Home Features

The custom designed Santa Fe Style home was crafted and built for this exact property location, with the intention of balancing the hundreds of ft of river frontage, ponds, manicured pastures, and the gorgeous stand of cotton woods. With its spacious and tastefully designed open floor plan, this magnificent residence includes a polished and well-crafted office which has inside and outside. The large island gourmet kitchen, containing a massive walk-in pantry, definitely compliments the large great room with its welcoming fireplace. It’s almost as if the home has three master bedrooms due to the way each one a has its own wing designed for privacy. Two huge walk-in closets compliment the master suite. A huge 3.5 bay garage attached by a breezeway could house even the largest 3500 long-bed dually! And without a doubt, one of the homes most impressive features is the incredible front and rear veranda’s, which include an outdoor kitchen to entertain while enjoying the southwest’s phenomenal climate with family and friends.

Lot Features

An early visit to your riverside blind will net a limit of Canadian Honkers and mallards. Picnic area, fire-pit and horseshoes will fill your afternoons along the riverside.
