbing and holding the solar gain, which the walls will release in the cool of the evenings.
If you would like to discuss the Placitas NM Banks, Grocery Stores, and Restaurants, and the other services available to Placitas residents, please give me a call at 505-350-0911 or check my website. Carol Skees
