About This Home
Welcome to this beautifully cared-for Cypress-built home, thoughtfully designed for comfort, efficiency, and peaceful living. With an open floor plan and split-bedroom layout, it flows beautifully while giving everyone space to unwind and recharge. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features vaulted ceilings in the living room and kitchen, filling the space with natural light. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat—large enough for a home office—and offers a jetted soaking tub, walk-in tiled shower, and generous walk-in closet. Built with sustainability in mind, this home is green certified, featuring solar panels that power the in-floor radiant heat, energy-efficient windows, and enhanced insulation—all designed to reduce your footprint while keeping your home comfortable year-round. The kitchen is warm and welcoming, with under-cabinet lighting and beautifully crafted knotty red alder cabinets that add richness and character. The home also includes natural gas central heat and AC, plus zero-entry access and wider doorways for added ease and accessibility. Outside, enjoy the xeriscaped yard with sprinklers, maintenance-free stucco and stone exterior, and a spacious 3-car garage. The covered back patio is perfect for relaxing while taking in peek-a-boo San Juan Mountain views, Horsefly views, and the peaceful open field beyond. Deer often wander through, making it a quiet delight for wildlife lovers—and it’s truly a birdwatcher’s paradise. A graceful Chinese rain chain adds a soothing touch to rainy days, turning water into a soft, flowing feature. Just minutes from town, yet offering a gentle country feel, this home brings together the best of nature, comfort, and convenience. Lovingly maintained and full of thoughtful details, this is a place to slow down, breathe deep, and feel at home.
