Welcome to this custom built adorable adobe home nestled on five acres in El Ranchos Florida! A beautiful passive solar home located close to town with amazing La Plata Mountain Views.

As you step through the front door you are welcomed by a light-and-bright space designed to bring the outside in. There is a beautiful sitting area with a wood burning stove and a wall of south facing windows that provides daily opportunities to view the local wildlife in their natural habitat.

The combination of the ten inch adobe bricks, wall of south facing windows and the original red brick flooring create an amazing passive solar system while maintaining a moderate inside temperature. Complementing the main floor is a guest bedroom, office/den that could be converted into an atrium and a 1.75 guest bath. The alder finished staircase will lead you to the second level where you will find an additional guest bedroom, master bedroom and master bath. From the large master bedroom and walkout deck you will enjoy the stunning La Plata Mountain views and the true beauty of living in Colorado.
