Here's the trade everybody makes to get into La Cueva: you take the district and you take whatever house comes with it. Tired kitchen, dark hallway, a floor plan from another decade. You tell yourself you'll fix it later, and later costs more than you think.This is the version where you don't make that trade.It's 2,527 square feet on one level, built in 2004 in Desert Ridge Trails, and it's been well kept. Open plan, so the living areas flow into the kitchen instead of being walled off from it. Large center island, stainless KitchenAid appliances, and ten skylights overhead pouring light into the middle of the house. I counted them, because ten sounded like a typo. Refrigerated air, not swamp. Water heater was replaced in 2022.Four bedrooms. One is currently a dedicated home office with the desk built in, and it goes back to a bedroom whenever you want. Every single closet is custom California Closets, so the organization is already handled instead of being next year's project. The primary sits at the back of the house. Three car garage with built in custom storage. The backyard has a built in grill and a custom pergola on a 0.16 acre lot, which is the right amount of yard for New Mexico evenings and the wrong amount to spend a Saturday on. North Star Elementary, Desert Ridge Middle, La Cueva High. Shopping, dining and parks are a few minutes out.The district is the reason you're looking. The house is the reason you'll stop.
