"It's not just what you see. It's how the place makes you feel." Nestled on a gated and completely fenced 5-acre property, this enchanting retreat blends Italian elegance, French charm, and Southwestern warmth into a one-of-a-kind sanctuary. The main home, 1830 sqft., showcases Saltillo tile flooring, whitewashed ceilings, and a stunning kitchen renovation. The two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with Talavera tile, a separate shower, and a soaking tub. An office/sunroom off the primary suite offers a peaceful space where the owner brings in her lemon tree so it can continue to grow citrus and is a perfect place to unwind with doors opening to the scenic views of the vibrant summer gardens. The main living area is an open-concept living room/dining room with a kiva fireplace and a wood-burning stove, with French doors opening to a sitting room leading to the guest bedroom. In 2017, a breakfast room, family room, and additional bedroom were thoughtfully added, enhancing the home's comfort and functionality. The attached soundproofed, 625 sqft. in-law/guest apartment boasts glass-front walls, Saltillo tile, a full kitchen, and bath, offering a serene retreat. The renovation of the in-law suite was built in 2020. For equestrian enthusiasts, the property includes a horse stable and a 90'x120' uncovered riding arena. This wonderful oasis offers passive solar design ensuring energy efficiency. There are hookups (power, water, septic) for an existing RV or future casita. Thoughtfully curated details and harmonious indoor-outdoor living spaces make this 2455 sqft. home a truly unique offering. Don't miss the chance to own a slice of paradise with undeniable European and Southwestern allure.
