Snuggled against a backdrop of juniper, ponderosa and pinion pine this handsome custom-built southwestern style home is appealingly private. The surrounding 35.5 acre setting, home to the area's native wildlife, offers breathtaking mountain vistas, varied terrain and notable rock outcroppings. A picturesque drive "Judge Hopkins Way" leads from the maintained Dilley Ranch subdivision roadway to a gated courtyard entry where guests may announce their arrival via intercom. The southwest concept continues inside with the privacy of thick walls and impressive hallways leading to a generous master suite, a 2nd bed/bath, and a library/offiiice, easily converted to a 3rd bedroom/bath if needed. The centrally located greatrooom, country kitchen and dining area are perfect for entertaining family and friends. A back patio faces west for enjoyment of those sought after Sangre de Cristo sunsets. Originally designed with retirement in mind, the single level home features tiled flooring and countertops, efficient in-floor radiant heat, a low maintenance exterior, oversized 2 car garage and natural landscaping. We think you'll agree, this one's a "must see". We invite you to visit today.
