This gorgeous Model is Joe Boyden's Parade of Homes Fall 2015 Award Winner! Sumptuous 3408sf, with luxurious finishes and amenities, on a rare Bosque-adjacent lot with AMAZING unobstructed views of the Bosque and Sandia Mountains. Joe's custom plan takes full advantage of the Views, and truly incorporates the beauty of the Bosque into the overall design of the home. All 3 strategically separated, large Master Bedrooms feature en-suite Baths; and the flexible 4th BR/Study/Library is adjacent to the grand Foyer. Easy entertaining and casual family living flow naturally from the elegant open Greatroom to the Kitchen and Dining, and beyond through Pella french doors to the large Covered Patio with travertine floor and an outdoor gas-log fireplace. As you enter the Greatroom, your eyes will be drawn first to the fabulous views, then to the corner gas-log fireplace with stacked stone and Variance-plaster detail, which draws the eye up to an amazing herringboned rough-cut cedar ceiling, with full hand-planed Vigas running the length of the raised ceiling. As your attention circles the room, notice the wood beam at the Kitchen separation, and the Variance-plastered, barrel-ceilinged hallway off to the right, banked by a lighted Nicho. The Kitchen is truly a cook's dream, with gorgeous granite counters which are designed to create interaction between the Kitchen, Greatroom, and Dining Room; thoughtfully planned workspaces and lighting; and beautiful alder cabinets -- with pull-outs and soft-close drawers. Stainless steel KitchenAid Architect Series convection/steam-assist oven, convection/microwave, and gas cooktop, dishwasher, and spacious french-door refrigerator will keep your kitchen running efficiently. Beauty and function combine again in the easy-care rough-edged Travertine tile flooring -- installed everywhere except for the carpeted Bedrooms. Also notice the Variance Plaster accent walls, as well as each of the hand-finished and Danish-oil rubbed alder doors throughout the interior of the house (Joe says you need to FEEL the difference of the finish on these doors!). The Owner's Suite accessed by a short barrel-ceilinged hallway with graceful groin-joint intersection, custom wall sconce lighting plus solartube for daytime natural light, another art Nicho, and stacked stone detail. Walk out the Pella sliding door of this Suite to its own private covered Patio overlooking the peaceful Bosque views. Back inside, you'll love the corner gas-log fireplace, and the sumptuous Bath with two giant walk-in closets, split vanities with granite counters and vessel sinks, a freestanding oval soaking tub, separate water closet, and gorgeously-tiled walk-in shower with solartube and rainshower. The second Master Suite has its own corner gas-log fireplace, picture window with views of the Bosque and Sandias, Pella atrium door to the oversized Covered Patio, and a gracious Bath with walk-in/roll-in shower, granite-topped vanity, linen closet and spacious walk-in closet. The third Bedroom with generous space and another sizeable walk-in closet also features an en-suite Bathroom, with a gorgeous rounded rough-cut granite-topped vanity, Southwest-style curved walk-in shower, and linen closet. Laundry is a never-ending endeavor, but made much easier in this home's oversized Utility Room, with tile counters, plentiful alder cabinets, and utility sink. The finished, oversized 3-Car Garage has 2 open storage areas, and a separate Mechanical Room, which houses the tankless water heater and high-efficiency forced-air natural gas heater. Right away you'll notice all of the thought and craftsmanship poured into the creation of this amazing home. What you can't see behind the scenes are all of the Green construction products and systems that make this a BuildGreen New Mexico GOLD Level home.
