This one-bedroom, one-bath hacienda-style home has an open floor plan, making it feel bigger than the square footage would imply. Sit by the wood-burning stove on a winter day, the snow-covered mountains surrounding you and you will feel as though you are in the Alps. Current owner has already invested nearly $200, 000 in improvements, inside and out, which now will benefit a future owner. A brand-new well has been drilled to feed a 2, 000-gallon cistern and a whole- house water filtration system is being installed. A brand-new 9, 000-watt generator powers the well and supplements a robust 16- panel solar array. A large propane tank powers the water heater and a wall heater in the house. On the inside, this lovely mountain home has been extensively renovated. The entire house has been freshly painted; the cabinets refinished; and new Southwestern-style sideboards added for extra storage and counter space.
The bathroom has been completely remodeled, with a custom shower featuring stone tiles, an authentic Southwestern-style vanity with a hammered copper sink and a unique mirror fashioned by a Turkish artisan. A brand-new, high-quality stackable washer and dryer set makes doing laundry a joy. A 30 x 40 ft. Quonset hut has been transformed into a sizeable greenhouse. This off-grid home allows you to fully embrace the self-sufficient, off-grid lifestyle, while affording the comforts and luxury of a modern home, complete with Southwestern touches and mountain views that will take your breath away.

And no matter where your adventures take you, your mountaintop retreat will be there when you return, offering peace, tranquility and beauty.
