This off-grid straw bale home features a new kitchen with lots of counter space and storage, an updated bathroom, and extensive renovations throughout. Outdoor living spaces: screened-in porch, deck and pergola with mountain views, sunsets, and stars. Home also features a new powerful solar electrical system, a new well pump and controller, an updated rain catchment system (5300 gallons total water storage) and a household composting system. Memberships to the El Vadito water association and the La Canada high-speed internet association included. While the surrounding high desert is best suited for native plants, the sunroom, windows and pergola provide a truly amazing environment for growing food, herbs and flowers in containers. Two building sites on the property are ready for casita, greenhouse, teepee or Air BnB. Located 1.3 miles off of Hwy 14, the first 1/4 mile is rough. Driveway is steep. Four-wheel or all wheel drive recommended. Just south of Madrid, minutes from the Mine Shaft Tavern, The Hollar, Sugarman's Chocolate Shop, and all the lovely shops. 40 minutes to Santa Fe, 40 minutes to Albuquerque. This unique, move-in ready home won't last - schedule a showing before it's gone! More info at https://offgridhomenewmexico.com
