Five miles from the Ojo Caliente Hot Springs, here is a comfortable, passive solar home on 20 acres with privacy and 360 degree views in all directions combining contemporary lines with traditional northern New Mexico building materials. The studio/home has 1,200 interior sf with two 300 sf porches featuring Adobe exterior walls, interior and exterior adobe plaster, woodstove, polished Flagstone counter-tops, recycled glass wall tile, polished tan concrete floors and 24 gauge metal roofing. Also incorporated into the design is a "Green Building" rainwater catchment system with three - 1200 gallon cisterns. This beautiful home is located on the high desert plateaus of northern New Mexico at a 6,700 ft. elevation. A traditional adobe construction and passive solar design keeps the house cool in summer and warm in the winter. The use of traditional mud plaster helps blend the building into the surrounding high desert landscape. The building has one large studio space with a full bathroom, closet and mechanical room. The property has reasonable protective covenants and a deeded easement access to the surrounding Carson National Forest for hiking, camping and horseback riding.
