Description

If you yearn for privacy surrounded by natural beauty, this is the place you have been searching for. This home, known as "Casa Alegre," the Happy House, and the nearby guest house offer quality custom construction with expansive views from every room including the guest house deck, the entrance portal (porch) of the main house as well as the two large picture windows in the great room of the main house. The traditional Pueblo Revival Style of this home, features bancos that beckon you to sit and appreciate the enchanting everchanging views to be experienced and appreciated at any moment in the day throughout the year. Look beyond the open meadow to the timeless, dramatic Mesa, with its varied hues of strata that provide clues to the geologic history of this land. This home is located in an area that is rich in history and the remnants of past cultures tell a story of the ancestral inhabitants of the land. The landscape beyond the open space of the meadow is an incredible example of high desert Juniper, Pinon and Ponderosa forest mix - all occupying the same ecosystem harmoniously. The wildlife that is drawn to this area by the two small streams located on the property dwell on this land and the surrounding forest, are a marvel to watch from the safety of this home. It is like watching a Jacques Cousteau land video, if it ever existed, in real time. The home has many very special features among them the beautiful burnished vigas and the saltillo tile flooring accenting the adobe-like, interior walls. Examine each the element whether it be the cabinets, doors, or walls, for it is a work of art, a reflection and an homage of a deep love and appreciation for the land and skies. The guest house is fully equipped with a small kitchen and a full bath/shower combination. Further away from the main home, there are two small outbuildings one of which has occasionally been utilized as extra guest house with a rustic outhouse nearby. With the abundance of New Mexico sunshine, solar panels generate electricity storing it in batteries, should there be a power outage on the distribution line. The panels have been paid in full. There are so many things to discover and learn from this land and the public lands that surround the area. So much has been learned, yet there is so much more to discover. Please watch the 3d VIDEO, The SHOWCASE VIDEO, and the extra photos provided by the seller.
