Overview

Description

Originally built in 1955, this southwestern style home has been completely redone. The new home was built around the original adobe. Wonderful touches such as Talavera tile, toilets, vanities, and sinks decorate this unique home. There is an adobe and brick kiva in the living room. The outside porch and patio are covered and fully fenced with metal and rock fencing. The appliances are Frigidaire Café, all interior doors are Knotty Alder, all electric and plumbing are brand new. Other touches include the new walls are 2' x 6'' and have R-19 insulation, the ceilings are R-58 and the roof consists of a TPO Roof System and Galvalume Corrugated Metal Panels on the porch roof, and the garage walls are insulated; it is pre-plumbed and wired for an Evaporative A/C. All roof drainage is plumbed to one drainage area (future water collection tank). This modern Southwestern-style home was designed to highlight the unique, abundant beauty of the region through natural, earthy materials and seamless indoor-outdoor living
