Ideally sited on a quiet, 1-acre corner lot set atop Placitas’ High Mesa area, this home takes advantage of magnificent views in all directions, including the Sandia Mountains and El Cabazon. It is only a short walk away from vast and beautiful BLM land, home to wild mustangs descended from the Conquistadors, hence the street name Caballo Sendero, or horse path. This is a wonderfully exciting area for wildlife viewing, star gazing, and weather watching!
This 2357 square-foot pueblo-style home features an open floor plan with 3 bedrooms (each with a walk in closet), a master bath, a Jack-n-Jill bath, and guest powder room. Amenities one would expect to find in much higher priced homes include: custom knotty alder cabinetry in kitchen, baths and laundry; granite countertops; custom kiva fireplace with gas log insert; tongue and groove ceiling in living room and portals; oversized master bath with jetted Jacuzzi tub and walk-in snail shower; custom solid wood doors with oil rubbed bronze hardware; glass block accents; extra built-in storage space throughout; and oversized, fully finished and insulated two-car garage with 8 foot-high door and epoxy floor coating. Also, plumbed for water softener, wired for surround sound, and wired for CAT-5 computer network.
Energy efficient and build green features include: insulated foundation, low-E coating on windows, refrigerated air conditioning, hydronic radiant heating in the floor, forced air heat (two heating systems), awnings over south and west windows to reduce summer solar gain, wet cellulose blown-in exterior wall insulation (R-23), fiberglass ceiling insulation (R-38), insulated garage door, hot water re-circulating system throughout, American Clay plastered kiva-style gas fireplace with sealed glass front to retain heat energy, energy star appliances, and xeriscaped front courtyard with low water use drip system.
