19A Deans Court

Enjoying sweeping views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains from its location in the desirable southside community of Rancho Viejo, this handsome four-bedroom and studio/office, two bath home is filled with light and fine finishes. Nearly every window enjoys a picturesque vista, and earthy terra-cotta tile and richly hued floors flow throughout. In the formal living and dining rooms, ceilings with sturdy vigas soar to lofty heights, creating a wonderful feeling of spaciousness. The cook's kitchen includes an island with counter seating and a breakfast area; it opens to an inviting family room with a kiva fireplace and sliding glass doors. The primary suite offers a luxurious bath that features a dual-sink vanity, a shower, and a soaking tub. The fourth bedroom or studio/office has a private entrance, clerestory windows, and a ceiling fan. The family room and the owner's suite open effortlessly to a shady contemporary portal that gives way to a flagstone patio and the landscaped rear courtyard--all basking in wide-open views of open space and mountains. A bright, spacious laundry room with ample storage and a sink makes household tasks easy. The home has been lovingly maintained and updated with new roofing, paint, countertops, and stucco as well as a newer boiler. A generous motor court and a two-car garage complete the appealing picture. The location is near the community college, close to shopping and next to a large protected open space.
