This is an amazing homestead with two dwellings & endless opportunities for sustainable living. The property is ideal as a high-producing domestic agricultural operation with its extensive gardens, greenhouses, coops, & storage. Emphasizing quality & sustainability, the entire property is designed for self-sufficiency & eco-friendly living. Just minutes from downtown Alamosa, this completely off-grid sanctuary offers convenience, peace & privacy. The property is served by a domestic-use well & septic system & is supported by four separate solar systems. The main residence is a 665-square-foot, energy-efficient adobe home, thoughtfully designed & built by the original owner for his small family. Its south-facing orientation & superior insulation keep it comfortable throughout much of the winter, with a propane heater with thermostat providing a lender-friendly heat source. The kitchen includes a high-efficiency, super-insulated Sunfrost refrigerator. The adorable chalet-style tiny house is a cozy cabin with small kitchen & shower/bath with composting toilet, stained concrete floors & beetle kill blue stain pine tongue & groove walls & ceiling. Upstairs is a large sleeping loft with light & views in two directions. This cabin presents an excellent opportunity to host visitors exploring the nearby Great Sand Dunes National Park. The garage is three compartment, with a 1-car stall with door, a 1-car carport, & lockable storage. For the aspiring farmer, an extensive outdoor garden area is fenced against rabbits or other burrowing animals, & larger livestock. There is a chicken house, a pen & shelter that was previously used for turkeys, a root cellar, a strawbale greenhouse, a hoop house, & a large metal building that was previously a hydroponic greenhouse. This is truly an extraordinary property & an amazing opportunity for someone looking to sustainably homestead.
