    About this Property

    This property has views galore! The 3,000+- sf owner-built home is set in over 80 acres of pinon-juniper dotted land, close to a ridge of Morrison Formation sandstone. From the ridge (a great place for your morning coffee or happy hour), you can see the Jemez, Sandia, Ortiz, & Sangre de Cristo mountains. Trails from the house lead to the sellers' special vistas. The house is off the grid & was built in three phases: first, frame & stucco; second straw bale; & third rastra block. Energy comes from about 20% wind/80% solar (owned); heat is propane & wood stoves & 2 fireplaces. There is a water catchment system; gray water is piped from sinks & tub to land. Internet is high speed radio signal. The 3 bedrooms & 1 bath (composting toilet) provide ample room, & the house is graced by unusual doors, bottle windows, bright tile work, & whimsical artistic touches. You really need to see this property. You won't want to leave.
