Property Description
Once-in-a-generation opportunity to make The SunEarth II solar home your sanctuary, nestled high on the finest land in the Baca Grande, overlooking the great San Luis Valley & backing to S Crestone Creek - 150' away. <500' to USFS trails, lakes & 14ers above. Includes 1AC w/ option to purchase 1-acre parcels above & below (3AC tot). Designed by Paul Shippee, structural engineer & founder of Crestone Solar School, this home was meticulously crafted to highest efficiency standards. The home has active solar heat/hot water, is comfortable year round. Very little back-up heat is required. Paul received national recognition for solar designs/builds; via CSS, he sought to help others achieve similar results w/ their projects. Similar care & attention were paid to natural materials & aesthetics: deep rammed-earth walls, adobe floors & aspen posts on the main level; cathedral ceilings w/ vaulted vigas, straw bale insulation & natural plaster walls on the upper. The 2-lvl 2318sf home has open-concept 1BD/2BA w/ possibility of adding bedrooms. Enter via spacious mudroom/laundry w/ storage & south glazing - great for plants/starters. The bright kitchen features large central island, luxe soapstone counters, hammered copper sink & breakfast nook. Pass through the gorgeous portal into the large great room, your own observatory overlooking the SLV. Lots of south & west facing windows integrate w/ inviting natural floor/wall hues. French doors open onto small flagstone patio, perfect for summer sunsets. Big space for living, dining, entertaining, teaching, exercising - whatever the heart desires. The back door leads to an unfinished wood-fired sauna, covered storage, & of course, the creek. Understair storage & utility/storage room. Upstairs is the primary BD & full BA, a lrg space for sleeping, sitting/reading, meditating, w/ walk-in/bifold closets, & access to huge panoramic view deck. Fall asleep to sounds of the gurgling creek. Call now to tour this rare & special home!
