Sweet light and bright home welcomes you in! Step into the landscaped, drip-irrigated, and walled courtyard framed by lovely walls and separate studio before entering the main house. Front yard includes a small seating area with four younger aspen trees, which is shaded from wind and sun by the studio wall in the afternoon. The lush 20-year-old shade tree protects the front yard and parts of the house from the afternoon sun in the summer. Bedrooms in main house are separated with master on one side of the living room and 2 ancillary bedrooms / 2nd full bath on opposite side. Fireplace in living room is a focal point and is not only wood-burning but has a gas starter as well. Separate studio was built in 2008 and, as an added plus, windows in the main house were replaced at the same time. Light-filled studio has poured colored concrete floors, high ceilings and skylights. Flagstone-covered area shaded by portal in back creates opportunity for indoor/outdoor living. The fenced- in portion of the back yard provides great views of the Jemez Mountains has a separate fenced area dogs. There is elastomeric stucco on both home and studio, roofing upgrade has been recently performed, and south-facing windows create warmth and keep heating bills low.
