HIGH-DESERT HOME

This home in the Tierra de la Vida neighborhood displays a dedication to detail and craftmanship. Design details include hand-troweled Diamond finish plaster in the common areas and master suite, and exquisite hand-carved beams. The home blends contemporary and traditional elements in its circular skylights and other features. There are gracious touches throughout, from the built-in shelving and bookcases to the dual walk-in master closets. In the owner’s suite, residents can luxuriate in the oversize sit-in steam room/ shower with an eight-point temperature-controlled shower system.

The design features an open floor plan with separation between the owner’s suite and guest bedrooms. The gourmet chef’s kitchen with island includes an eating area, butler’s pantry, and wine storage pantry. Indoor and outdoor entertaining areas make this a great home for families and those who like to entertain. The three-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is situated on 2 acres and offers stunning Jemez and Sangre de Cristo Mountains views.
