Located in the gated premier community of Las Campanas, 6 Rising Moon is a substantial adobe home offering 3 bedroom suites, 4 bathrooms, and approximately 1.86 acres of land. Set on a rise with unobstructed views to the east, the home takes in sweeping vistas of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains--framed dramatically through the living room's large windows and enjoyed from the deep portal and landscaped lawn of native grasses just beyond. Built in the classic Pueblo style, the home features thick adobe walls, hand-troweled plaster, vigas, flagstone floors, and Mexican-style tile in the bathrooms. The layout is both functional and generous: a large primary suite is set apart on one end of the house, with two guest suites on the other. In the center is a spacious living and dining room with high ceilings and eastern light, and an adjacent kitchen that opens to a breakfast nook and sitting area. There are no interior steps across the 4,553 square foot home, which also has a two-car garage with a large storage room. In-floor radiant heat and minisplits provide comfortable climate control in all seasons. This is the first time the home has been offered for sale by its original owner--a property of lasting quality, thoughtfully sited and full of character, ready for its next chapter
In the tree-studded rolling hills northwest of town are Las Campanas and a host of other developments and neighborhoods of larger, private lots and newer homes, most with city services and utilities. The land here sits between the city and the arroyos that carry rainwater to the Rio Grande, just a few miles west, creating a landscape almost like ocean waves rolling into shore.
