About This Property

Welcome to the "Zen Garden House", a showcase in sleek Japanese aesthetic, by contemporary New York architect David Jay Weiner. Concrete, steel and glass are folded together in perfect harmony, to mimic the delicate folds in classic Japanese Origami, culminating in a work of art that showcases the spectacular beauty of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Situated on 20 contiguous acres, with an additional 10 across the street to protect privacy and view. Entering the house through the west into the Great Room, you are greeted with floor to ceiling windows, dominating the east and south faces of the home.

The white and steel clad kitchen has ample cabinet space for most home chefs, and the huge island is the ideal counter for playing host, along with the flexible space in the Great Room. Designed to allow natural cooling with constant airflow, large stucco and metal awnings protect the windows from direct weather and cover the 315 sq ft deck. In-floor radiant heat through polished concrete floors and high R-value insulation maintains the warm interior winter temperature, while a fireplace provides additional cozy warmth. To the north of the house, the namesake of the house provides tranquility and a private view of nature in the glass and concrete enclosed Zen garden.

Inside, the floor has been inlaid with Japanese Tatami mats, perfect for yoga, sitting, and even sleeping. A full bath adjacent includes beautiful custom teal tiles and handy wall insets, as well as a deep closet for storage. On the south side of the home, the primary bedroom opens up with dramatic views of the mountains and sand dunes, as both of the entire walls on the corner are fully comprised of windows. The primary bathroom features stunning custom tile work and a luxurious soaking tub with an exterior viewing window, and a large walk in closet rounds out the primary suite. Form and function blend in this must see home, visible in the virtual tour.
