Property Description

A distinctive retreat with an easygoing spirit where Santa Fe serenity meets Topanga Canyon vibes in this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home on nearly 7.5 acres. The passive solar design features large windows that bring natural light inside and create a sense of flow between the interiors and surrounding landscape. A wood-burning stove provides warmth and ambiance in the cooler months and adds symmetry to the spiral staircase leading up to the 400 sf loft, offering a bird’s-eye view for work or play. The kitchen includes a newer refrigerator, plenty of storage, including the adjacent laundry / utility room and a window over the sink. An intimate primary suite offers a kiva fireplace, soaking tub and access to the exterior, while two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom. A walled yard with the sound of flowing water from the koi pond and a deck extending the length of the home enhance the enjoyment of this bucolic setting which backs to an arroyo for wildlife sightings and exploration. A 2-car garage with a stand-up loft adds storage and expansion possibilities. A private well and solar hot water system for the radiant in-floor heating add to the efficiency and low utility costs. Several dining options are nearby, including Café Fina, Fable and Chai Yo, as well as shopping and services in Eldorado.
