Charming southwest strawbale home with twenty-inch thick walls. Surrounded by artistic strawbale fence and sited on 10 acres of lush natural desert in a beautiful valley. Totally self-sufficient, this home is not served by public utilities but has its own solar power and water tanks. Yet, it has high speed internet and TV via satellite up and down link. A nearby cell tower provides excellent signal. Full bath. Home has septic tank and the grey water can be used for irrigation. Sited on a fully fenced parcel, this type of home requires no cooling. All the necessary heat is provided by a wood stove. To the west is Baboquivari (a mountain sacred to local Indians) and Kitt Peak observatory. All the more reason to enjoy the stunning southwest sunsets. The kitchen is equipped with a propane stove supplied from a tank unobtrusively placed behind its own wall. The refrigerator is highly efficient, using little power. The bed rooms are fitted with ceiling fans. All rooms have high ceilings and the floors are polished concrete. The solar power array tracks the sun across the sky and stores energy in a battery bank which is then inverted to AC for use. Covered patios wrap around the entire home. The strawbale fence encloses the yard all around as well. The entire ten acres is fenced. Lush desert vegetation including mesquite groves. The parcel is located in a valley surrounded by moutains, allowing panaramic views.
