This is a contemporary, energy efficient home in the foothills of the 9,000 foot high Organ Mountains above the lovely, vibrant city of Las Cruces, New Mexico. Home's elevation is 5,000 feet. 3100 square feet with a large 400 foot room that can easily be converted into a third bedroom or an office or separate casita. The house is built around an enclosed 30' by 40' courtyard which is set up for a hot tub, fish pond and a lush non-desert environment --- a refreshing and protected environment in the desert. The house has an open floor plan, lots of large, triple pane windows --- indoor/outdoor living at it's best. The walls and roof are made from SIPS (structural insulated panels) panels that are built offsite to be highly insulated ( R value is 150% higher than a stick build house) (see www.thermacore.com). It is zone heated and cooled with 5 mini split units spaced throughout the house so that you can heat or cool various rooms/areas as needed. The interior air is circulated though exposed ducting by a CERV smart ventilation system (go to www.buildequinox.com) that not only circulates the air inside the house but regulates air pollutants in the inside air and removes them as needed. At the same time it removes most of the hot or cold air (as needed) from the air it is exhausting and returns it to the interior in order to optimize efficiency. There are solar panels on the garage. Large 4 car garage. Michael Phelps Swim Spa located in it's own glassed in room which keeps it clean, free of dirt and pests, optimizes views from the spa and allows for comfortable year round swimming. Swim in 80 to 90 degree water indoors while it is snowing outdoors! The spa room is well ventilated with an automatic moisture sensing exhaust system and a large fan. The house has polished concrete floors, granite countertops and decorative granite slabs in showers and master bedroom. Two electric fireplaces. High ceilings in living room and TV room/den. Huge walk in closet in master bedroom. Cinderblock two horse barn with electricity and a large corral for horses to run in. Storage for hay. Tack room. 5 minute walk to open BLM desert riding. Desert landscaping around the house. Back patio with large enclosed BBQ structure. 360 degree incredible views of Organ mountains, the city of Las Cruces, the Mesilla Valley and the Dona Ana and Robledo mountains. 5 minute drive to hiking trails in the Dona Ana mountains. Sits on 10 acres which allows for complete privacy and unobstructed views. Lots of interesting wildlife. Must see to fully appreciate all that this beautiful home has to offer. I am happy to answer any questions. Wendy
