This 3-bedroom contemporary pueblo-style home smartly sited on 3 acres, offers a compelling balance of style and function and has been designed to absorb breathtaking views of the Sandia and Ortiz Mountains and the hills of Cerrillos. A generously-sized portal is conducive to entertaining and lounging and clean, mannerly lines and quality accents are characteristic throughout this home. A high-ceilinged living room with diamond plaster walls, resounds with rectilinear architectural treatments including square cut beams, stacked corbels, and brick herringbone floors. The adjunct dining room is elegant with French doors, vigas and a continuation of brick flooring, all fashioned to create an intimate environment for suppers or brunches. An elongated kitchen floorplan with Shaker-style cabinetry and top-of-the line appliances ends in another informal eating area with windows framed to capture southwesterly views. One of the guest bedrooms, which currently functions as a media room, is handsome with warm painted walls and floor to ceiling built-in wood shelving. The second guest bedroom features a built-in banco and porcelain plank flooring. The privately situated master suite offers wood plank ceilings, private terrace and roomy walk-in closet and master bath. Stone window sills, travertine marble tiles, skylights, mature landscaping and an outdoor water feature are just a few of the other tasteful features that make this a stand-out residence and a host for graceful living.
