Description: This unique custom adobe home was nicknamed the 'Rainbow house' for all the rainbows that drape around it, a true art piece with natural light streaming into every room. The front of the home is rounded, in a New Mexico fashion. It is approximately 2600 sq. ft. with a two car garage adding another 478 sq. ft. of space. There are three bedrooms and a small office or nursery room off the master bedroom. There are 2 bathrooms. Vigas and skylights highlight the ceilings, with tile floors except in the kitchen, and split level going from the living room to the rest of the home. Archways into each room and small arched nichos speak to a softness of the home. Pella windows throughout capture the essence of the outdoors, bringing it indoors. Custom made cabinets, book shelves and a pantry enhance the feeling of 'one of a kind'. Two fireplaces, Kiva style, have areas for sitting (bancos) next to the fire adding to the curved design scheme as well. In the kitchen one wall is an original tile mural which is bright and welcoming. Radiant underfloor heating gives more even heat. Through out the home are thoughtful touches, such as the picture rails so pictures are hung without putting holes in the stucco. Feeling achy? Try the sauna in the master bathroom and then lay down under the skylight and watch the rainbows in the day and shooting stars by night! Outside the home there is a rustic ramada, glorious tree-shaded patio with flower gardens galore and a small recirculating garden pond. Follow the stairs up to the roof and there is a surprising sitting area with a 360 view of the Zuni Mountains and red striated cliffs of Timberlake Ranch. A very private yard totally enclosed with an adobe wall will provide the peace and quiet you have been looking for.
