This lovely 3BR/3BA home is located in a quiet co-housing community within walking distance of the Solana Center. It is 2500 square feet on two stories (ground floor and finished basement), has two fireplaces, plentiful natural light and hardwood floors on the upper level. It is primarily finished with adobe and stucco inside and stucco interior has recently been painted. The ground floor consists of the kitchen, living room, an alcove off the living room, a master bedroom with an adjacent room (with Tonal exercise equipment) and en suite bathroom, as well as a second bedroom and a bathroom. The finished basement contains the third bedroom, along with an office or library space, and a generous, well-lit main room lined with storage on both sides. You will also find the HE washer and dryer down here. The kitchen has a newer Samsung induction range with built in air fryer, a new Bosch dishwasher, and a pantry. Utilities are included, as is high speed internet. The house is part of a beautiful property with many fruit trees (apples, apricots, cherries), beautiful flowers, a community plaza (placita) and roofed area with a fountain, and more. Community opportunities include working in the shared garden, or joining the independent goat and chicken co-ops that use the barn. There should be new baby goats in the spring. Birds love the place most years we have a hawk family nesting in one of our big trees, and you can deduct up to $50 from your rent each month, with receipts, if you choose to feed the birds. It's a very rural feeling that's hard to find in the city! The community members have monthly potluck brunches and other gatherings, share resources as desired, and generally have a desire to live lightly on the earth. You're definitely encouraged to participate in the community and to (gently) enjoy the property. There's minimal chemical input on the land, and no toxic chemicals can be used in this rental. There are community compost bins that you're encouraged to use, and you can also feed the goats when you have fruits or non-cruciferous vegetables they'll like. This property is located along the Santa Fe River trail just two miles from the Santa Fe Plaza, and an easy commute for those working in Los Alamos. Credit check is required and could cost the applicant approx $40. Owner pays for utilities and high speed internet. Renters can deduct up to $50 from the rent each month, with receipts, if they choose to feed the birds.
