State of the art sustainable, holistic, passive solar design with natural, non-toxic building materials make this rare EcoNest home a must-see for people who appreciate a green living environment. The home was constructed using a sturdy Japanese timber frame, straw-reinforced clay walls, American Clay interiors and natural handcrafted finishes using locally sourced materials whenever possible. An efficient fireplace, and radiant floor heating, add to the passive solar design and Mitsubishi Mini Split heat pumps have also recently been added for cooling or heating. Shoji screen doors and skylights provide an abundance of natural light and add to the serenity and sense of comfort in this unique home. You will find excellent views to the surrounding mountain ranges including the Jemez, Sandias and Sangre de Cristo mountains. The home includes a long-lasting metal roof, generous roof overhangs to protect from the elements, numerous portals, exterior stone wainscoting, and in-ground cisterns for 6,000-gallon rainwater catchment and storage. This haven of quiet refuge can be the foundation for expressing your ecological values in a compatible living space.
