Tucked away on five acres of tall ponderosa pines, this sustainable, eco-friendly property is a rare find in Flagstaff. Custom built by a local master strawbale home builder, the home has thick walls that are naturally insulated as well as Trombe walls. It stays temperate year-round with minimal heating and cooling needed. A state-of-the-art solar array powers the place with renewable electricity (and a negative monthly electric bill). Local and handcrafted touches abound, from sandstone counters quarried from Ash Fork to hand-plastered walls to locally sourced ponderosa pine siding and hardwood floors. Other recent upgrades include fresh paint, new carpet on the steps, modern lights and ceiling fans, and hardscaping from Flagstaff Native Plant & Seed.

The home gets great light throughout and has an open, airy flow yet plenty of separate spaces to live, work, and relax. Ample storage is also available: both upstairs in five roomy insulated attic spaces, and in the two sheds on the property, one smaller one and one large one from High Country Sheds that has windows and a storage loft and is roomy enough to use as a workshop. This part of Flagstaff is close to town yet surrounded by outdoor beauty. Picture Canyon and the Arizona Trail are just across the road, the extensive trail system of the Mount Elden foothills is two miles away, and the Grand Canyon is 75 miles away. This is a special, one-of-a-kind home that is built to last.
