Velarde, NM
Modern Affordable Home with High-End Southwest Flair
Nestled on 5.4 acres of sprawling New Mexican hills, this home’s unique dimensional layout and architecture flows naturally with the landscape. A captivating entryway and wrap-around pergola give an organic look and provide a traditional feel for this spacious custom home showcasing 3,098-square-feet of craftsmanship and sleek modern design. Custom built by Clay Custom Homes with three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, it has everything a growing family could want and need. It features a covered porch, flex room space, attached two-car garage, and an open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen. Broad windows in every room allow for abundant natural lighting. Ample storage and closet space are integrated into every room; the classic double French doors in the kitchen lead to the most notable storage space in the house -the prodigious pantry. The detailed tile work and stunning Valle Nevado granite countertops accentuate the custom cabinetry throughout the entire home. Dark-grey tile flooring in the large communal living spaces amplifies the overall spacious feel of the home. The passive solar lighting, high ceilings, satin-nickel finishes, and bronze lighting fixtures tie the spaces together to create a natural flow from one room to the next.
The flat roof has a positive pitch to ensure good drainage; the 2-inch rigid foam exterior and remarkable insulation and batts complement the house’s superior green high-efficiency package. This elegant, high-end home was custom built to be cost-effective and economical.
