Our home is decorated with new and antique furnishings, Southwestern and Native American art, antique Japanese and African furnishings with antique Navajo rugs throughout. The main floor is finished with the traditional silky hand-troweled, diamond plaster walls, 10 skylights and wide-plank, hand-scraped antique floors. The exteriors of the main house and casita were completely re~stuccoed in 2015. The entire property has been exceptionally well maintained and is dramatically landscaped with aspen, blue spruce, pine, honey locust and apple trees.
