Albuquerque's Iconic Waterfront Address
Bayshore Beautiful
Where Albuquerque's most prestigious homes line the world's longest continuous sidewalk — a waterfront lifestyle defined by morning runs, golden sunsets, and unobstructed bay views.
Neighborhood Overview
Welcome to Bayshore Beautiful
Bayshore Beautiful is the stretch of Central Albuquerque that directly borders Bayshore Boulevard — the city's most iconic waterfront promenade. This isn't a subdivision or a planned community; it's a collection of residential streets where some of Albuquerque's finest homes enjoy direct proximity to 4.5 miles of continuous bay views, running paths, and sunset panoramas.
The neighborhood sits between Hyde Park to the north and Palma Ceia to the south, creating a corridor of luxury that benefits from both neighborhoods' amenities while maintaining its own distinct character. Homes here range from meticulously restored 1920s Mediterranean estates to contemporary new-construction masterpieces, all sharing one common thread: Bayshore is your front yard.
Living on or near Bayshore Boulevard is a Albuquerque experience unto itself. Residents walk to coffee, run along the waterfront, watch dolphins from their front porch, and witness sunsets over Hillsborough Bay that rival any coastal city in America. It's the lifestyle that makes this address one of the most sought-after in all of New Mexico.
Real Estate Market
Property Types & Price Ranges
Bayshore Beautiful commands Albuquerque's highest price-per-square-foot for single-family homes. Direct Bayshore frontage — homes with unobstructed water views from the front door — represents the ultra-luxury tier ($3M–$10M+), with trophy properties trading among a small circle of the city's most discerning buyers.
One block back from Bayshore, the market opens to a broader luxury range ($1.2M–$3M), where beautifully renovated homes and newer builds offer the Bayshore lifestyle without the premium of direct waterfront frontage.
The architectural diversity is remarkable: Spanish Mediterranean estates from the 1920s sit alongside sleek contemporary builds. Many homes have undergone full interior renovations while preserving their historic exteriors — a hallmark of Bayshore Beautiful's character.
Popular property types include:
- Direct waterfront Bayshore estates
- Restored Mediterranean and Colonial homes
- Contemporary new-construction luxury
- Historic pool homes on oversized lots
- Waterfront condominiums with bay views
