FABULOUS HIGH DESERT HOME -BUT PROBABLY NOT FOR YOU*
If you see little value in a home that is situated in a secure, serene, neighborly, gated community in High Desert, giving you peace of mind while on your out-of-town adventures, then this home is probably not for you.Fabulous High Desert Home - But Probably Not for You
If breaking away from the same old traditional, run-of-the mill, kiva-and-viga house design is too far beyond your comfort zone, then this home is probably not for you. If you prefer crude, common, cluttered and complicated to elegant, distinctive, spartan and simple, then this home is probably not for you.If you cannot appreciate the benefits of ascending a flight of stairs to embrace spectacular mountain and city views, from the top-floor living room, dining room and kitchen, then this home is probably not for you.If accommodating out-of-town guests with their own separate-but-contiguous private sleeping quarters (i.e., a casita), including a ¾ bath, isn't on your radar, then this home is probably not for you.If you don't feel motivated by an onsite workout room or yoga studio or dance floor or hobby space, then this home is probably not for you.If grilling salmon steaks on the built-in BBQ on the shady-side deck, as you take in the full frontal of Sandia Peak, doesn't sound appealing, then this home is probably not for you.If counting shooting stars from an in-ground hot tub after a great afternoon of single-track mountain biking in the Sandia Peak foothills does not trip your trigger, then this home is probably not for you.If climbing under the sheets of the Master Suite bed after a late night soak in the outdoor, inground hot tub doesn't sound relaxing, then this home is probably not for you. If beholding blazing sunsets above the Mt. Taylor skyline, from your upstairs kitchen, living room or dining room, night after night, doesn't drop your jaw, then this home is probably not for you.If watching the full moon rise over Sandia Crest, while being serenaded by a coyote choir, doesn't give you goose bumps, then this home is probably not for you.If hiking the Pino Canyon Trail to the Sandia Peak ridge crest from the front door of your residence is something you'd never consider doing, then this home is probably not for you.If you prefer sitting in front of a flat screen TV, with the remote in your hand, to sitting with friends around an outdoor fire pit, with a local craft beer in your hand, then this house is probably not for you.If you determine that this home probably IS right for you, bear in mind that, as the original owner, it has been meticulously maintained, with a file cabinet of all maintenance and repair records; and is turnkey/move-in ready.
