This custom Lee Mitchell built home has been transformed into an off-grid, self-sustainable, retreat property.
It features a stunning meditation studio, 20,000 sqft organic food & herbal medicine garden, & uniquely
well-built home with passive solar design, amazing views of the mountains, & Trex rooftop deck. Electricity
runs 100% through a new, state-of-the-art, 5kWh solar system with 22.2kWh of Lithium Ion battery storage
& 8kW Inverter/Charger. The great room features a beautiful 14ft slatted cedar ceiling with large windows
showcasing the incredible mountain views, & has a high efficiency wood stove. The open kitchen is a cook’s
delight, with all new stainless-steel appliances. A separate energy room houses the solar system, new
washer+dryer, radiant in-floor heating system, and tankless water heater. The large master bedroom suite
includes a walk-in closet, custom tile throughout the master bathroom & an oversized soaking tub. Two
additional bedrooms with tons of natural light and large closets add versatility. The house opens to a beautiful
patio with gazebo to relax in the extensively landscaped, organic food, flower, and herbal medicine garden,
which runs on a fully automated drip irrigation system with timers. Hundreds of hummingbirds & songbirds
visit daily. A new custom-built chicken coop can house up to 22 chickens & could easily be converted for
other uses. The octagonal mediation studio is truly a special space, positioned according to the 4-directions, and is fully insulated, with heating & electricity. This space includes an adjacent, newly built insulated structure
that could be a bathroom or storage room. The property is ideally located in the Baca Grande on quiet Hilltop
Way in Chalet 1 & sits between Yeshe Rangsal Stupa land on the north & beautiful Willow Creek Greenbelt
on the south, for miles of walking & seclusion in all directions. There are also 4 hot springs & the Great
Sand Dunes National Park all within 45 minutes.
