Description

This 3,600 sq ft 4 bedroom 3 bath home plus an 1,800 sq ft bunkhouse sits on 40 country acres near Capitan NM. The home is set on a gently-sloping west-facing ridge and has good views of pyramid-shaped Nogal Peak in the White Mountain Wilderness. Interior and exterior walls are simulated adobe Slump block construction, offering all the character and charm of adobe without adobe's need for continuous maintenance. The home is encircled by a rock fence with metal gate. The home's living areas are set around a skylighted atrium with a flagstone floor. The living room has a fireplace with insert, and expands into a spacious family room or den with bar. The master suite is set on the north end of the home, separate from the other three bedrooms on the south end. The kitchen has just been completely remodeled with all-new cherry cabinets and peninsula enhanced with roll-out storage and lazy Susan. Granite countertops provide lots of work surface for gourmet cooks! There's an 11'X 13' walk-in kitchen pantry too. Just outside the kitchen door, there's a large covered patio that's a great place for outdoor entertaining. In addition to the main home, there's an 1,800 sq ft bunkhouse that's set up as a self-contained two bedroom two bath home, with a large shop on one end. The bunkhouse is well-separated from the main home, maintaining privacy for both. The property has a pasture of approximately 20 acres that would be perfect for horses. Water is piped to two faucets next to the pasture. The property is at the end of a private road. Great Buy!
