This Santa Fe style home sits on 40 acres of pristine high desert land. It borders National Forest with views of Mount Bachelor and the Three Sisters. Wildlife is abundant, and the property has old-growth juniper and ponderosa pines. Straw-bale construction offers amazing insulation properties year-round, easily warmed in winter with a masonry heater and radiant heated floors, and equally easy to keep cool in summer. Other features include: Saltillo tiles in living room; hardwood bookshelves in the study; south-facing windows for solar gain in the winter and light in the summer; light-filled staircase; two garages; greenhouse and more. The large solar array and batteries easily run 2 heat pumps in summer, if needed. Secluded and quiet, yet just 15 minutes from downtown Bend, this home offers a safe refuge from the uncertainties of today's world in a beautiful and natural setting.
