This magnificent estate property demonstrates the great deal of thought and attention to detail that was given at each opportunity during its design and construction. Nestled among some of the most beautiful rock formations and ancient trees imaginable, this 3800 sq ft.home oversees the ranch's verd...ant valleys. It and the charming detached guest quarters have been constructed for the utmost in visual appeal and energy efficiency. R42 insulation factor was achieved with Rasta block and concrete throughout all exterior walls.

In addition to this advanced wall design, the concrete slab construction further creates a bedrock feel when one enters the home. The primary residence is three beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms.

Each room beholds a breath-taking view of the green valley or the incredible rock formations The amazing great room presents a high efficiency Rumford fireplace which is uniquely accented with an ornate Rod Pickett Metal crafter screen. To top it off, the mantel was a hand-peeled cedar log found on the ranch that has been sanded to perfection. The kitchen is a chef's dream with an AGA stove imported from England as the focal point of this ranch-style room. These stoves are efficient due to their cast iron design that stores heat and cooks more evenly. Open shelves throughout the kitchen allow access to your cookware effortlessly. Just off the kitchen is a preparing station that also serves as a pantry.
