**POSSIBLE ASSUMABLE VA LOAN for Qaulifying Buyers at 2.25%!** This exquisite custom-built home, with over $50k in improvements meticulously added to the property, is only 15 minutes from Santa Fe AND offers almost 6 acres of ample space for the addition of a casita or stables and corrals. The acreage is mostly flat with canyon and mountain vistas . One can ride or hike directly from the property into the  gorgeous open area to the south for a quick jaunt or a full day of exploration.  The territorial-style house was built in 2002 by the master builder, artist, and first owner using his artistic skills and intuition to complement the landscape, the culture and the architecture of New Mexico.This beautiful home includes 10’ high ceilings throughout, Saltillo tile floors in all bedrooms, bathrooms and living room, cherry wood flooring in the kitchen and breakfast area, and a concrete floor in the studio.  There is no carpeting anywhere in the house.  The roof is a standing-seam metal roof, and the exterior is composed of synthetic stucco.  The property is served by a reliable and productive well that will ensure ample water for the house and any livestock you might have. There are two sets of linked rain barrels on the northeast and southwest corners of the house to support water conservation and irrigation for gardening.The floor plan is open and unique with a spacious master bedroom and ensuite bathroom, comfortable guest room, expansive living room/dining room, and large kitchen/breakfast area. Also, there is a large space that has been used as an art studio due to the wonderful light that comes in from the expansive windows facing the southwest side of the house, concrete floor, and wall-sized cabinet to hold all art supplies.  With its own exterior entrance, this app. 375 sf space has also been used as an office, guest apartment, workout space and garden room.  It is adjacent to the heated garage that can be accessed from the studio. The kitchen is the center hub of the home, with ample cabinetry and drawers for storage, and a built in bar with a solid wood block top overlooking  a 6’ unique butcher block counter.  Other countertops are slate, and a full-size pantry adds to the exceptional storage space.  The stamped metal ceiling provides the final touch to this unique and perfect kitchen. Current owners purchased the home in 2017 and added flagstone courtyards in both the front and rear of the house.  The rear courtyard area is surrounded by a 3’ stucco wall with built in lighting, and includes a lighted, covered barbecue area.  A gate leads out to the expanse of the acreage surrounding the home where wildlife abounds. Superior insulation in the house includes energy efficient double-glass pane windows and doors, and film has been applied to all glass providing a constant 10º-15º difference from outside summer heat and winter cold.  The house is heated with baseboard heaters throughout (including the garage), as well as a pellet stove in the living room and wood-burning stove in the kitchen. An oversized, heated, single-car garage with garage door opener provides space to bring in the car as well as two additional refrigerators and a chest freezer.  Sturdy steel shelving is attached to one wall where tools, etc. can be stored.  There is a pull-down ladder in the garage allowing access to the expansive attic.  Additionally, an enclosed and covered carport is attached to the west side of the garage that is convenient for car storage in the hot summer or snowy winter.  A 10’x25’ metal workshop built on a slab foundation provides tool storage and space for projects. It is well-placed away from the house, but close enough to access in inclement weather. This wonderful home can be enjoyed as a horse property, artistic retreat, family home, or all of the above..   You must allow yourself a visit to this peaceful and inspiring place that could be exactly what you need.
