A rare architectural offering where design, craftsmanship, and setting converge to create an extraordinary retreat overlooking Black Mountain and the surrounding canyon. Thoughtfully positioned for privacy and connection to the landscape, this custom straw bale residence captures breathtaking views from its main living spaces, where the living and dining rooms unfold toward a wall of glass framing the hills beyond. Handcrafted details define the interiors, from mosaic artistry and sculpted plaster walls to custom cabinetry and exposed wood elements, all grounded by heated concrete floors and soaring metal-clad ceilings. The kitchen blends function and artistry with natural materials, bespoke storage, and a seamless connection to gathering spaces. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths include a distinctive primary suite with private outdoor access, while two secondary bedrooms feature lofted spaces that enhance both form and utility. A detached studio with loft offers a quiet, view-oriented workspace. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with layered patios, meandering paths, mature landscaping, and multiple vantage points to take in the sweeping canyon and valley views. A truly one-of-a-kind, eco-friendly property designed for both retreat and connection.
