This is a fantastic opportunity to own one of the area's most beautiful true adobe homes. Set along the white cliffs past Turtle Lake, this setting is unlike any other. The home sits on 10+ acres and backs to San Juan National Forest land. This gorgeous home has everything a buyer could want in a property! The seller paid close attention to every detail when building and has maximized the amount of natural light and year round sun in each area of the house. The large windows not only add light, but allow for a wonderful view of this gorgeous property and surrounding vistas. The main level of the home has an open floor plan with a large living room, dining area and open kitchen. The tile floors and plaster walls add to the charm of this unique home. The built-in eating nook has a spectacular walnut table to match the bar in the kitchen. There are plenty of cabinets and a nice-sized pantry for maximum storage. Off the kitchen is a studio space that could be converted to a formal dining room, office or left as a studio. The 12' ceilings, wood stove and in-floor heat create a warm and inviting space that you will never want to leave! There is also a bedroom and full bath on this level, perfect for a guest room or an office. The stairs to the upper level have incredible detail in the plaster and each step has an ornate piece of history implanted in the wall. Upstairs you will find a sunny reading nook with a large bench, perfect for enjoying a book or cup of coffee while taking in the views across the valley. Down the hall is another bedroom, large bath with separate tub and shower, and the master bedroom with walk-in closet and a private deck. The laundry room is conveniently located on this level as well. The exterior of this home has been beautifully landscaped. The backyard has been terraced and is framed by the white cliffs of the valley. There is a small gazebo area just off the front yard for entertaining or enjoying quiet summer evenings. The two-car garage has a separate storage or shop section and a side area which is covered and enclosed for storing all of your toys and gear. This gorgeous home has much to offer a new buyer, is energy efficient and very low maintenance. The home has been pre-inspected and is ready to go!
